*quality because change is sometimes good.

[edit] and that rainbow is AWESOME.

Anything else. The history of De Beers is enough reason.

Sapphire: http://i.imgur.com/ny9d4.png
Emerald: http://i.imgur.com/dah5H.png
Amethyst: I didn't bother. Too close in color to ruby.

Of course the next "problem" we run into is that sapphire and ruby are both the same mineral, corundum, and so are of roughly the same value, with ruby having an ever-so-slight edge. It would be silly then, to get to 500 and have your gem downgraded.

Emerald, however, is far more valuable than either ruby or sapphire.

The country is going down the pooper and the siftrostocracy are complaining about the color of their giant diamonds?!

Diamonds are only precious because debeers keeps them locked up in a vault and controls the supply of them. This increases the value of them so that they can make more cashola. They are actually very common. Emeralds on the other hand are much more rare and beautiful.

What can I say, I am of the superficially minded variety. Although to be fair dickish, the country I live in isn't going down the drain just yet

I say keep the diamond and just call it a white sapphire.

I don't like gold so, I just like to pretend my star is made of the alloy Tumbaga and is depletion gilded.

Diamonds should be replaced by sunlight reflecting off of clear clean water.

you materialistic dickbags should all be replaced by machines. get back to work, meat drones.

also, i just call my ruby a blood diamond. and pretend it's the most valuable because its dripping with the blood of 50 children. i out rank you all. in style, class, wit and genital size.

I dont care as long as sift-ups still end with the mandatory cavity checks for gem smuggling.

Keep the name but change the color to green? Or whatever color wins in the poll?

I, for one, would like to have my crown replaced by this shiny pair: http://i.imgur.com/ylphL.png

I cant believe there is not more outrage at this albino line drawing standing in for a badge of honor.

I might find a sack of flour more attainable.

Stupid insipid pale smear of a nothing. I really dislike that gray smudge. At least silver stars have a pretty shape.
