How about \"Gamma Blue\" after CB\'s release, then just go down the Greek Alphabet...but, \"Zeta Blue\" has to be reserved for the final test version.  Sounds good to me.

Actually, I would have thought it to be Mineral or Material Blue... but the \"M\"s already been covered.
\"Sapphire Blue\" make perfect sense to me, progressively get bigger and more complex (atoms>molecules>crystalline..etc) in both name and game =D. ..so does that mean the stage after that will be \"Diamond Blue\"? =P

Speaking of Sapphires, aren\'t sapphires, emeralds and rubies all essentially the same thing (save color)?.

As for the Greek Alphabet naming... Omega Blue would be the \"final\" test =P.

To answer Tzur...

Rubies are simply another name for red sapphires, but Diamonds and Emeralds are different.
I guess it\'s the molecular structure or something? I never payed much attention in Chemistry to be honest..
I was trying to think of the next level in the complexity scale, but came up at a dead end...
I am personally a fan of Somewhat Blue.

what about NB?
Not at all Blue?

I like Red Jelly Beans!

AFAIK, it\'s not just the structure but also the materials. Diamonds are made of carbon (they are simply highly compressed coal), whereas crystals are made of salts, the different minerals that make up the salts create basic properties like color, shape and hardness, while impurities usually change the basic color or create other effects like bands and such inside the crystal.

So for the complexity, we\'d need to find something that is made of crystals, like multicrystalline silicon or (!) the stalactite! Stalactite Blue? Or we would need to change to something not related to crystals but more complex, like organisms or something, or just organic blue. After that, it\'d be more macroscopic things, like planets and stuff like that, but one needs to be careful not to have it sound too much like classic SciFi. So maybe we\'d just move away from the complexity and towards something else.

This thread scares me... everyone is thinking WAY too hard about this. Certainly harder than the developers would; I can imagine them thinking up a bunch of cool-sounding words and picking one at random. Seriously... enough with the technical biochemistry analysi... :P

[Edit: Oh, it doesn\'t scare me so much anymore... I could\'ve sworn it was a few pages longer. O.o Maybe it was another thread...]

Personally, I\'d vote for Slightly Blue or Somewhat Blue! :D

Edit: It was mentioned by Gronomist here
http://www.planeshift3d.com/wbboard/thread.php?threadid=9687&boardid=13&sid=aede95ef3ac9bb9a7bfdecf6494eeb46

Another Edit: They IMO can\'t call anything AB anymore as this would clash with Atomic Blue, so no Azure Blue.



SB is Sapphire Blue, but it\'s no official codename. I know Venge worked to get it acknowledged at one point, and it probably will be the name that will be used, but as for now there really is no specific name. But feel free to call it SB, and maybe you can help Venge get it through as the official name. :)
