	There is a second birthstone for March: bloodstone. Since you include multiple stones for June, October, November and December, I think it should be included.

	i'm ok with bloodstone working, but at least display it... it looks completely different than an aquamarine

	I got 9/12. Missed June (stupid me), October and December.

	Yay! After failing miserably at the birth month flowers, I'm glad I found this one to feel better about myself. ;) 12/12

	so, this may be a stupid question, but how are birthstones assigned? does someone one day just up and decide, 'you know what, this stone looks like the type of stone that fits august'?

	Loki: dont make fun of august's birthstone thats mine! make fun of September's! And Rafa: You dont know what a diamond is? Diamonds are supposed to be a girls best friend!I say supposed to be because I rather prefer Jade or Quartz....

	Seriously? Turquoise is a birthstone? Good thing that's not my birthday month, that's cheap for a birthstone. Overall I liked the quiz though!

	@ mollymay - august is mine too. My Mom told me never to get her a mother's ring because hers is November and she said she didn't want an ring with ugly stones!

	A bit hard. It's weird that I used the pokemon games and got some of these...

	ScropioChick591:	Feb 7th, 2011 at 04:21 GMT	1 point
	this was easy but it was weird that that 4 december they accepted blue topaz as the answer when its not one they listed

	I keep missing amethyst because I can't spell it. Even cheating and typing variations into an auto-complete search engine, and I still fail.

	No cubic zirconia has an alternative to diamonds?
