I have no clue what to even say about this one. Not really my proudest creation but I sure did like the idea, initially. I know the way I've ordered Emerald and Lapis production is a tad on the unprofessional side but according to my knowledge and research there are no actual numbers I can give. For a short period of time I also considered including quartz and even potentially glowstone but did eventually choose not to. Generally would just appreciate any and all feedback (especially regarding the way this quiz is structured).
