Not a question but im sure someone has wondered about it...
Blaze spikes kill gives pearl light (atleast if kill by nin af body)... always thought it would be azure >.>
I'm sure only a bunch of nerds would argue over a color

I don't see what's wrong with "green". It's not like people would get it confused with the red or blue exclamations.
maybe not now but people used to think / argue that there was a green and others would think there was a yellow and people thought they were different triggers at one time I'm sure it made it confusing for discussions before the table of known triggers had been formulated.

Yeah lights in abyssea are far from perfect lol but Im guessing anytime a mob kills themselves with an auto-attack it's just "*** it, give em pearl"?
Do en-spells on a weapon create azure? maybe no additional effects do and it kicks in the last hit before an additional effect kills it?
I have never said Grellow. I just call it yellow and everyone I know calls it yellow.
Why is it that people eyeball estimated drop rates on things and swear by them? Just because you killed something 4 times and got the drop, doesn't mean you can post on wiki that it has a 25% drop rate.

I'd say because drop rates are trivial,
I've spent hours upon hours camping NMs for drops
hoping for the wiki % but understanding it is still random.
If you have a % to donate then at least there is a base,
if others are going to follow that like scripture...
So be it.
When two planes nearly collide in mid-air why do they call it a near miss? It's a near hit.. A collision is a near miss ~insert crashing noises~ "Oh look! They nearly missed!".
Near miss does not mean "nearly missed", it means "that miss was too close".
I see what you mean about "near hit" and that we want them to miss. Think of it this way. Planes miss each other all of the time in the air. Those are all misses, and they are very far away from each other. Controllers try to keep all planes about 1 mile away from each other side to side, and 1000 feet away from each other up and down. When planes come closer than those boundaries, steps are taken to separate them before they get too close. This is still a "miss".
If, for some reason, planes are allowed to get so close that they could collide, then 2 things can happen: they collide which is a "hit", or they miss each other which is a "miss", but it got so close that it is called a "near miss".
Think about it from the controller's stand point. Their job is to ensure "misses" all day long, and keep planes as far apart as possible. When a "near miss" happens, something must have gone wrong, but it was still a "miss".
Below is a link that traces the use of the phrase back to WW2 where it was short for "a miss that was nearly a hit".
It is also used to rate bombing runs. If a bomb misses its target completely, it is a "miss". If it hits its target and destroys it, it is a "hit. But lands close enough to do damage, it is a "near miss".

Is it just me or aren't the primary colors Blue, Red, and Yellow... not Blue, Red, and Green?

They're RGB, Red, Blue, Green
Depends on what you're talking about. Light is RGB, paint is RBY, and Ink is CMYK (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Black).
