Hello! I've got a question - are you taking into consideration user demand in your rarity rankings or just the frequency of visibility in cave?

For example: I would rank CB Gaias much higher than other xenos. They're not comparable to CB silvers or golds, but I would say that they deserve a higher ranking than "rarish." Their visibility in cave is probably the same as other CB xenos but there seems to always be a constant demand for them that makes them harder to obtain. Same for CB green coppers.

I understand user demand for certain breeds based on popularity/date of release makes values of certain CB breeds change a lot, but I think CB gaias/CB green coppers defy those in that they have continually maintained their high value over time.

It would add another level of complexity to a new rarity ranking to factor in user demand, but I think it's very much worthwhile. How many times have I seen the "Question About A Trade? Come Here" thread with questions of "What is this CB worth? Or that CB worth?" and it'd be awesome to have a ranking that accurately reflects trading value.

Another edit I'd like to suggest: trios should be listed as "uncommon-ish." There is such a low demand for trios it's ridiculous. The trading threads are always full of trades with them and there are always users questioning why they can't get this or that for them in a trade. I also have found them occurring quite often in the biomes - more than I've found gemshards, another "uncommon."

Love the idea of a new rarity ranking, keep up the good work and discourse.
