The lower a star is, the more likely you are to get it just as a random gift, like manna from heaven. The lowest stars, like Auburn or Drab, just drop at all kinds of random moments. The higher the level, the less likely you are to get it randomly. Generally to win a star Orange or higher, you need to win a game. To win a star Yellow or higher, you need to win a tournament. To win a star Blue or higher, you need to win a really important tournament or a major contest of some kind.
Thanks for that. Is there a thread that explains what people have gotten for “sacrificing” stars?
I have got a few cyans by sacrificing lots or orange and silver stars, but when I sacrificed the cyans it just gobbled about 5 of them up.

I don't know if there's a thread about it, but basically you can get a star two up to two levels higher than the star you're sacrificing. You can also get nothing. So, if you sacrifice a silver, you might get:
nothing (high probability)
another silver (lower probability)
an orange (moderate probability)
a cyan (quite low probability)
I think it's set so that overall you just break even in the long run, but in the short run if you're trying to join a tourney that costs a cyan star to enter and you don't have any, that's one way to get one.
By occasionally trading for a while, I am down to 10 cyan but I have 5 pink and 2 yellow.
I think I figured out what "dot hat" on my original post is. It should be I don't play many "non bot" games. I believe that was what limited me to cyan being my highest ranking stars back then.

Then again symmetry has a green one TeeGee awarded him. There must be some blue ones out there too.
Just curious about red ones.
Dot hat? Edit:
To win a red star you must prove that you are a true communist
