6[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6434785/1/Crystal_and_the_Diamonds Crystal and the Diamonds]] is a notoriously bad [[SelfInsertFic Self Insert Fic]] written by [[http://www.fanfiction.net/u/2447825/Hrvatska Hrvatska]] who claims that the aim of her stories is to show just how great Croatia is to the rest of the world.

8There is a plot floating around in there somewhere, mostly about how she gets put into a band to compete in ''Series/TheXFactor''. There's also a time machine that has been built and they are trying to go back in time and fix something (but just end up ruining it by shooting Churchill). Most of the time however, the plot is held up so the story can go into [[AuthorTract personal tracts]].

10!!Tropes Used:
11* AntiClimax: Everything that is set up is resolved quickly and easily. There is no such thing as climax in this story at all.
12* AuthorAppeal: [[Series/TheXFactor The X-Factor]] and [[UsefulNotes/WorldWarTwo World War Two]]? Why not?
13%%* AuthorAvatar: Crystal
14* AuthorFilibuster: The author does not like Serbians, so every once in a while she writes into the story something about Serbians being evil or some such diatribe.
15** She also doesn't seem to like Brits very much.
16* [[ChekhovsGun Chekhov's Gun]]: [[spoiler: Remember that lion that was released into the audience? It sneaks onto the plane.]]
17* ConflictBall: Given to Michael Bublé so that Crystal can argue with him and assert that she is right. Crystal often calls him racist, which is ironic seeing as Crystal herself is the most racist character in the entire story.
18* DisneyDeath: Matt and Fritz die in one chapter. [[spoiler: Crystal brings them back.]]
19* HeelFaceTurn: Fritz is a Nazi. [[spoiler: He gets to join the group on their adventures anyway.]]
20%%* GratuitousGerman
21* GodwinsLawOfTimeTravel: Inverted as the main characters go back in time on purpose to help the Nazis win World War Two, after deciding that Britain deserves to be bombed for bombing Dresden (or, as the fanfic calls it, 'Dresdents').
22** [[spoiler: They do this by shooting Churchill and the Queen]].
23%%* LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters
24%%* MultinationalTeam
25* [[ScrewThisImOuttaHere Screw This, I'm Outta Here]]: The main characters reaction when London starts getting bombed.

27%%* SelfInsertFic
28* SuddenlyEthnicity: Crystal reveals herself to be Croatian in chapter six.
29%%* Time Travel
30* UsefulNotes/WinstonChurchill: He gets shot by Marko. Multiple times. His only place in this story is to die over and over.
31* YeOldeButcheredeEnglishe: Everything Matt says comes out like this.
