We're at war. No one wants to admit it but this thread is under attack. One very specific man might be all that stands between 5 stars and the greatest threat of our brief existence.


That's why TIM brought me back after I was killed by a Paragon surprise attack.


Are you saying that the paragon fanbase is behind the abductions of entire TIM threads?

That I am or are you trying to suggest Cerberus is behind it and using the abductions and the threat of the Reapers to manipulate me?

Does anyone here know what exactly "skyball" is supposed to be?

I ask because TIM is apparently a fairly avid player.

Note that only the Lazarus Cell has ever really been on the "front lines" against the Collectors. And, of course, in my case they're no longer Cerberus...


Intel wins the war, not bullets. Or rather, the combination of both, but intel always comes first. Let's not forget who enables Shepard to fight on the frontlines. Ah, but some Paragons have so very short memory. So conveniently short.

No longer Cerberus? When did they cease to be Cerberus, I wonder? Before or after going to Omega-4 relay? Convenient, if after - and now Shepard's going to claim all the credit for this victory, and Cerberus suddenly has nothing to do with it. Strange, if before - because they didn't receive the notice. And, of course, Shepard is not Cerberus?

Shepard, resurrected by Cerberus, goes into battle on the ship made by Cerberus, with the team recruited by Cerberus, into the location Cerberus gave him, using the IFF Cerberus informed him about, together with the squadmates Cerberus found for him, sponsored by Cerberus, wearing Cerberus clothes, using Cerberus weapons, receiving all his crucial missions directly from Cerberus' leader, reporting personally to TIM, constantly saved and informed and enabled every step of the way by the AI made by Cerberus.

But of course, Cerberus has nothing to do with it all...

:lol:

Ah, denial.

TIM saved humanity from the Collectors. He's humanity's lord and savior.

I always imagined it was some sort of video-game of sort.

I have nothing to add to this thread save that I support both the Illusive Man and his excellent sense of style.

And I imagine Skyball as being similar to those computer games where you have to use the platform the bounce the ball to destroy the blocks.

Blitzball but in space instead of water.

TIM must be a glutton for punishment if he enjoys that terrible game then.

Could be, but I don't think so. 

Samara's apparently and avid player as well, she took first place in a amateur skyball tournament.  I really can't see her ever playing a video game.

Oh really?

Then I guess it must be some sort sport then perhaps? Like mentioned above.

Paragons don't want to admit it, because if TIM is the leader and savior of humanity, then what does it make them for shooting TIM and enjoying it? Villains.

He did a service for me, yes. I'm not going to let myself be bound into inaction by that.

After. Cerberus helped me, yes. Its role is now fulfilled. If it won't aid us against the Reapers, it can now be destroyed safely.

Paragon Shepard is the biggest villain in the game without question. Not only does he screw over TIM to satisfy his own deluded ego and self-rightousness but the Council, the Quarians and countless others.

One of TIM's sexual liaisons is a skyball champion. I really think it's a sport. I imagine it's something like golf in space. Maybe in zero gravity. Perhaps something that requires good observation and concentration.

The Council and quarians are fine, what are you on about?

If you're treating your allies like tools to be used and then disposed of, it's no wonder you expect TIM to behave the same way. It must be hard getting allies with this approach...

Really? I always thought of it as being willing to go with a mutually beneficial arrangement, but not placing them above the law just because we helped each other once. If they were to undo or atone for their past transgressions, then maybe, but I don't see that happening.

In any case, I have plenty of allies.

Paragon Shepard unleashes the Rachni onto the galaxy,wants to cure the genophage and strengthens the Geth.  He's a major douche who wants to satisfy his ego no matter the political consequences and how many lives he endangers.

I'm iffy on the genophage, personally. And I'm fairly sure the rachni and geth will be reliable enough allies against the Reapers, and hopefully beyond.

I made those Paragon choices too, and it has nothing to do with ego.

I just want to stir up maximum amount of chaos in the Galaxy. Humans thrive in chaos, unlike Asari, Salarians, or Turians.

Funny, because they did nothing to prove themselves as allies against the Reapers, while Cerberus did, countless times. You don't choose allies based on their past actions and how they revealed themselves? What's your basis, then?

Cerberus is quickly proving themselves enemies, thus making the question moot. I'd have been willing to accept their help against the Reapers if they were actually going to help in ME3, but as it stands...

My main Shepard did so too for the same reasons but sadly that's not how the games percieves it.
