Looks like Ernie just broke the news to Bert: the book IS canon


Even Mr. Jackson can't believe this sh*t.

Idea from the wikia boys about the google doc-

Idle thought: maybe they should consider splitting the list into two groups: actual errors (such as the quarian Ugho being alive in Deception when he died in Ascension) and discrepancies (Kai Leng attacking Gillian on his own with no backup in Deception when in Retribution he had a squad of Cerberus agents, and other stuff that isn't outright wrong or impossible).

You know, with the official release so close...I bet right now, out there in the world, a certain somebody is contemplating whether they should sticky this thread or start a new one

Whoa, we're up to SEVENTY-FIVE entries. I'm starting to think that we should consider organizing this in a different fashion, as this list is becoming somewhat unwieldy.


So...we ARE including grammar issues? Because that would include several hundred entries.


Like someone said to be safe wait till tomorrow. And yeah I do think this needs to organized a different way. I also don't thank every single mistake needs to be counted as a canon mistake rathar some could be counted as lore or fact mistakes. Just my 2 cents.

 Yes, the female salarian is unusual but not improbable and therefore not a mistake.


The fact that over 90% of the species is male makes it improbable by definition.


You're being anal. There's NOTHING suggest that it's an impossibility that a female salarian could be a merc, no matter how unlikely. You can't deem something to be in error just because you don't like it. That just serves to illegitimize your other efforts.


It's still something to be remarked upon - it's like if you went to Ethiopa and found a Japanese man there - you'd likely have a question or seven.

Benjamin, improbable or impossible, which it's going to be? You are changing your argument.

No, you're just not getting the actual problem.  It's not that she's there at all.  It's that no one bats an eyelash.  Nick especially should be astounded that he's actually seeing one.

That would be wrong for me. Grammar issues aren't about mass effect issues.

The message must be don't **** with the mass effect's universe.

if you haven't committed seppuku after being in this thread for this long, you won't do it ever.

Music is keeping me sane right now.

So, for the organization of the Doc I'm thinking of doing something like splitting the list into sections like: Technology Errors, Character Inconsistencies, Lore Errors, and Timeline Errors - or something like that. Anyone else have thoughts on the matter?

Earlier on the page I posted the idea of a Wikia member. They'd agree with you.

No its not improbable but 90% stick to being clan leaders or politics or any other position. Sure you could see a female Salarian Mercenary.The females are also their to be mothers and I think that would also be frowned upon Salarian society.

So people, how long before the spoilers come in?

Edit- Balmung31, you watch wrestling too?



Used to.  Cannot do it anymore.  It's just forgettable these days. 

Best I can do is Botchamania.

Vince Russo is fine as long as someone has him in CHECK. If not, he goes crazy. Hence, I don't watch TNA. I watch WWE.

WWE being Drew's books and TNA definitely being Dietz's.


So my theory still holds up, since it seems NO ONE was keeping Dietz in check.  Plus he has a history of horrible writing in the past that guys like Hudson and Walters should have been at least SOMEWHAT aware of. 

It's looking to me like WCW all over again.  In book form :sick:.
