Yesterday, I joined a random lobby. One of the guys was playing with a geth engineer. The geth was colored purple.

Later, I joined a completely different lobby. There was another geth, also purple.

This morning, I joined a random game, and guess what I found. Another player, playing with a purple geth.

...and a couple days ago, I recolored my own geths purple and purple-ish blue. So I inadvertently contributed to the trend.

This has to be more than a funny coincidence. Seriously, what is going on? :huh:

Purple is a popular color. The GE and GI are popular classes. The two (three?) were bound to intersect.

If it helps, my GE is red. :P

Not just the geth. I've noticed a steep increase in the number of purple krogan too.

Most people find getting credits more amusing than trolling squadmates by wearing enemy Geth colors, thus they choose non-Gethy colors to minimize friendly fire, that wastes thermal clips and power cooldowns.

It's just weird.

Maybe it's just me. Since I focused on that particular color, I guess I've started seeing it everywhere. Like when you learn a new word and then you hear it and see it written everywhere.

My Geth Infiltrator is a metallic Orange with Blue Piping and lights... I doubt anyone has trouble realizing I'm friendly.

The Plural of Geth is Geth. It's like sheep, but purple.

Hmmm. Should I correct the title?

Will it be gramatically correct? "So many purple geth" is probably right, but sounds kinda strange to me. Meh.

Purple is not red or blue, so its a comprmise? My Geth are royal blue and the other is candy-cane colors, so maybe purple after promotion?

Using "purple" and "plural" in the same sentence? What, are you trying to mess with my mind?
My head hurts now.

It's funny because they're not used in the same sentence.

They are likely trying to use a loud color so that you don't mistake them for an enemy.

I use bright pink because pink is punk :P
