Plfranke can go too far, but he makes valid points about some things. He's a good guy and has been part of the thread for a long time. And he is right that someone's on topic to off topic ratio should strongly favor IT, or at the very least mass effect.401 Kill wrote...
@plfranke Lol, I love how you make a big deal about going off topic, and then immediately accuse Estabanus of making up a sister. REALLY!?
Yeah!!!estebanus wrote...

Back on topic then: I'm finishing my wall of text about closure, and I made 2 videos about synthesis yesterday.

I'm an epistemolgical skeptic at heart, so I don't believe I can truly KNOW anything with 100% certainty. I just choose to act as though it is all real because the alternative seems dreadfully depressing and utterly boring.

Yes I would be happy to discuss the theory with him, but he has been rude as of late and I'm not sure why...spotlessvoid wrote...

My brother is really good at doing that, too. He does that a lot when he discusses religion and science with his friends.Hrothdane wrote...

All ideas are. I take great pride in my ability to entertain an idea intellectually without accepting it as truth. Also, see my signature

So here's a nugget of speculation for everyone. I don't believe that TIM was completely in the thralls of indoctrination until he implanted himself with Reaper tech. So if that suspicion is true...there is something seriously wrong with his tactics.
The Illusive Man wants to control the Reapers and believes that the Crucible will allow him to do so. With that in mind...why is he trying to cripple all of the Alliance's efforts? The more systems they lose to the Reapers, the less able they will be able to acquire to complete the Crucible, which is the very object TIM needs. Aiding the Alliance and betraying them in the final hour would be more wise. Why resort to these tactics?
I think it points to something about Omega that we don't know yet. Of course, I am very biased towards the idea of Omega being a nearly complete Crucible, so I'm opening the floor for other possible thoughts on just what is going through TIM's mind
I laughed at "Critical mission failure" and "Shepard commits suicide." Priceless.BansheeOwnage wrote...
@Hrothdane Same here.
@ Estebanus (and I guess Hrothdane) Here are the 3 similar and not very well made videos.
The Last Stand
Critical Mission Failure
Shepard Commits Suicide
Because he already had a crucible, like you said.TheConstantOne wrote...

I've looked at your sig before. There is a great deal of truth to it. If you think about it, there is even value to be found in false ideas: learning how to determine that an idea is in fact false conditions your mind to ponder more intricate ideas
ROTFL. I can't believe people started this discussion. Estebanusister was shot. She has plenty of free time so it's reasonable her brother would give her access to BSN. I'm not sure why they use the same account but it shows how much they trust each other.Dwailing wrote...
So is there SERIOUSLY debate about whether estebanusister is real? Because if so, whoever believes she's fake is, put bluntly, nuts. Estebanus talked about her plenty of times before she showed up, and I see NO reason to doubt him or her.

Indoctrination is what is going through TIM's mind. You could ask the same thing about why he indoctrinated his own forces too, if he worked with the Aliance he would not have to do this. Remember when TIM tells Shepard that "In the end our goals are simply too disparate." He knows that everybody else wants to destroy the reapers, so maybe he wants to find a way to control the Reapers before anybody can destroy them. That benefits the Reapers because he is sabatoging the efforts of those that wish to destroy the reapers.TheConstantOne wrote...

I want to know how TIM somehow knows what the Crucible does when all the best scientists from a dozen different fields couldn't figure it out.
So we have that settled.estebanus wrote...
