Since they have a relay in dark space, why not just turn the dial to use another relay in the galaxy instead of the Citadel relay?

This is basically what's happening in Arrival.  As for why they couldn't just keep choosing other relays, I'd say that since it seems there are only certain valid routes from one relay to another (as shown on the galaxy map), then it's clear that the relay in dark space only has two, and why would they worry about how few they have when it's 100% more than they've needed for however many millions of years they've been doing this?

Maybe the Citadel Relay only creates a wormhole in Dark Space? We're only speculating there's a relay in Dark Space. You know how big the Citadel Relay is, right, in comparison to the other relays? It's huge. So who knows what sits in Dark Space? Perhaps nothing? It's dark....

 

And no that's not what happened in Arrival. According to the writers they started flying to the Alpha relay in 2183 right after the Battle of the Citadel. This was decided right after Arrival came out. So FLYING TO.... not dialing in the Alpha Relay.... flying to it.

 

And Starbrat is an idiot. Remember that. Just listen to the dialogue and bulls*** that spews out at the end. Remember the Leviathans had their thralls build it for them - the Leviathans don't strike me as having the manual dexterity for fine work needed to build microcircuitry or anything really high tech. And the fact that they still thought the "intelligence" served its purpose tells me they're really stupid as well. Thus the dimwittedness of the Starbrat.

 

I'm sorry but picking this plot to pieces has become a past time.

If the reapers didn't leave weird **** lying around in the outskirts of the galaxy, no one would've been the wiser.

True. I'd hate to be the Reaper that had to explain to Harbinger why they left an artifact beside Alpha Relay that warned people of an oncoming invasion and ultimately led to Shepard thwarting their plans AGAIN.

Hmmm.... The Evil is Dumb trope. but Good is dumber.

[Harbinger disconnects from Project communicator*]

 

Harbinger: Our contingency plan has been discovered, and our relay has been destroyed. This hurts me.

 

Gopher: Well the Catalyst told me it was a good idea, so who am I to argue?

 

Harbinger: Silence, Gopher. That which shall not exist until the final installment leaves you solely responsible.

 

*One thing that bugs me is the fact that Harbinger was able to project itself on the asteroid in Arrival. Did the Project engineers install some kind of weird holo-altar for the team to worship the reapers on? What's going on here? I think they gave Shepard red sand when they locked him/her up.

 

Also, I'm calling red sand crimson cocaine from now on.

They were projection engineers.

 

Yeah, Shepard had some of this stuff while they had him/her locked up.

I put it down to Object Rho doing the projecting, but yeah, it is a bit strange. (Holographic projection through various walls and the rock of an asteroid?) The chat with Harbinger is nice enough that I'm willing to overlook it though.

[KaiserShep]

And then it turned out that Object Rho was basically the reaper equivalent of a GoPro camera that one of them accidentally left behind, and Dr. Kenson was just looking at its most recent vid.

Probably what happened is that at the end of the Prothean cycle the Reapers threw a huge rager. Harbinger then got so drunk he decided to film himself and post it online... only they destroyed the internet so he just dropped it there and was so hungover the next eon he completely forgot about it.
