Ok so at the end of ME1 the council is thanking you for saving them from the reapers. Now all of the sudden they dont exist. Could anyone explain what the hell happend???
Did the council go brain dead or just Devs?

I have to agree with the OP, that bugged me. Obviously the writers are cool talented dudes but I don't think that part makes any sense... like doesn't Shepard have a Polaroid camera or something? Sensor logs on the normandy? Carbon-dating on the wreckage of Sovereign? I thought it was kind of laughable.
And as for the theories that the council does know and is covering it up... sure, that's possible, but that makes them either stupid or evil, and then shouldn't Shepard sorta see that? As it is, Shepard looks stupid for accepting it.

Wynne:
Actually I did have a discussion with the writer (Mac Walters) about this topic. And he explained his view, and ultimately decided that he preferred leaving it the same. And that's his job, as a writer, to pick what he thinks is best, so I don't have any problem with it.
And so I definitely am not implying the writers don't listen! They definitely do.
As for the Council being evil or stupid - Udina is maliciously stupid, and that's clearly portrayed, but if that's true of the Council also, its not portrayed strongly enough. I have a tendency to guess that the rulers of a successful peaceful galaxy are probably reasonably intelligent and good.
As for some of the cynicism of politicians, I don't buy it. Politicians aren't all bad. Hell, I've known some.
Oh yeah and to the guy that said I could learn a bit of politics from his post - you know nothing about my level of education. And what you wrote is pretty flimsy. I don't think you've done a very good job of teaching "politics." I learned more in PolySci 101.
