Eeek. That gave me a heart attack.

Actually I've got a question. Is the council live/die decisions the only thing that affects Miranda's opening speech for ME2? Wondering how many Sheps I'll need to set up.

firecleaner, it's a LONG list.

MA: less wrong impression and more that the story focused on the wrong things.

I tried to clarify what I meant in another post.

As far as the opening speech goes then its the council as well as who you choose to be the new councilor.

Meh it's somewhat redundant after 1350 pages...

I believe so, gutty, or at least the citadel attack in general is the only thing she explicitly references.

Hello all, how can there be problems staying on topic about Miranda? She's interesting enough, I have loads of Mass Effect questions about her and everyone else but must beat ME1 and 2 again. Just stopping by real fast during lunch before I go back to school, want to show support for Miranda.

So, go Miranda!

I saw it after I posted MA. I may do it, but Retribution will probably blow it all to hell. But I'd like to do something with a nicer Shep, though probably still a Sole Survivor. Less Miranda getting threatened with death, too.

Did I miss something? We've been no more OT than usual.

Right... I plan to do the intro after I find a save before the suicide mission. So many things to do...

Yeah, you missed something. Not sure if it was all the "ramming" talk, but thats about the time I went to sleep anyway so I have no idea what went on after that.

To be honest, its likely that when the troll was reported, Woo looked around and found offtopic stuff and just gave us a warning.

I assume we'll be fine and the thread will be ontopic-y for a while.

Just the obligatory moderator/dev post.  Had to be expected after that troll yesterday got reported.

I've been digging through pictures trying to find something and I thought this was worthy of reposting.

Detail for the win.

Heh, the Shep in the fic I'm working on is a loyal son of the Alliance. Spacer/Ruthless who can understand Miranda's loyalty to Cerberus better than most folks.

Not likely.  We've talked about all the topics we can actually answer for certain on Miranda a good dozen times or more so all we're left with now are wild imaginings, suppositions, assumptions and impositions.

As far as I'm concerned this thread has evolved beyond simply a thread to discuss Miranda into a thread for fans of Miranda, or Mirimaniacs, to congregate and talk freely.

As long as I'm brainstorming:

Has Miranda ever met Paul Grayson that we know of? Does she ever talk about the attack on the Idenna? If she does, how does she justify it?

To be safe we might have to split the OT into the group discussions.  The thread my be slower, but it won't get closed because we are having fun.

I haven't read the books, so I really have no clue. I'm thinking you would have to guess on these outside of Drew telling you "yes or no".

Maybe not, but it will slide down the pages at a rate of knots.  All support threads have an awful lot of OT, so I don't think this is anything to worry about, just the obligatory dev post after seeing the OT stuff amidst the trolling yesterday.  The Tali thread was allowed to run for 5501 pages and that was probably 5000 pages OT and 501 pages on-topic.

I enjoyed Ascension. It's not great literature, but it's engaging.


You can see how it colored my view of Cerberus a little bit going into the game hehe.

@ Darth: You're prolly right, this thread has a lot less OT than some of the other support threads.

blah blah offtopic is natural progression

I wasn't saying offtopic = bad. I was saying that posts are going to be more ontopic in general because some people will be reluctant to post offtopic stuff.

But whatever...

Yes she does at the very beginning of the game at Freedom's Progress.  She doesn't justify it exactly as say it was nothing personal.  My memory is hazy on that point.
