GARRUS FAXS, er, FACTS:

*Garrus Vakarian doesn't care. Even if it was a one armed man who killed your wife and not you.
*The Citadel once had six arms instead of five. Then there was a little incident involving Garrus Vakarian...
*They say you can't make something out of nothing. Garrus Vakarian can make EVERYTHING out of nothing.
*Tali later discovered Haestrom's sun was getting so hot because it saw Garrus Vakarian without a shirt on.

Looking good, Dragonette!

Ok, I have a good 20 or so pictures of Turians and their tats, but I'm unsure how to present them. I've got three pics I can toss up as comparisons and see if my eyes are playing tricks on me or if I've found a few colony specific markings.



So, should I toss them up on my website? Or toss them up here? Or maybe LJ? Hrm... maybe I can toss them on LJ... some of the pics will make the threads here bulge out very unpleasant looking like.

[ThatDancingTurian]

Somewhere off-thread would definitely be best. LJ works as long as it's not one of those 'friends-only' things. I hate it when someone links there and then I can't see the post they're talking about. xD

[silentstephi]

Nope, won't be friends only, gonna post it to the ME LJ comm, so it'll be easily referenced if people want it to be. And I'll make sure to edit it if people want to send me pics they've picked up that I've missed.

New thread, I guess the old one reached it's limits.

Stanley Woo went around and locked all of the romance threads.

Seriously?  Wow. I hate to speak disparagingly of the BioWare employees, like ever, but that was just not necessary.

I'm doing Garrus loyalty mission again and holy crap! It's so freaking good and intense! I love the scene right before Garrus goes and takes position in the shuttle. Both Shepard and Garrus's digital acting is amazing in the mission. I have a dilemma, though. Should I let him take the shot, or not?

[Ms Cherissa]

Okay guys, couple of things here.

First? xkcd.com/386/  (the whole comic is worth reading but this one is my default favorite.) I am glad we got the COMMUNITY (which is more important than the THREAD) all together in one spot again. Thank you, Meta Ray Mek and of course Eradyn for getting the ball rolling in the first place. For those of you who missed it, it is exactly the pissing-in-her-Wheaties kind of thing that has happened before that gives MRM a little exasperation with fandom. 

We are our own worst enemies. Let's knock that $#!+ off, yo.

Second, to the person who wondered if the facial markings on the turian councilor and Nihlus meant they were related in a father/son way: No. Nihlus was born in a merc colony out of the hierarchy and didn't join the military til age 16, when his mother forced him to go at the time of his father's death.

Well, I went to the Tali thread and this is a quote from Stanley:

Stanley Woo said...

"HOLY LLAMA PANTS! 1149 PAGES?!


*ahem* Okay, I'm good
now. I really should been checking up on this forum. I'm going to shut
this thread down for sheer massiveness and encourage y'all to start a
new thread if you wish to continue the discussion.


End of line.

So it was a matter of length and keeping track of things.

[DeeLite808]

well long threads in general (many pages) put a strain on pulling the information from the database, and then setting up pagination.



1100+ pages can cause the board to slow down, because of the processing needed.



and if you have multiple threads that number in 100 pages range, then it can tax a system heavily.



A "shut-down" at around 100 pages is a good round about number.

[enormousmoonboots]

I keep having this problem.

[cedardryad]

I was surprised that the threads exceeded 100 pages. I remember in the DA:O forum once it went to 100 it was closed down.

Ack. I wake up and we have a new thread! 

Re: Garrus/FemShep's sex life: In response to the last threads discussion, I don't really see much of an issue regarding sex between turians & humans.  Chafing, yes, as Mordin mentioned might occur based upon the roughness of their skin against a human's when applied with heat and (ahem) friction.

But looking at the general shape and build of turians it seems that they generally are assembled in the same fashion as male humans.  The dangly bits go here, and whatnot.  The only issue, in my opinion, as far as comfort is concerned might be the boney ridge located on their chests that you can see in the ME1 concept art - that thing pressed up against a human's chest might actually hurt.  But as far as we've seen, turians are just as bendy as humans so I don't see why common sexual positions would not suffice.

Good stuff. Are there any codex entries reguarding these tattoos? If not I can't say I'd be the only one who would be happy to see some Turian lore released.

Hell, they have their own Galaxy of Fantasy game.

Shepard: There's something sweet and almost kind
But he was lost, and he was beat and so resigned
And now he's dear and so unsure
I wonder why I didn't see it there before

Garrus: She glanced this way, I thought I saw
And when we touched, she didn't shudder at my claws
No, it can't be, I'll just ignore
But then she's never looked at me that way before

Shepard: New and a bit alarming
Who'd have ever thought that this could be
True that he's no Prince Charming
But there's something in this turian I simply didn't see

Joker: Well, who'd have thought?
Kelly: Well, bless my soul
Mordin: Impossible to have known
Jack: ****, who indeed?
Chakwas: And who'd have guessed they'd come together on their own?
EDI: 'Love' is peculiar
Together: We'll wait and see a few days more
There may be something there that wasn't there before

Legion: Consensus reached, there's something there that wasn't there before
Kelly: There may be something there that wasn't there before
Jacob: What? With that cuttlebone?
Shepard: Shut up, Jacob. Important people are singing.

Awesome! Thanks for doing all that work! I knew I saw Sidonis' somewhere else, I just couldn't remember who had them.. They actually look the same color even, just with different lighting.

@Tootles: If their anatomy hasn't been altered from that concept, that sternum ridge thing does seem like it'd be a problem even for cuddles. Their clothes probably have extra support for that area just so they won't jab each other with it when they hug. ::snerk:: xD
