The Pyjack's Den! The ME News Discussion Thread

The whole thing was silly. It starts with Jen I have a dream crap Garson. For someone with a lot of credits, she sure is stupid when it comes to that.  Not realizing she doesn't have enough to finish the project until after the fact. Not investigating the benefactor before accepting all those credits and whatever else. As soon as the benefactor waved those credits in her face, her brain turned to mush. The benefactor took over. She went with it because her brain left her head. It was too late to start having doubts about the benefactor just before leaving the Milky Way. The same can be said about Alec.  I get he's sad his wife is dying, but it causes him to lose focus. He made no attempt to investigate the benefactor. What's funny is he doesn't trust his kids enough to tell them of his plan for their mother, yet trust an unknown to do whatever. 

If I was the top whatever in the Milky Way when Garson approaches me to join her on her sightseeing trip, I would ask her what defenses she has in place for the ships traveling to Andromeda. She will give a funny look telling me not to join her. They build these fancy ships with all kind's crap on them but forget to put in some kind of defense system in case they encounter any hostile forces.

A lot of the problems the Initiative encounter were self inflicted. Why didn't a pathfinder travel on the Nexus? Why wasn't a tempest on each of the ships? There was enough room in the hangar for one as seen on the Hyperion in the hangar. Why weren't the pilots to the fighters and the pathfinder team waken a short time before arriving in Andromeda? They can make sure all equipment is in working order. Have the pathfinder team go over any scenarios of what to do if/when they encounter whatever. And that time could have been used for the pathfinder team to become familiar with each other. It was funny little Ryder learning who Kosta was on the shuttle to Hab 7. The pilots can escort the Hyperion to wherever making sure the way is clear. 

There are many things that is.....whatever about MEA. The one that sticks out the most is right after gaining control of Ryder. In the next area, a machine fails, yet it's Ryder who has a scanner to find the fault. Why don't the maintenance personnel have one? You know, the ones who maintain the ship. What's the point of having them if they don't have the equipment to do their job? 

LMFAO.

I agree with you, guns blazing all the time is dumb.

I disagree with you that a video game trying to represent something remotely realistic within a space fantasy, should send people into combat situations without any combat preparedness. It is so Pollyanna... Or Alfred E. Neumann.

Does Gun Control mean using both hands? Does it mean banning guns? Banning for who? The people have guns... Riding in a giant space pillow with zero guns to defend them. Maybe the Tempest has a bunch of airlocks you can pew-pew through with your Predator 3000SUX.

Question for the Commander. If you met Samantha when she was bartending, what drink would you have ordered?
Question for Sam. How does it feel to kick the Commander's a** at chess?

I’m 99% sure this new “art installation” in downtown Montreal is a backdoor mass relay for the Reapers.

What character was gay? The book sucked on pretty much every level so it wouldn't surprise me.

Hey @drewkarpyshyn sorry for bothering you, but there is a theory that Kaidan Alenko is an ethnical ukrainian born in Canada. And his name in translation from ukrainian means "shackles". Can you confirm or reject this theory?

Drew Karpyshyn @drewkarpyshyn
Cannot confirm, but BioWare was founded in Edmonton… or, as us Canadian-born Ukrainians sometimes call it “Edmon-chuk”.

What is the point of posting these tweets here?

This is the discussion thread for your your already dedicated and ridiculously policed Twitter threads, Hrungr.

I understand if you are trying to drum up some conversation by reposting these tweets twice in two different places within 5 minutes of each other... But that is also bot behavior.

If you want conversation, I would appreciate more of your comments and less of your botwork. The botwork, to me, is the antithesis of a discussion forum to begin with, but that argument lost and so here we are.

Again, please make discussion here, not a second linking of a Tweet. Or, do away with comment rules in the "Twitter" thread that doth must be clean.

You haven’t lived until you kill a Thresher Maw by hitting it in the face with a Mako.
