Conspiracy Theory
Ok, here's another weird coincidence. So Alec has been working on these crazy experimental implants (with Ellen) made to keep Ellen alive when she should be dead. During this time Miranda, Wilson, an...
i was always wondering does anyone think it's possible for the colonists to be experimented on during the 634 year slumber in cryo? i mean just how possible is it to make alterations to someone in suspended animation? and what would the possible extent of such alteration be if they were in fact possible? i'm thinking maybe some form of subliminal programming, that might have backfired in some fashion, hence the angry idiots who seem to have suffered complete mental breakdowns... lexi said there was a chemical imbalance effecting several of those scavengers, i'm just not completely convinced it was "naturally" occurring, cryo-sleep being natural... lol, not what i meant.
Entirely possible.
I mean, the Krogan also used that 600+ years to adapt to the genophage as best they could. They "only" achieved +4% viability, but that's statistically huge against a sterility plague.

I think I ran the numbers one time and with the genophage left as in and the Krogan quit being suicidal, the Krogan population should be net positive already at the .1% survival rate (being able to live hundreds of years and having children by the dozens). The 4% number they talked about was from when they were leaving the Milky Way (which means they probably missed Mordin's adjusting the genophage to their clan).

By the thousand. The number I remember is 1K but they don't say how many clutches. A 4% fertility rate works out to 40 surviving children/year.
How many of those survive to maturity is another matter.
