While I myself make the occassional spelling error or typo, you've been told several times now... It's "Thalmor" not "Thalmore" theres literally a search bar above this forum that will show you how to spell the names of factions and such. Now that THATS out of the way...

First off, you're citing an awful lot of of dubious sources, So I'd recommend you either stop that and find better ones, or perhaps (even better) just stop altogether. Lets start with the game data you keep citing. AGAIN, I will remind you things that were and are cut do not count for anything, I don't care if they wrote and voiced and entire scene where Ulfric bows to the Thalmor and hands over the Jagged crown, if it was cut it's meaningless and can't be used as any sort of evidence, other than a fun "what if" discussion. For that I'd suggest you start your own forum about "Skyrim: what could have been" where you can discuss that cut content with people who might agree with you. Secondly, I'd advise not using Michael Kirkbride's word as "canon" for several reasons... one of which, he HATES that word, second of which, he no longer works for Bethesda, thirdly the community as a whole doesnt agree to what he says, which would (of course) also be another topic for you to discuss elsewhere.

The closest you came to an "argument" was the lack of leadership within the Empire being an issue, you of course then put your foot in your mouth by repeating corruption and strife. I'll point out once more, not everyone killed the Emperor in their games, and if you believe so much in what MK says, you'd respect that fact as a possibility considdering his own beliefs are that everyone's playthrus are "canon."

Your whole bit on the Ebony warrior and Hammerfell made no sense what-so-ever. I'm forced to asked just how "focused" YOU are when typing. As a bonus tip, it's "Nudge" not "Nodge" and instead of "hinting" at your point, maybe you should just make your point.

And no, if you choose to see landfall as being some huge victory, then by all means, however since we're still pretty EARLY in the 4th era, and regardless of the choices made in Skyrim, the Lore suggests the Empire is going to have another fight with the Dominion, IF landfall was true, it could just as easily stand to reason the Empire held back the Dominion till the late 5th era. Stop acting so cocky like theres NO way to disprove your points, half the fun of this lore comes from the ambiguity and the discussions.

If you choose to believe all the cut content that doest exist, and the outside lore sources who no longer work for the company, and all your made-up fanfiction rules, then that's totally fine. BUT if you're not going to "discuss" then you can kindly leave. This discussion is about the Skyrim Civil war, and whats currently best for Skyrim. Not about the Thalmor plans to alledgedly destroy the towers, not about cut content, not about the 5th era, not about YOUR specific play through. It's JUST about the current Civil war, and peoples opinions on who is better suited to rule Skyrim. So Stop repeating yourself, and either add to the discussion or go away.
