Hi. Just getting rid of the redlink of my own name. I never checked Wookieepedia out until after Celebration IV. I read all the books, keep up with the comics, play the role-playing games, etc. All my books are in storage, so I'll only be working with sources I have electronically at the moment. I started a road trip in August, and am seeking a place to resettle, so until then, my editing has slowed down.
I'm working on expanding the information derived from the Living Force role-playing campaign. I played in it (missed the last year though), have the Campaign Guide and have almost all of the adventures.
And though I've rarely posted there in the last couple of years, I'm Sci Michaels on the TFN forums.

So, I had been doing the Living Force stuff. I've been on a roadtrip, ergo I haven't done much recently, but have every intention of getting back into it. Thus it was great to see Dorumaa, a planet from the Living Force campaign, featured in Republic Commando: True Colors. But what's this? Sep friendly?!
The Cularin system might actually be the system that has been most detailed on what it was going on there throughout the entirety of the Clone Wars, aside for Coruscant. The system reappeared from its disappearance in the second year of the campaign sometime after Attack of the Clones, and three years later the campaign concluded shortly after Revenge of the Sith. Sep friendly is something that the system never was. Even at the end when it declared sovereignty, it specifically did not join the CIS.
I mean, Dorumaa's a moon which orbits a planet whose only real feature of note is a Jedi academy.
Of course, the problem is, except for those few who played in the campaign, this was all invisible. From my experience, most of the people who played were role-players who liked Star Wars a bit, not Star Wars geeks who like to game a bit. So as far as people who played LF, has read True Colors, and posts to Star Wars sites such as Wookieepedia, I'm probably of a very rare breed who care about this little glitch. (Of course, we are a lot who care about glitches - over at TFN, some people were certainly angry about Verpine guns and Palpatine being called Supreme Commander of the GAR before the RotS novel).
Not that I blame Karen Traviss. I'm sure she had no more access to LF adventures than anybody else, and had much research to get through. I don't blame anyone, it's just frustrating.
And now I have to figure out how to fix it. Not for Wookiee - no original research - just in my head. There was a brief time when the Thaereian military's connections to the Separatists was discovered and they took control over the Cularin system, before being tossed out by the Cularin Militia and the Republic Navy in the next adventure. But that was much later (end of year 4, so should be around 20 BBY) than True Colors. Perhaps year 2-4 could have taken place in the first 478 days of the war, and year 5 was spread out over the remaining time of the war, but that seems awkward, and the system didn't seem in lock-down in the book.
The best fix I can come up with is that those in Zey's command knew about the Thaereian's link to the Seps, and the Republic just never acted on that intel until it was brought out into public light. Knowing that the military patrolling the system was in league with the Seps would definitely cause Ordo, Skirata, Delta Squad and Jusik to think of it as Sep friendly or enemy space, even if the ordinary citizens supported the Republic.

- Squint: "Emotional connections? Physical contact? No. Oh, there's a school in the Order that's always been pushing for that—wherever there's three people, there's one who thinks the other shouldn't have any fun. Their voices have become louder since the Sith War."

It was nice of John Jackson Miller to sort of address the seeming "prequel-ization" of the Jedi attitudes in KotOR as opposed to Tales of the Jedi, where Jedi could marry and have children and Masters could have multiple apprentices. Of course it's been my feeling that if the makers of the game were pretty much going to ignore TotJ both in story and in the visual style of the galaxy (Mandalorian armor for one), they should have placed the game 500-1,000 years later, instead of just 40.
