Frankly, I'm getting sick of all the Jedi popping up recently. Just how freaking many survived the war and Order 66?

No, it's their skin, too. Early in the book, Shimrra slashes one with a saber and it's said a regular warrior would've been sliced in half.

Ten thousand, I think, although I think there were something like two thousand casualties during the war.

Yes but I thought in Inferno when he duels Caedus, doesn't he use some sort of protection bubble thing to counter his force lightning? and also in the Unifying Force, Jaina describes his mastery over the lightsaber looking like he was wielding 20 sabers at once. So why wouldn't he be able to block 10 saberstaffs?

I believe there were more than ten thousand. It is just that only ten thousand participated in the war. There were jedi who did not.

2000 died in the war? Is that including order 66? If not, then that means 1/5 of all jedi died, which is a LOT.

Also, if there are only 10000 in the entire galaxy, then why do people say "oh, Star Wars universe beats X because of the jedi"? I mean, if there are only 10000 jedi, then a few legions of the clone army could beat all of the jedi in the galaxy.

Not quite. One jedi can be equal to an entire legion. And powerful jedi such as Yoda can be superior to entire legions.

And what is x?

There were 10,000. And no, silly goose. The 501st suffered horrible losses raiding the temple. And at the time it consisted of most Younglings, Padawans, some Knights, and Shaak Ti. Oh, and Cin Drallig. Jedi>>>>>>>>>clones.

Probably star trek. That's the most common comparrison I've seen. Also, the clones only killed jedi because they didn't have malice in their hearts- they were just following orders, like any other day. The Jedi were also too spread out for them to help each other. As RotS says, "It was the ultimate Jedi trap."

Sort of:
Jacen stopped pulling and started to swing his free hand around. Luke was ready, had been expecting this since the fight started. Still flying through the air, he raised his own hand, palm outward, and pushed the Force out through his arm to form a protective shield. The lightning never came.

Instead, Luke was blindsided by something heavy and spiky, and his body exploded into pain as he slammed into a durasteel wall. He found himself pinned in place, trapped by a bed of thorns Jacen had hurled across the cabin.

I'm not sure but I think the fact that he was in the force meld helped.

The Force-meld helps multiple Jedi coordinate themselves better; it doesn't make them more powerful, IIRC.

Wookieepedia isn't a source, but it mentions that Jedi could "draw strength" from those within the meld and improve their abilities.

I was going by a sentence in JvS: Battle-melds permits a group of jedi to become stronger than if each stood alone,while also enabling them to communicate with one another through the force.

I'm definitely going to need to see an actual quote, but it's a distinct possibility considering I've only read three NJO books.

No. If you try to chalk up that entire feat to the battle-meld, I will have to cyber-slap you into oblivion.
