The Sword of Truth My sig and avatar comes from my favorite book, which is a part of that series.
I don't write fan fiction either (Though when I was 14-15 I tried writing a Star Wars book set after KotOR, but I got 2 sentences in and realised that it wasn't going to work... Ironically I found those 2 sentences yesterday...) Myself, I have been working on a MASSIVE project for the last 6 years which is best described as a Mythopoeia
Anyway, back on topic: The thing about Sifo Dias seeing the future war and going to have the army made without ever telling the Republic could work, and GL gave us practically nothing except that Sifo Dias died 10 years ago and ordered the Republic's army.

Yea, but GL Canon doesn't give you a blasted thing to work with... Movie wise Syfo-Dias was a Jedi who ordered the creation of the clones and died 10 years ago. The end. mystery solved. As far as George Lucas is concerned...
Well sweetheart, Im 48 and I taught high school English for over 20 years and if thats the best you can do in terms of expressing your thoughts via the written word I'd say go back to school because everything you've written rates a big fat "F". No one wants to read an opinion if the person expressing the opinion cant form a complete sentence. And for the record, you're wrong regarding Sifo-Dyas.
A Darth Plagueis novel was scheduled to be written by James Luceno and released in October 2008 by Del Rey about Darth Plagueis and his backstory. In an interview with Star Wars Insider magazine, Luceno said that he would like to write a future novel dealing with the search for immortality that both Qui-Gon Jinn and Darth Plagueis embarked upon in their own separate ways. However, in a talk show interview in February 5, 2007,[1] he indicated that the novel was currently on hold due to issues surrounding the revelation of Palpatine's backstory and Expanded Universe continuity concerns. On March 27, 2007, Sue Rostoni revealed in her blog that the novel has been cancelled, in an entry revealing an updated publishing schedule.[2] She stated the following: "I'm sure you've noticed that the Plagueis novel is not listed. It's true. The novel has been cancelled. We decided that this was not the right time to delve into Palpatine's back story and Plagueis's beginnings. You'll still see Jim Luceno around, though, as he's an author we are not willing to lose." ― Sue Rostoni[src] The announcements for the novel stated that Plagueis was a Muun. Leland Chee has confirmed that, since Plagueis's species did not originate in the novel, it is still considered his canonical species by Lucas Licensing[3]. The novel was replaced with Darth Bane: Rule of Two;[4] however, Luceno has said he still hopes he can convince the powers that be at LucasFilm to let him write the novel, and cited sales of Millennium Falcon could help influence that. [5]
I'm thinking that it was all part of Palpatines grand scheme for Sith power. Palpatine is not only the Supreme Chancellor for the Republic but, in many ways, the mastermind behind the seperatists, having Dooku do his bidding. 'Palpatine' gets an army to destroy the droid seperatists army and then 'Sidious' uses the same army to destroy an already weakened Jedi Order and begin the Empire.
Anyway, to tie this in to Sifo-Dyas, perhaps, and again this is all speculation, that Sidius used what was maybe the natural death of Syfo-Dias (or perhaps a death caused by the Sith) for conveniant opportunity. Sidius gets Dooku to demand the clone army for the Republic guised as Syfo-Dias. This allows Palpatine to seem to innocently come across an army he has 'no idea about' and put it to use against the seperatists (whose army, in ways, is also created by the grander plans of Palpatine/Sidious). Sidious uses both armies to create Galactic War, eventually shutting down and destroying the droid army and replacing it with the more intelligent clone army.
if all those out there moaning about this guys grammar were intelligent enough to know it is missing, surely you could put it in mentally while you read it. That is if you are able to multi-task
The Syfo-Dyas story is a silly one, a weird construct from Lucas, which prolly has a clever backstory, but since we never learn anything about it, it is rather lame.
also vader was luke's father, soilent green was people, and rosebud was actually a sled. on that note...wut?
