    I'll use my first character, since prattling off the choices of all 13 would be rather boring for us all:

    I didn't join the Thieves Guild and I destroyed the Dark Brotherhood

    I aided the Imperials in their conquest of Stormcloak lands

    I supported the Imperial supporters, the Battle-Borns (plus their name sounds alot cooler)

    Good question to come back here (sorry about that, RL is eating up game time). Going by my first character obviously:

    - Companions

    - Imperials

    - Blades

    - Thieves' Guild

    - College of Winterhold

    My current character (The Librarian 2.0) has fallen with the Thieves Guild and is having a blast with the Thieves Guild quests. I've not even made contact with the Dark Brotherhood yet with any character - just got the message about the kid in Windhelm, but not responded!

    And I haven't yet taken any character into the Civil War quests for either side yet.

    I've got soooooo much to do in Skyrim

    I thought the Librarian was anti-guild?

    Well, there was no way to get many of the books without stealing them. So it seemed that falling in the with the Thieves Guild was a natural development.

    It's a purely pragmatic decision

    Haha, that post sounded pretty nerdy sounding.

    Surprised you didn't add

    EDIT: That one looks pretty bad barely supersized...

    CAUTION SPOILER

     

    i joined the dark brotherhood so i could kill people that might really annoy me. when i got abducted by astrid, i went to talk to the people she wanted me to kill so i could figure out who i was supposed to kill. so the firt guy i talked to sounded gay. the girl i talked to souned like a b***h and the last guy was way to calm and not afraid of me. so i killed all three of them. then i also get to kill that orc bard lurbuk. i hate bards. they annoy me. i also got to kill the emperor and that one beggar narfi.

    i joined the imperials because the stormcloaks are racist

     and i hate the gray manes and battle borns

    I'm going with my first character Grimnr:

    College of Winterhold

    I didn't support the stormcloaks or Imperials

    Grey Manes because they are more humble and not stuck up like the Battle-Borns, that and they hate the Thalmor almost as uch as i do.

    On which play through? Overall I did all of them to get the whole Skyrim experience.

    Companions
    College of Winterhold
    Thieves Guild
    Dark Brotherhood
    Bards College

    Right now I'm not choosing a side in the war, but I support the Empire (but not the Thalmor)

    LOL! @ ROFL!

    I thought he was back for a moment!

  • May 22, 2012 11:59 AM EDT

    I've chosen all but I'll tell you my preferences. 

    *Thieve's Guild

    *Stormcloaks

    *Gray Manes

    To me there are both flaws of the Imperial and Stormcloak side, but I felt that I agreed more with the Stormcloaks.

    Battle-Born= Imperial

    Grey Mane= Stormcloak :P

    Dark Brotherhood every time, never played the Thieve's Guild but will do eventually. Played through Imperials and I am currently half way through Stormcloaks but plan on leaving it til after the main quest as I heard it is slightly different if you haven't sorted the civil war out. And I only recently got involved with the Gray Manes...at least I think it's the Gray Manes, I've just saved their son from a Thalmor fort anyway. Haha I guess their pathetic feud isn't that important to me.
