Those are some awesome links, thanks for posting them. I have a related question:
I'm playing LS on my current play-through, and have just escaped Peragus. One of my goals this time around is to convert everyone except Canderous and Kreia (I've been told Canderous isn't possible) to Light Side Mastery. It would seem this is possible with G0T0, if I'm careful ... but what about HK-47?
If I use the afore-mentioned 'negative influence' technique, will this drive him to the light, of do I have to gain full (90-ish) influence and DSPs, then regain my LSPs to get him there?
I've seen a pic somewhere on this forum with HK in light side mastery, so it must be possible ...
Edit:
While I'm at it, I might as well ask how one converts your typically light-sided folk (Mira, Handmaiden, Disciple ... etc.) to the Dark Side in a DS game? I've read many of the influence guides out there extensively, but none of them seem to focus much on influencing the alignment of your party, just turning them into Jedi or getting plot awards from them.
