If you increase galactic readiness using multiplayer, can you still get the “worst” ending to Mass Effect 3?

Question

So in Mass Effect 3, progress in the multiplayer campaign carries over to your single player game. However, does having played a lot of multiplayer prevent you from seeing some "bad" endings you might otherwise see if your readiness is lower?

Answer

There is a decay of Galactic Readiness, so you could stop playing multiplayer for awhile and let it decay back down to 50% if you want to see the 'worst' ending.
