Hopefully not, considering "butter robot" has already been posted and it cannot be beaten despite Jade's disagreement!

This is a tyranny, not a democracy. One man, one vote.

As an aside, do you get medals in this game like in the previous XCOM? If so, I vote the first one we get be named Butt Medallion.

Nope, and I miss them, it was really cool having the dress uniforms and the shiny bits. I understand why (guerrilla organizations aren't known for handing out medals) but I still miss those.

I'm pretty sure that's a democracy.

Which means Jade is unfair and unjust.

I will admit, however, that he's been scrupulously even-handed. He is unfair and unjust to everyone, without fear or favor.

Jade is the man, and he has the vote.

Clearly, then, GuavaMoment is the only trustworthy one capable of deciding in such a fair-minded way. The man once stepped on a landmine for me, after all.

I humbly suggest Julian "Jade's Choice".

I can have moments of... eccentricity and sometimes be quite curious about things. Please forgive me if I do something foolish or rude.

As an aside, while we wait for Jade to return, here's an interview with Ananda Gupta who worked on EU and EW. The Firaxis stuff starts at 1:36:04.

It' weird how something that was added late in the design (the class system) is so central to the identity of the game.
