Over on the 50,000 posts thread several of us have decided that Jasper deserves an award unique to him for his selfless contribution to RAT.

(some have even declared him IMPERATOR!)

Let's discuss it.

What medal/award should be given to Jasper?

It's up to us to decide since - unlike the real emperors - he can't really give it to himself.

IMPERATOR sounds fine, but maybe PONTIFEX MAXIMUS would be a better title? Big Grin

I think a title and unique medal would be both fitting and proper... of course we need the imperial guards, the palace, the eunuchs (I am sure a shortage of volunteers there!), this is just going to be complicated... Smile
