And how did Sataric get all these roleclaims, someone explain this to me.
*Shaojie Zhang read through the message on his computer monitor, feeling surprisingly calm. So death had finally caught up with him? Spending most of his life working for the Chinese Triads criminal organizations, he was very familiar with the concept, and trained to be fearless. Over the years, he had taken countless of lives himself; Both of those deserving of it, and innocents alike. He deserved his fate - That he knew - But he never imagined he'd feel so relieved knowing that the end had caught up with him, and his final rest was close.
He walked out on to the balcony to light himself a cigarette. The moonlight touched down on his scarred face, but although he had a nearly monstrous look about him, his eyes were very friendly. "At least I found my way before it was too late", he muttered to himself in broken English, thinking about the terrible deeds he had done over the years. It had taken an otherworldly invasion for him to finally break free from the Triads chains, his bosses willing to sell pieces of alien technology to the highest of bidders, regardless of their intentions. Not even as the world was falling apart right before their eyes did some men stop thinking about how to stuff their pockets with more money. It seemed that to some people, profits matter more than even the survival of the planet they live on. He sighed.
After finishing his cigarette, he went back to his computer and accessed his encrypted channels. He left a carefully worded message for his most trusted XCOM comrades. Instructions and suspicions, for the most part. But also a heartfelt farewell, and a thanks for being the only true friends he had ever had. He finished the message with the following segment: "I've crossed many lines during my life, but now we all face a common enemy. Make sure they are stopped at any cost."
He was ready now, to face whatever may come next. And as he prepared himself for the final battle of his life, he couldn't help but smirk a little bit. He had waited for this moment for his entire adult life. This was not how he would ever have pictured his life to end, but he was proud of the part he had played in saving planet Earth from the ruthless Aliens and the vicious EXALT organization. His inner demons finally laid to rest, he was certain that his brothers and sisters would succeed in defeating these threats once and for all, and soon. "... Just one more cigarette" he said to himself, returning out into the night once more. And as he blew out a breath of smoke, he saw the glare of the Snipers infrared laser-sight in the corner of his eyes. He turned to face the direction of his assailant, and although he was hidden in the darkness much too far away to be seen by Zhang, he knew that he would be in the snipers crosshairs. And so he winked, and grinned devilishly..*

Nicely written emails there, mister
Oath. I had a very good feeling I was right about you all along. I have spent all my gadgets, and I was bluffing when I claimed I had a medpack remaining before, so at this point I am just a Rookie with a troubled past - but at least you'll get the satisfaction of killing me before the angry horde tears you apart in the morning to come. If you will even survive until then. You may find yourself lying dead in your own pool of blood before sun rises.
One game, you should try to work together with me behind the scenes, and you'll see that I am not nearly as annoying or unfriendly outside of the thread if I actually trust you. I think most people I've worked with can vouch that I am fairly pleasant company if I believe you're innocent, rather than scummy. Nothing I say and do in the thread is meant to be taken personally. I do apologize for annoying you the other day - I did it on purpose - But I didn't mean to hurt your feelings or anything, just get a better read on you and find out if you truly had good or bad intentions overall. I hope that after this game is over, all the drama will all be water under the bridge. Well played. (Since you're not Town. If you'd be Town with this playstyle, you'd have sucked! Haha! But you friggin' know that yourself! So don't hold that against me!)
