**ed** , I’ll let peeker confirm, but are we sure he was actually claiming Vig there as opposed to offering a hypothetical? ---

I looked at the scenario, and it doesn’t matter if Mental investigates a Scum either. While it won’t confirm one of the unconfirmed, there’s a big enough cushion for us. The only case where that would be an issue would be if he were to investigate 2 Scum after they kill the Vig toNight, and, well if he does, we win anyway. ---

3 masons in an open set-up is powerful. having a jailer to protect them were one forced to claim is also powerful. Of course, I’m not sure. We got really lucky with Pleonast. Also lucky that Suburban was a sleeper and he slipped. Also lucky that pede claimed Vanilla and put himself on the chopping block. ---
