I agree. I think at this point I’m inclined to believe that the Mason claim seems a little convenient. Not to mention, **TexCat** was another possible person that the **Krayz** wagon may have been engineered to save, so it’s not unlikely that she saw this claim, knowing that it would largely clear **Jan** , and that **Ben** would probably still go down eventually, so she would be the obvious candidate for who the **Krayz** wagon was saved. So, she might as well put her neck on the line now and hope to get a potential Seer dead.

The risk here is losing a possible mason, but it also seems to be a pretty good fit for the events of Yesterday and Today. So, we need to settle this out. I’d still like to hear from **Charlie** though.

Hey, big surprise given your earlier lazy vote, that you’d rather put it on me than resolve a fairly obvious scenario where we can catch two scum. An awful lot of smudging on me with no substance at all since you voted me earlier in the day for my vote on **Ben**. You’re striking me as an overly defensive scum seeing his team going down in flames right now. I’ll have to do an analysis of you after we get all this crap sorted out.
