Has anyone ever encountered more than 7 suspects in an AI case?

I haven't as yet, but heard a rumor that someone had 8 suspects once upon a time.

(I have just commenced my first villian hunt and would hate to make this type of error)

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

There was some interesting discussion about this not too long ago:

One possible explanation for the "8 fakes" is that people may have been using an older version of sleuth helper that was configured to correspond to the 'once upon a time' sleuth days Coco is talking about. Another is just that there are sometimes cases that are just...well...wonky, for lack of a better word. To whit, we've seen a screenshot of a case with FIVE pieces of witness evidence. My own experience though has been that I can categorically say that I've never seen 8 fakes.

Thanks Crunch.

Me either, Reda. Well, that has reassured me. In my mind, the magic number is 7!

If I encounter anything to the contrary, I'll be sure to post it.

Thanks everyone.
