Is the investigator a good role? Yes No It could be improved Sondz is a silly donkey

Now, the reason I don't like the investigator is quite simple; it limits down anyone's claimspace to two or three roles, and as such trying to be creative with your claims is just suicide. Besides, many roles suffer just because their invest results suck, which is just sad.

The invest is also a metagamers wet dream. Checking up invest results and going "well of course the serial killer would claim doctor! It's in the invest results!" or the other way around. Sure, it COULD cause alot of deduction, but it makes most ToS games feel like you're that one guy in pokemon who calculates how much damage an attack would do based on your pokemons attack, opponets defense, STAB, base attack, type weaknesses and all that instead of just playing for fun. And that's ToS with the invest!

Of course, just removing a role is bad, but I can't help but feel like it would be for the better. However, I wanted to see what the wiki would say. This isn't a wholehearted anti-invest thing, but I think it's time we brougt this up
