This probably counts as a bug report. Anyway. Mendoza. I poisoned the violinist of the tango band, and killed him. I then went up to the area where you first meet Diana and decided to snipe his two bandmates. Lo and behold - another tango violinist had spawned in. They share the same surname, but two different first names. Strange. So I killed them and published the contract. I go into the contract, and the fourth tango violinist twin is nowhere to be found. So there you go.

It’s not a bug.
Each musician has a “hidden twin”, that was created to assure that even the most non-target-elimination happy player has a set of musician at the end of the level during the tango with Diana.
It also is the April’s fool featured contract “Shame On Me” (by Urben, under the guise of the Haven Island NPC named after him)
(they spawn in the bathroom by the way)

Are you saying that it’s impossible to do a complete map clearance in Mendoza, or it’s just impossible when I want to tango-out with Diana?

It’s entirely possible. There is only one set of replacement. One per musician, so three in total. It’s still a fail-safe, but just for one time.

I made a Deja Vu contract where you take out one of the musicians and then take out the replacement after they show up. Someone else, I think @Urben , but I can’t be sure make one where you take out more than one of them and then all the replacements. It’s an interesting/fun part of the game.

If you place the Pinot Noir and poison Vidal’s wine glass in the tasting room, while keeping the waiter who would normally serve her alive, he will poison Vidal for you. A nice touch.

The exit “catacombs” is not available in this mission. There are objects that block this exit.

I don’t know if I’m the first one to use it, as I haven’t read all posts relating to Freelancer since the CTT, but SAPO is the term we’ll now use to refer specifically to the Silent Assassin Prestige Objective.

If we actually want to start using an abbreviation for Silent Assassin Prestige Objective, I suggest SA PO with a space inbetween.
SA is already established. And having PO as a standalone abbreviation would be helpful for talking about prestiges objectives in general. Especially for talking about POs, that are not SA.
So there is SA on its own, there’s PO on it’s own and there’s SA PO.

While there’s nothing wrong with that, going by that same logic, we would need to separate SASO into SA SO. Not sure it’s necessary to do, as we known what we’re talking about when using it, and we’d know the same for for SAPO. PO in regards to general Prestige Objectives is good, but this one I’m thinking is gonna be talked about and referenced to the most, making it a special case. Either way, space, no space, I think we’ve got our shorthand for this particular challenge now.
SAPO feels like it’s for Silent Assasin Pit Only, when all the targets have to be eliminated at one of the pit stops in Miami :x
(It’s also a convenient anagram of SOAP, but sadly we can’t really do soap kills without glitches. I wish the soap would work like bananas do 
)

I thought about SASO as well. However, I feel there is a difference between SASO and SA PO. SA and SO are both ways to play the game; “challenges” if you want to call it that. They mean different things, but there is a similarity. PO is different, however. I struggle to put it into words, but PO is a different type of thing than SA.
Since SA and SO are fairly close, it makes sense to combine them into SASO without a space, I think. And because SA and PO are not similar in terms of what they describe, I believe it’s better with a space. Also, as an added benefit, the extra space makes it easier to distinguish SASO and SA PO. With “SAPO”, people might assume a typo.
In the end using a space or not is a minor thing. And we’ll have to see if PO and SA PO catch on anyways.
I will continue to spell everything out whenever possible.

H2SA or H2 SA
They both mean the same, and I think everyone knows what I’m referring to.
SAPO = SA PO is my vote.

In Mendoza even after Diana gives you an invitation to the party she still has one on her. Nice detail there that she also has one for herself.
