This entire game confused me. Can someone provide an example of the diagram and walk me through question 23. Thank you. Much appreciated!

The diagram gets its own thread, so if you back out to the beginning of this Game in the forum hierarchy, you can read about how people set it up:
https://www.manhattanprep.com/lsat/foru ... -t397.html

If J doesn't review T, then he reviews S or U.

In this game, we know that M reviews 2, J reviews 1, K reviews 1, L reviews 1, and O reviews 1, 2, or 3.

J and M can't have any in common, so we either have
J = S
M = T, U

or

J = U
M = T, S

The common denominator of those two scenarios is that no matter what, M reviews T.
That's why (D) is our correct answer.

(A) flexible: J could do S or U
(B) flexible: when J does S, L could do T or U
(C) flexible: M might be doing T and U only
(D) mandatory
(E) flexible: O might only review T
