Hi all, was reading the posts but couldn't find time to reply. I thought the night would bring a collective 1 killing from the Mafia. Maybe naive to the fact the tempo increased and people were just ready to bang bang come night time. My thoughts and observations in no particular order, it will read like a brain dump :
I don't think it's a coincidence that pershy, chanakam2020 and Maxleod are silenced. My feeling, like joshzam, is it relates to the cat meows. Chanakam2020 meowed x4 and Maxleod x1 (5total). Maybe a magic number, maybe not.
Maxleod's short post of "all I have to say is meow" seemed like they had to "get it in" for the day1. Raz tallied up posts and had Maxleod at 1 post total. To avoid sticking out he slid in a 2nd post under the wire that jumped on the halrob64 vote train, recycled popular opinion, added no value. Now he's silenced. No one would actively want to keep him quiet for the no value they were providing. Mafia.gg says cats are Mafia aligned and can silence others or themselves, I am suggesting Maxleod silenced themselves because it's easy and guarantees survival to the next round. Their signature is also a cat.
chanakam2020 - Did the meow thing and is also silenced now. Coordinated or not with the other 2 silenced people, chanakam2020 also chose to silence themselves or did a killing. My swiss cheese evidence on chanakam2020 is shaky. But asking pre-game about a potentially complicated role "And I think I understood ( Will PM Raz if things not clear when game is going, This is my first ever Mafia game" & wanting to clarify rules around if "* There can be only one doctor" (kill prevention), leads to believe they had a Mafia night action kill/silence ability. It would leave me with questions as a 1st timer too. I admittedly posted pre-game I had questions for Raz, so I understand how that looks. "What is the best way to lynch", referring to fellow town as "us" and aware of Maxleod's online whereabouts "Maxleod is frequently active in Global chat & I show him few Hrs ago at global chat", could maybe add to that theory. Knowing a doctor was mod-killed before night time could have given added comfort for moving ahead with their plans.
Pershy - purrred on Day 2 "TtzzzztTTTTTzzzzxxxxxxPrrrrrrr

" after being silenced. A slip up perhaps? I'm more leaning towards that pershy was silenced by someone, as pershy was more informative than the other two, sharing the note they received etc. More active participants seem like the one that would be targeted for silence.
I have more thoughts, I'll post later. I have no idea how everyone combs through this info so quickly. It takes me forever to gather my thoughts.
