Having Millers AND Godfathers means you can't trust any result you get from investigation. That's why it's a problem.
No Millers. The Beginner Mafia standard has been pretty good so far, so adding more is NOT a good thing. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. Now, if you wanna do a gametype outside of Beginner Mafia, then sure. Go ahead. You can have a Miller and a Survivor in that, but do not screw around with the BM gametype as it is now.

Maybe this is the wrong place to ask this, but as a (relative) newcomer to this subforum, I have one nagging question....

...what's up with the ms paint penguin avatars?  There's half a dozen of you I've seen so far, or so, and I...I just have no idea why.  I'm curious, though.

A long, long time ago, there was a forumgoer named... oh what was it? inaluct, I believe. He started by making a trifecta of penguins: one for penguinofhonor, one for Org, and one for himself (it was a long time ago, I have no idea if I'm right.) Anyhow, the trend sort of snowballed out of control. There were many more penguins before this.

So, basically, all the old guys have penguin avatars, kinda like that movie Pocahontas Avatar, except they're penguins instead of giant smurfs (as opposed to the TV show, Avatar: The Last Airbender, which is awesome and totally what I thought the movie was about until I saw the poster for the movie The Last Airbender, which isn't awesome).

Show your penguin pride. Adopt a penguin avatar.

So which games are reserved by now? I know that XXVII and XXXIII have been claimed by Dariush and me respectively, and I think Max already asked for XXVIII.

Should put that in the OP to methinks.

Did I?
I have plans for a different game coming up, so not sure if I am up for modding two at once. I mean I do enjoy it, so will gladdy take the next one if needed, but if anybody else want's it, it is open.

My avatar is the manliest dorfiest. Every other one (well, except for ones from Touhou, but they are simply epic, not manly (and definitely not dorfy)) is heretical and must be scourged from the earth by steel and fire.

On a less offtopic note, how are things progressing at the current BM? Maybe I should host the next one while you're thinking what to do with replacement on LYLO?

Beginner's Mafias can wait for each other to finish.

Challenge accepted.

And they can wait for each other, but I think that you could already start sign-ups since this one is so close to finishing anyway.

Unless anybody extends, it will be over in a few hours, regardless if there's a replace or not.

Max stated that time would be suspended until a replace was found, because of the nature of the situation.  Unless he's changed his mind, it's not ending at all until Flandre returns or a replacement is found.
