Remake is no longer playing mafia afaik, so he can be taken off the list (or at least, taken off for now. If he decides he wants to host again, we can move him to the front of the queue).
That leaves an extra spot. I'm going to pm Jelfoss, Robbie, Kyle, and JR48 to see if any of their setups are ready. After 3 or 4 days, if none of them are, then Musical can keep the sign-ups for Job Mafia open.

Although, MM, I know you didn't completely just copy/paste the entire setup for The Chamber Mafia, but it sure as hell looks like it. Some of the mechanics don't even really make sense for the flavor (like the president having veto powers). I would be fine with you making a "split town" type game, because even though that was done with The Chamber, there's a decent amount of design space with a game like that (although, to be honest, I wasn't a huge fan of it). But you copied the President, and Vice President roles verbatim (though the special ability could be different), and you even have a single "special role". Especially for something as flavorful as The Chamber, it's really obvious when you take all the mechanics and just change around the flavor.
I changed some of the mechanics to make it less biased to one side like I changed the secret role so it wasn't as dumb as if he dies the town doesn't get alignments revealed anymore. I also changed a couple other mechanics that made it too much favoring the mafia. As for there only being "one" secret role. I would love to put more roles into it but it's just a pure coincidence as you can't really have another role another than what I already have. I could add possibly another two roles. Now that I think about it.
The Manager and Contractor special abilities are different.
It is actually although I honestly agree that it "seems" like it is almost exactly the same I did change a lot of things to make it more friendly for this site.
