"The former Mayor will revert to the job they had previously" My (first) mayor was a legendary carpenter. However, she still cut trees and made wooden things.. also i noticed that she wasn't listed with the other admins (leg. clerk), and her purple icon still flashed purple, although she was a leg. carpenter.

:I can guess at what this means. Say you have a mayor who is a legendary carpenter, like your example. You can still have the mayor do all of those jobs, like carpentry, etc- just that the mayor/carpenter will have that purple color all nobles have. Now lets say some other dwarf is elected mayore. The former mayor will have that yellow color. --[[User:Bouchart|Bouchart]] 16:56, 15 April 2008 (EDT) | :I can guess at what this means.

:She might get some unhappy thoughts, but you can counterbalance that by ensuring she's got things giving her happy thoughts as well.

Violating production mandates[edit]
My mayor just had the thought "..angered that nobody could be punished for a recent failure". Is this what happens when I violate an export mandate? Currently export of bolts is prohibited; I was smug and exported some arrows that obviously none of my dwarves made. He still could have punished my trader though? --Koltom 16:58, 21 March 2008 (EDT)
- You get this message when one of your nobles gave a mandate, it failed but you didn't have dwarves with the right job enabled. For example, if your broker ask for a gem and you have no gemcutters around until the mandate end, he'll have nobody to properly punish. That's when he'll get such a thought. --Eagle of Fire 00:33, 23 March 2008 (EDT)
Profession vs politics[edit]

unhappy mayors[edit]
one of my soldiers (who just had a baby and has also just killed some kobold thieves) just became mayor. I want her to stay in the army (although if I get invaded I might put her sentry in charge of my magma smelter or something to keep the baby safe). Is there going to be any long term bad effect to not give her the goodies that a mayor wants?GarrieIrons 02:26, 28 June 2008 (EDT)
