Am I Seeing Double?[edit]
Apparently, there seem to be two mayors in my fortress. The only one on the nobles screen is the newest, who has started making mandates out of the blue while the other is still a mayor and in their estate. The two aren't married. Is this some sort of new feature or just another bothersome glitch?

Appointed yet replacable[edit]

Why elected?[edit]
Not that I'm complaining, but after a Great consolor who knows nobody came she became mayor immidiately -- anybody understand the election process?
- The process isn't so much an election as the game chooses the mayor based on the sum of the skill levels a dwarf has that is related to mayoral tasks. All things being equal, a dwarf with more friends would get chosen over one with less. So it's sort of a meritocracy, at least that's how I understand it.169.231.8.134
No mayor with 56 dwarves[edit]
I haven't go a mayor yet although 56 dwarves live in my fortress. I play this fortress a bit unusual by having only 3 rooms and living from plant gathering. Bug or unknown condition? --Blur 12:55, 20 December 2010 (UTC)
- How long have you had 56 dwarves? Elections for Mayor only happen about halfway through the first month of Summer, and they may not necessarily happen every year. --Quietust 13:59, 20 December 2010 (UTC)
This could be the reason, as I abandoned after creating a high-quality armor for my adventurer. --Blur 13:50, 25 December 2010 (UTC)
I've had over 60 dwarves for a year now, election time yet?
Election Date[edit]
In one of my 0.31.12 fortresses, I just observed the Mayor election (specifically, "Ber Olinthum, Peasant's mandate has ended." from the previous mayor being voted out of office) taking place on the 17th of Hematite. --Quietust 03:04, 29 September 2011 (UTC)
