Getting a Mayor
« on: July 08, 2010, 11:43:21 am »

So I read on the DF wiki that once your civ reaches a population of 50 dwarves, your expedition leader should become a mayor. I have 76 dwarves, but under nobles it still lists my leader as expedition leader. Can anyone point out something I still need to do? Thanks!

Are you on the latest version?  There was a bug for a while where the mayor would fail to be elected, but it was fixed on a recent bugfix release.

I think it is just a time thing.  I usually have over 50 for a little while before a mayor is elected, it's just random I think.  Or maybe related to migrant waves or the liason's arrival. I waited a year once, but it happened.
