I have a penchant for getting tons of mandates from my mayor and duchess, and then ignoring them out of sheer laziness and indifference. This has led to the following situation, which I personally found a little hilarious.



Apparently, my duchess became a criminal when she didn't make some goods for the mayor, and the mayor became a criminal when he didn't make what the duchess wanted. What's even better is that their thought "glad to have punishment delayed recently" helps to cancel out "upset by the delayed punishment of a criminal" and "upset by having a mandate ignored recently". They both seem to be pretty happy/ecstatic even though I don't try to complete any of their mandates at all

Classic.

You should still execute both of them as an example to the others, however.

I always make a large room full of chains for animal breeding and justice.  "Sorry, Ms. Duchess, but you'll be spending time with the mating cattle, cougars, and that one wild cave dragon for a month."

"Wild" cave dragon? You moron!
You could have tamed it, thus saving the cattle and cougars!

...Or, and the duchess.

nah, they're chained far enough apart.  Besides, I like to breed things, and then tame the children.  Then I'm not restricted in my options, got wild or tame for whatever purpose!

I once had a dwarf get elected mayor right at the beginning of his 50 day jail sentence (I think it was for vandalism). So he spent his first two months of his term chained up in the main hallway. Eventually he finished his sentence and continued to be mayor for another year.

I was more worried that your jail is in the main hallway than I was worried about your dwarves voting in a freshly convicted criminal

Appoint one of them as the Sheriff/Captain of the Guard & see who wins

Sentence them to a lifetime of hard labor in the gulag.

Give them both cotton candy hammers.

Imagine 2 drunken disgruntled dwarves dueling to the death with hammers that are only slightly heavier than Styrofoam.

An extremely similar situation is happening in my town between the mayor and chief of police. Bug-features for the win!
