Ok, I loaded the save.

Which dorfs are available for the picking?

I kinda like the Ast family

I just as soon see her loose her position. Now.

Hmm.  Just checked, and it's Mr Feb who is the Chief Medical Dwarf.  I'm supposing that's who you were talking about?

OK, who would you see being his replacement as Chief Medical Dwarf?  She's not got any skill in Diagnosing anyway, so the city wouldn't lose a valuable doctor.
Once everyone puts their own candidates forward, I'll stick a poll up and we can vote to see who gets put into the office.  Any Dwarf can be a candidate for public service, including ones that normally are part of a District's founding family.  Those big bedrooms and private offices are something to aspire to.  (Well, there's also the "noble requirements" that everyone has to fulfill but that the noble's family District gets to keep as well...)
Edit: 26Jan16
Whomever controls the Mayor's position gets to appoint some of the other noble positions, like CMO, broker and book-keeper. Once the position is available, there will be an annual election for Mayor every in-game year.

Every dwarf except the "Light" dwarves and anyone in a noble position (but just like Mrs Feb, those nobles can be voted out of office during the upcoming year.)  Looks like the position of Chief Medical Dwarf might become available very soon.

Actually, we have 5 people who want a District right now, and a current population of 33.  7 x 5 = 35, so maybe we make it that the nobles can be chosen as founders, but have the run of the city because they're public servants to the city?  That seems more logical.  We're still 2-short, in a first-posted, first claimed manner, one District will have to wait to be started until the next wave of migrants. (edit: nobles can be Founders, but can move around the city at will)

Two things, One is that population including children, if not then someone could opt to take the children as a future gap filler.

Two, if not, can someone opt to take 5 dwarfs instead of 7?

Isn't it dwarf claiming day today?

[chaotic skies]

Yeah, it is. Basically: *Bump*

[Shofet]

Well I claim the Febs. I will fill my roster after everyone one else is done. I also would consider taking fewer than 7 if I can have another married couple.

[Urdothor]

Maybe weather knocked out internet/power, or Timeless Bob got busy with life? Should we go ahead and claim while he's gone?

[chaotic skies]

Yes, and while we're at it we should probably release HFS and put all the alcohol outside for the goblins, just because he left us alone.

I was thinking we put the goblins inside with the alcohol.

[chaotic skies]

Then we can't come back in, unless we kill the goblins. I like this idea!

[Shofet]

Lol. Just pick some dwarves guys. I think some folks might be holding off till there are more dwarves. So the sooner we start, the sooner we fill this city up. And commence the gobbo killin.

[Timeless Bob]

I'm sorry guys, sudden house-guest alert took my weekend for a spin.  Looks like "The Febs" and "The Asts" have been taken, but nobody else?  Just list the top ten dwarfs you would like as Founders in the order of preference (most preferred first, ect...).  Whoever posts a dwarf first in their list, gets them.  Ties will go to whomever posted their list first in the forum.  The last five dwarves will have to be "Free range" until next week.  (I suppose the last person to post a list will get their top five unclaimed dwarves, with an option for the next two to come in a migrant wave, unless they want to wait a week to claim a District and take their choice of all the other migrants.)

Oh, I understand - yeah, I suppose children would be able to be Founders as well.  They're part of that 33 citizens.

As to the nobles, I'll be removing the ban on making them District Founders, I realize that was bad logic.
