Summary0006172: Keep a liaison waiting long enough and you can have 2 barons
DescriptionOne baron is enough. Fortunately you have to explicitly ask for two.
Steps To ReproduceIf the mayor is extremely busy, he can go a whole year without having a chance to meet with the liaison. By that time, another liaison will have shown up. If this happens when your fortress has just become eligible to become a barony, the first liaison (when he finally gets a moment with the mayor) will ask for recommendations for baron. If the second liaison manages to get a meeting before the first leaves the screen, he will also ask for a recommendation. Recommend two different dwarves and you will soon have two different barons.
Additional InformationI haven't tried to reproduce this, but I'm pretty sure I've had it happen before. My current fortress has a baroness and a baron (not married to each other, and they require separate throne/dining/bedrooms).

I'm also not sure exactly what the conditions are - it might only require two liaisons, even if the first leaves the map before the second starts their meeting. In my current fort it was as described above: The first liaison was still on his way out when the second one asked for recommendations.

This is actually a duplicate of 0005712, where the mayor is held up enough to require multiple meetings that induce this behavior. That report also includes a save.
