Confirmed in 0.31.10.

Also confirmed in 0.31.12. It happened at the usual date (around the middle of Hematite), and it caused the Elven diplomat to leave unhappy.

Same here, the only warning I get is if the old mayor has an active mandate, then it will announce that their mandate has ended. 31.12

I was trying to think of the current version and somehow went 34+11? No idea, lol.

Fixed though.

Yeah, as Quietust said, related to this is that sometimes a new mayor will be appointed while s/he is trying to conduct a meeting, causing the diplomat to leave unhappy. I just had this happen to me as well in ver 34.11.

I've received this announcement in 40.04 - has anyone seen one earlier in the 40.xx series of releases?

I haven't had this announcement in 40.03. Mayor changed twice and I only noticed after I checked the [n]oble screen some time later and the [REQUIRES]-tag was red.
Didn't happen yet in 40.04
Edit: My mayor just got reelected in 40.04. I got no popup, but a message in the log.

I received a mayor announcement all the way back in 40.02!

As far back as I can remember (from at least 0.31.something), the election message has appeared in the announcement log but never on the bottom row of the screen. So there both is and is not an announcement.

I had thought it might have been deliberately intended that way to make mandates more challenging, which it does.

It did appear for me on the bottom row of the screen upon reelection in 40.04.
I don't know if it does when a new mayor is elected.

>I had thought it might have been deliberately intended that way to make mandates more challenging, which it does.
I can't imagine that.

Given the fix in the change log for:
  (*) Fixed position appointment issue that caused some instability
without a specific bug report, I'm adding this to the change log as fixed. We'll have to review the related thoughts from 0001088.
