Alright, so - huge surprise - all of you are making a terrible mistake right now.
Skill totals for HAGGLING:
Reinhard: 0
Citizen: 16
Givi = 18
Lithium Flower = 18
Spigot = 20
Skill totals for DISCUSS REQUEST:
Reinhard: 0
Citizen: 16
Givi = 18
Lithium Flower = 18
Spigot = 20
Skill totals for COVER FOR GAFFE:
Reinhard: 0
Citizen: 16
Lithium Flower: 20
Spigot = 20
Givi = 26
Methodology used here is the same as
in here.
But Reinhard is currently leading with FOUR votes. Givi has ONE. I will admit that the only argument for voting for me is that Givi is a great miner and we seem to need those at this point, so his full-time mining ability is probably more useful to us than 6 extra points in Cover for Gaffe. Still, if I am to be rejected out of prejudice, pick Givi or at least Citizen for the job. Picking Reinhardt is an intentional sabotage of the fortress. Spigot's skills are great but his track record isn't - its up to you to determine whether or not 2 extra points in haggling and discuss request are worth getting sieged over.

Agenda №1: Option 2 (open the gates). We've got a buffer now, and some rudimentary equipment. We are lacking vital resources (BOOZE) and we should facilitate safe trade as soon as possible - it looks like the liason got into some trouble because we closed ourselves in.
Agenda №2: Option 1 (1 year mining/military duty) - Spigot made a high risk decision while yielding little to no reward. This was incompetency, not treason. He shouldn't be a broker, but there is no need to punish him further than that. He can, after all, bru.
Agenda №3: Option 1 (Annexation? Yes please) - With the imminent elven invasion we need allies. We need a supply chain and reinforcements. We live together or we die alone.
Elections:
Militia Commander -
Kalin
Manager -
Citizen. No organizer but I don't think anyone else has the skill so at least we will benefit from his good social abilities.
Broker -
Givi for reasons above Lithium Flower as per reasoning in
this post
Bookkeeper - I don't know.
Azira? Sure.
Chief Medical Dwarf -
