United Earth Directorate leadership crisis

The UED Leadership Crisis was a series of events that took place from December 20 2009, resulting in a change of government for the alliance.

Events
The issue erupted when TimLee created a thread, announcing that the Charter of UED had been invalidated by King Death II and Roofus, as the original charter proclaimed Roofus as Supreme The People’s Premier and King Death II as The People’s Representative forever, but in the most recent announcement it was revealed that they had switched positions around. TimLee thus announced that he King Death II subsequently edited their charter, removing those points. At this point, it was widely presumed to be a joke, with Locke announcing the cancellation of all UED's treaties, signing himself off as "Minister of Foreign Affairs", and including Tromp as "Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs".

At this point, UED Senior Member Wulff posted an announcement stating that "The United Earth Directorate has just concluded a vote and we have decided to impeach King Death II as the Premier of UED" and that "[we] accept the new leadership of TimLee of the Republic of BaN", before signing the announcement with "The United Earth Directorate Membership". While many took it too as a joke, some recognized it as a genuine move, whilst others pointed out that they had no impeachment process in the first place.

It was at this point revealed that there was no joke, as UED member KOwen06 announced the successful impeachment and expulsion of King Death II from the alliance. A new charter was being drawn up, and a new IRC channel had been registered with a a new forum soon to follow. Finally, UED announced a new government, which consisted of KOwen06 as the new "People's Premier". With the number of announcements (real and fake) growing, King Death II attempted to clarify the issue, announcing that he was still in charge while every other announcement was false. He was immediately rebuked by Wulff for this. Nine minutes later, King Death II posted his "Last Announcement" in which he informed the Cyberverse that he resigned from UED, cancelled all treaties signed and disbanded the alliance, citing the reason that he "[didn't] have enough patience for this drama". KOwen06 followed it up with a small note in the same announcement stating that "UED was not disbanding, KDII had no right to do is" with a general warning not to poach UED members.
