Overthrow

Don't like your leader? Vote them out.

/nation overthrow

Running this starts a vote to remove your nation's current leader - your own vote counts immediately as the first one. Any other member can run the same command to add their vote to the one already underway; it doesn't start a second vote, it just joins the existing one.

Reaching a majority

A vote succeeds once it reaches 50% of the nation's total member count, rounded up. A 20-member nation needs 10 votes. A 7-member nation needs 4. The moment that threshold is hit, the vote resolves immediately - whoever started it becomes the new leader on the spot, with full control: disband, roles, everything. The old leader drops to the nation's default role, same as a normal /nation transfer.

You can't vote to overthrow yourself, so the current leader has no way to take part in (or block) a vote against them.

If it doesn't reach a majority

A vote has 48 hours to reach its threshold. If it doesn't, it fails automatically and the nation keeps its current leader. Nothing is lost by trying - a failed vote doesn't block a new one from starting later.

Staying in the loop

If you log in while your nation has an active vote, you'll get a reminder:

  • Haven't voted yet? You'll be told the vote is underway and how to add your own (/nation overthrow).
  • Already voted? No repeat reminder - you already know.
  • You're the leader being challenged? You'll be told your leadership is being contested, with the current vote count.

A vote in progress survives a server restart - nothing about it resets just because the server goes down and comes back up.
