The Speedy coup was an attempted coup on CivMC led by SpeedyJustice and his accomplices, meat312, SapienFrfx, and Skruntoo, to overthrow the leadership of Gensokyo.


SpeedyJustice, around the commencement of the coup attempt, had made a Reddit post explaining his reasons for attempting the coup.[1] The Reddit post's reception was largely poor. SpeedyJustice had given Gensokyo an ultimatum- for all of Gensokyo's land and infrastructure to be handed to Speedy. SpeedyJustice's attempt to swiftly seize Gensokyo would end up failing following resistance from the local population (at Gensokyo's cost of 2 pearled, both freed quickly after), and SpeedyJustice and his accompanying forces withdrew from Gensokyo quickly afterwards in fear of incoming reinforcements. Gensokyo's G.O.D. allies (Gang Shi and New Jersey) and several neighbors (Kallos, Arsenio Pact, and Estalia) would arrive shortly afterwards to provide support and potential protection, there discovering and disabling two small attack bunkers.

Aftermath

Following the incident, Nara was initially blamed for the attack (SpeedyJustice was a resident of Nara),[2] but it would be made known that Nara had not sanctioned the attempted coup.[3]

During the attackers' retreat, SpeedyJustice fled to a lake in the Southern claim of Gensokyo in hopes of safely logging out, but had unknowingly done so on a snitch line. There he would be subsequently logboxxed, though later escaping. Skruntoo was soon after pearled by K0mmi, a leader of Kallos, while SapienFrfx would turn herself in to the Arsenio Pact to serve a sentence for her involvement. meat312, however, would go on to argue Gensokyo's demanded reparations and sentence for a long period of time.[4] Gensokyo's demands caused some controvesy within the community and ultimately resulted in the formation of a counter alliance, the D.O.D., signed by Dalgon, Cortesia Del Mar, Arsenio Pact, Nara, Ila'kyavul, Venne, Kallos, and Leibniz Confederation.[5] A month or so later following a these disputes with Gensokyo's leader, Topaz4293, meat312 eventually turned himself in to the Arsenio Pact to serve a sentence him and outside parties deemed as more appropriate.[6] Notably, this was done so without Gensokyo's approval of meat312's sentence.
