Check with your local seneschal or kingdom law. There should be forms to see. There were in the Seneschal's Handbook Countess Valmai and I wrote.Ten thousand years ago. You are entitled to an answer by some one. I hate to talk about "in my day" but even then with big moves such as to Barony and Principality the powers that be would play fast and lose with the ambiguity of some things. And I refer to the corporate level. We were very conservative in group advancements and waited to see a level of stability. People would rally and be excited to participate in a big way for a goal such as barony, but would often just fall apart after the fact. We made them wait longer than made them happy but we avoided "flash in the pan".
You don't actually see or hear from me often because I liked the rules to apply to everyone the same way. We did not allow groups to splinter. We prevented events from overlapping so both events suffered. I liked the Kingdom mentality rather than the regional mentality. Now my ears bleed.
Check the current facts. Take a deep breath and write a letter. You might make no difference at all but at least you would have had your say. Use the chain of command though or they will write you off as a looney. In other words don't go right to the BOD and say "the people running my kingdom stink". That would be stepping on my territory. The War , if you go, might be a good place for discussion with like minded people and I believe there is a newspaper you could put and ad in to do just that.
Best of luck with all of this.
