The Vaitrel Iede Protests were a series of protests all trying to accomplish the similar goal of improving the health and safety for all players and stadiums. The Shodiax Piruen Iede was well-funded and equipped with modern instruments on stand-by for any medical emergencies. Unlike the Piruen, the Shodiax Vaitrel Iede and all leagues lower than it were not given these things from the league, as they were funded by the clubs themselves. Although this was barely an issue for the more involved Vaitrel teams, some of the less popular and almost all of the leagues below did not have these because of low income going to these departments. These protests lasted for five years starting in 2014, and came in three phases. The protests were made by the Vaitrel and below leagues suspending themselves during this period of time.

Leading Causes

In the early 2000s, especially in the year 2003, the main league of the Shodiax was given multiple new regulations in accordance to stand-by ambulances, all of which were funded by the Shodiax League itself. Unfortunately for the Vaitrel and other levels/leagues, the Shodiax League did not have enough money to pay all the other clubs for the same changes. At the time, these leagues were fine with implementing these measures to their liking, but felt uneasy when going to away games that did not host these improved features.

Time goes on, mentionably the early '10s, and the Shodiax League had completely forgotten about the funding of these for the more unthought-of leagues. There was still money in the jar, but it was no longer being added to and was also slightly being took out of for minor emergencies. By this time, most of the Vaitrel Iede clubs had all of these implemented, but there were very few clubs in the Reɣialns and below to. On January 5th, 2014, there was a near-death situation for Bilnsti Verdil on 1.TX Huijen, a team in the Reɣialns Nimuoir, that ended up in his retiring from football and many activities involving an inconsistent heart beat. Although his life was saved when an ambulance was called, he could have been in a much better condition now if there was one on stand-by. That same day, Kermotta Halcxier on Neurl Vovilveante FC, also a team in the Reɣialns Nimuoir, coincidentally also was given a severe injury on a field not meeting regulations set for the Piruen.

Although these leagues were not shut down right then and there, it was something to think about coming into the offseason.

1st Movement

On April 20th, 2014, the Vaitrel Iede's organizers, also as mad as the Nimuoir were for these neglections from the Piruen, met with the Nimuoir to discuss pulling out next season. After it was over, they turned it to the Vaitrel clubs and owners to see if they wished to pull out or not. They did the Vaitrel rather than the Nimuoir because of the sheer power the Vaitrel has, and that it would also force the Reɣialns Rumijatk to comply with the protest.

Objective

The main goal of the stand was to give all clubs in the Vaitrel and below the same health precautions funded fully by the Shodiax League System. They would raise the money via the Piruen, and if all profit did not go to these precautions, it was possible that the Vaitrel and other levels might find a new home.

Despite the overwhelming pro to this protest, there were still factors that played into some groups saying no. One would be the lack of pay to the coaches, as the agreement would only provide payment for the players rather than the coaches, as they were forced to get their money elsewhere or by an emergency backup fund by the team. Another would be that if this stand took too long, clubs who were likely to promote into the Piruen would no longer have the same lineup, and would not have the same chances to make it back in anymore when things went back to normal. Of course, this worked the other way around, so this was only a problem for the better teams.

Piruen's Response

The Piruen Iede was surprised to say the least, but Ben Shodiax went along with what the Vaitrel wanted and got to work promoting the Piruen as soon as possible. Although he was unhappy that his beloved league was being given a slap in the face, he took it well and did everything in his ability to improve the regulations for the Vaitrel Iede.

Resolution

The Vaitrel Iede clubs would not participate in any competitions that year, including the HFZ Kurn which had its own problems. The Shodiax League had overspended for the year before the protests took place, which inevitably forced the year's income to be at a loss. The money raised would barely be enough to keep the clubs below the top flight afloat, not even mentioning to improve them. No renovations were funded by the Shodiax League at all that year to any level. The amateur leagues (levels 5 and below) would still have their season, but no promotion or relegation was allowed.

2nd Movement

The organizers of this protest were understanding and aware that the 1st movement was sprung of the Shodiax League out of the blue. So, instead of doing the expected and moving on from the league entirely, they gave it another shot. Instead of waiting half-way through the offseason to make an unexpected decision, they made the announcement that they would turn it over to the Vaitrel clubs the day after the Piruen season finished. This would not allow for the League to make any large financial decisions while they were deciding if they would like to come back or not. The new proposition for protest would go for two years, as the protest organizers believed this would make it easier on the Piruen.

Instead of the three-option system of choosing "for", "neutral" or "against"; there were now four options. A voter could now choose "against 2-year contract"; which was for a one-year protest but against a two-year one, basically making this a double-poll.
