Honestly, I think the only way you could please most players/characters was if the Zuma had a civil war and the realms got to join in at their leisure. It would probably require two GM's and still would probably require more of the GMs. I had heard two Zuma GMs were tried before (and that it was too hard to coordinate), so actually this sounds like a good path to me. Two GMs who could battle it out, autonomously control their own faction, and generate RP more efficiently.
So long as the Zuma interfere, there will be those that will be avidly against them and some who will laugh to themselves. It's not a horrible thing, but it makes winners and losers...and losers get sore.
Or if the Zuma stop playing intriguemaster, are public and clear about their actions, and kill EVERYTHING in sight. Then everybody will be on the same page real fast.
