Could grant it independence. Not sure if you can grant the title to the owner who is outside of your realm.

I’d keep it, personally. No harm, unless the owner wants it and declares war. Or his liege :o

What happened to “turn the other cheek” Jesus?

7639
Well to be fair, if you want to get into the morals of inaction, God killed Jesus, and thus committed suicide and isn't allowed into Heaven.

Jesus Christ guys let's not go from one maths problem to another one.

Let's stick with teh fist wan!

The esteemed Chairman has already broken down the salient points better than I could (notably: the doors aren't important; the host is).

The doors are important, the host just gives you information on them. Specifically, they know where the car is, and they're not going to show you where it is.

The odds remain the same throughout the problem; that's where I think people get tripped up.

Was Eve Adam's wife? I don't recall the book saying as much.

He says, as though he's read it.

What you mean by 'kinda interesting' is that you used your superior number of retinues and your human thinkbits to create favorable tactics and everybody died due to 100 person supply limits and then you ran out of monies because Black Plague and couldn't siege anything?

Don’t have me any retinues :o

I used my human think bits to find places where my troops could actually replenish while fighting Seljuk (who is now my marshal, a branded apostate, and has the craven trait) while the Sunnis just annoyed me ‘cause of the aforementioned 100 supply limit almost everywhere in my realm meaning I couldn’t really get any troops to completely finish them off for bloody ages. My monthly income went from ~70 to less than 10, so I couldn’t raise my demesne troops for fear of losing my admittedly huge coffers.

I think the Jihad lasted 14 years, and I didn’t see a stack larger than ~9k from them :-[ they also beat me in a fight they had no right beating me, which set things back a bit. Heck, Seljuk with his 28 martial got caned a few times by my smaller armies more than once.

Now I’m really just waiting to get imperial administration so I can stop my vassals fighting each other, and expand a bit more.

Well it apparently got taken over by someone in '08 who decided to put actual medicine in it, though I hadn't heard about the product until today so I have no idea if that is the case.

The proper name for '#' is 'octothorpe'.
That is by no means "proper"! It's just a joke made up by some people in Bell Labs, and has no more legitimacy than any other name, and considerably less than, say, "pound sign".

According to the internet, that modern oracle of ever-consistent truth, it is an alternate name for the pound sign.

Ergo, the thing is called the pound sign.

The British currency would like a word with you.

"£" is the pound sign.

"#" is a hash or number sign.

"lb" is pounds - as in weight - from the latin "libra pondo", apparently.

Crazy Americans.

I'm sure you could get away with a "hey you!" every so often.

Moreover, none of HeadOn's ingredients have any scientifically supported effectiveness in treatment of a headache. One of the ingredients, white bryony (bryonia alba), is a highly toxic berry that is lethal if 40 such berries are ingested;[20] however, dilution leaves virtually none of this ingredient in the product, which is why its makers can claim the treatment has no side effects[16] (or any effects at all[17]). Another ingredient, goldenseal (hydrastis canadensis), has no known effectiveness in the treatment of any condition.[21][22]

lol and... lol

Revoking titles has weird rules.

As scriver said, they need to be direct vassals to do it. The title also can't be the subject of an ongoing war, nor can you revoke titles from vassals you have a truce with, unless (I think) you have a claim on it.

Edit:

So, those Seljuks, and that Jihad...

Kinda got interesting when the Black Death decided to join the party.
