I don't want to totally sidetrack the thread, but here are two of the videos that I looked at.  The first one I only lasted 1:11 before I clicked it off violently, the second I think I lasted even less. 

First video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kw_yZvM9pwM

Second video:  Ah I can't even find it.  I'm so traumatized by the whole experience, some dude doing a fake english accent and just the most annoying voice and talking I've ever heard.

I'm totally lost here. I don't particularly care if the thread gets hijacked, but what in the world do some kids making a boring Minecraft video have to do with CK2? I'm only asking out of sheer curiosity. Other than that, do as thou wilt.

Toonces is passing around the YouTube equivalent of a carton of milk that's gone off, exclaiming "Man, this stinks!  Holy crap does this stink!  Here.  smell it."

Idiot that I am, I watched the video (much like I always take a whiff of the milk.)

Well after spending a few hours going through the tutorials and dabbling with Scotland, I can confidently state that I haven't a clue as to what's going on. 

Now I supposed I'll have to engage in stupid reading to learn how to play this beast.

either watch the 'lets play ck2' vids on youtube - there is one for Leon - i think it has 25 sections and its awesome, or go to the AAR section of paradox/CK2 and read one of the 'this is why im doing this' AARs - i recommend the 'Crovan - saltborn AAR' or the 'Parmasan Cheese' one, or wait for mine  ;)

LOL, actually I was sober.  Sorry Ubercat.  I'll drop the Minecraft stuff.

CK2 is a neat game, definitely worth $20, and there are some great youtube videos to help you learn how to play it.

Whatever you do, though, don't go looking at Minecraft youtube videos if you value your sanity.

There's like a 16 part noob guide on Youtube.  I watched the first two videos and it was very helpful.  Linky:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uTsCxzmZIWc&list=FLj-vyGatZSzzekcATdxJShA&index=7&feature=plpp_video


I started watching these and they are extremely helpful.  The guys seems to know what he is talking about.
