While I don't use speed 1, I see how it could be useful. Seems silly to remove it completely rather than add a 6th (or 0th) speed.

What about the "crash at certain date bug"?

Unless there's a crash at certain date bug that I'm unaware of, this should now be fixed.

Does this fix the tournament bugs?

there's been a number of fixes to tournament events, and the whole sequence should now be a lot more robust. Haven't had any trouble with them for a while.

By the way, I can't see any difference between speed 4 and 5 now. They seems the same.

Speed 5 is simply unlimited. If you don't see any difference between 4 and 5, it simply means your computer can't handle any higher.

Why make this change to the game speed? Were people asking for it? It just annoys some people.

I at least have long wanted a middle-ground between 4 and 5, which the change does provide. The problem ofc is that they eliminated speed 1 completely.

Erm, I appear to have an issue, I didn't get the CK2 update dl'd automatically, is there a way I can find the download and install it myself?

Try restarting Steam; it'll usually make it recheck for updates.

Do you know, I've never done either of these things. How do you manually appoint/replace mayors? I know you can nominate bishops if you have free investiture but it's just something I've never remembered to do. Is there a real benefit to doing so?

Church taxes. As long as a priest likes you more than the pope, you'll get their church tax.
