Let's assume you put such a rule. How would you know?

Just check the whole thread... most of the things in here could be fake. How do you know they are actually true?

A picture proves nothing. I could finish a WC by 1400, change end date to 1100, and say i am TEH GAWD OF WC.

Pretty much all the records in this "hall of fame" could be generated by editing saved files, one way or another... or with heavy exploits, like in the case of the character stats (i once had a character with more than 100 stewardship because of the amount of cash i kept collecting/wasting and using the in-game ambition for "collect money").

The only record in CK that i actually know to be true is that I, BurningEGO, was the first one to ever do a world conquest in CK2 (link). With legitimate means, and without exploits. With exploits, anyone can do it (it also depends on patch).

I was usually in a state of constant war, and it took me to 1400 to complete this WC (could had done a lot sooner, probably around 1300 but i was slacking). True, i only pushed a few claims, never did holy wars (could not do holy wars as pagan back in then), and it took me till 1200 to be able to do Invasions (which were not as powerful as they are now). I never wanted to do a WC, but ended up doing it, and was the first one to ever post a screenshot about a full WC in the forums.

So, before you kids brag about your e-peen and your exploits/cheats on CK2, know that i, BurningEGO, had done it before you ever dreamed about it, and in much better style (1.04 Pagan, without cheesy exploits, 100% legitimate).

Blank records for Empire creations and religious reformations are UUUUPPPPPP!
Get on it guys, claim 'em xD

(kingdoms are still missing from the list but records can already be claimed)

Italy is missing, and Arabia is formed in 867. :)

My first go with my trusty King of Egypt: Abyssinia by Mar.27.900. Nothing fancy, as you're basically waiting for your old heir to die.

And as an earlier poster already mentioned, Arabia is already formed in TOG.

Pretty sure anyone who posts in this thread would do so because it's a fun challenge to take on.

I doubt that internet trolls are flocking here to post fake save games, and if they are - who cares. Still fun to challenge oneself. Now cut out the self righteous banter...

who cares.

Apparently a lot of people since this thread got 16 pages already. ;)

As if it wasnt common to see people in the internet bragging about acomplishments they "managed" to achieve "legitimately" (with cheating, although they insist on saying "legitimately").

Show me a screenshot that looks fake and I'll remove it. Until then I just assume that everyone is a fair sport and doesn't outright cheat (by using the console, editing savegames or changing the screenshot).

By the way, this sentence is hilarious:
"So, before you kids brag about your e-peen and your exploits/cheats on CK2, know that i, BurningEGO, had done it before you ever dreamed about it, and in much better style (1.04 Pagan, without cheesy exploits, 100% legitimate)."

If you sink 200 hours into a single playthrough, then it would be absurd to cheat. Peeps here post fastest kingdom or empire, and yea, they could maybe have cheated. Who knows. Probably they didnt, because we know the players. But the records that require a long playthrough, like my 11 empires game, why would I cheat there? It'd be silly to invest so much time and then cheat o_O

PS: currently working on a norse WC. I wanna try and see if it's possible to max out tech, although I am not trying to break speed records. Ideally I end up with 10+ empires and Norse faith worldwide, but then again I doubt I'll have the stamina for that. We'll see.
