We have updated our Community Code of Conduct. Please read through the new rules for the forum that are an integral part of Paradox Interactive’s User Agreement.
Whilst doing this, you can see what progress you've made towards the challenges by pressing the Esc key.
Okay so my first attempt went like this. I got 10 points, predominantly for killing William of Normandy (he gives 2 points I believe) and MANY of his offspring. Got the Gold level in this challenge (each time you succeed in gaining a tier from Bronze to Gold the game tells you which is nice). My character died at 71 but probably could have had more sons and taken more lands had I focussed there. Now when I go back to the menu, the wizard beard is showing as unlocked and I have 10 points to go until the next cosmetic. There are two options here, Continue and Restart.
What I'd like to know is, if I were to restart, would the points I got in the previous run be wiped to 0 and this new score is taken? Is it cumulative, we can have several cracks at each challenge? Or if I get fewer points the next attempt, the original score I got (10) stands?
I don't want to restart as frankly I'm happy with 10 and don't want to lose this progress if progress is wiped. I got my wizard beard and I'm keeping it.
X. Also bi-weekly can mean either mean every two weeks OR twice a week. Is it every fortnight?

Points carry over - this was confirmed in another thread by a dev. So the 10 points you have earned stay earned and in a restart game you can't add points for a gold level you've already finished. However, the objective tallies from the previous game don't carry over... If you had enough sons to get Bronze and earn 2 points in a previous game, you don't get silver level just for having a couple of sons in a later one - the sons in the current game need to reach the target required to get a particular level. Essentially, you should be looking to get gold in at least one category each playthrough to avoid repeats.
Bi-weekly is every two weeks. Twice a week is semi-weekly. Not that I totally trust Paradox to not mix them up, twice a week seems a bit rapid.
In any case, we also have confirmation that the challenges don't expire when a new one is added, so there's plenty of time to complete them.
Right click on the game in your Steam library, select properties, click on the Local Files tab, and then select on the Verify Integrity of Game Files option, it should fix your problem.
Holy shit, this is hard has hell, but i conquered HAHAHAHA. It's like Vini, Vidi, Vice
Will we be able to access and earn points from old challenges, or if we miss them, is that it? Which then begs the question, how many points will be available (and how many can I miss if I still want to earn the 110(?) points needed to get every reward 
)
)
Swearing fealty to France or whoever wins in England makes getting the provinces much easier, as you can fight vassals and not the entire realmHoly shit, this is hard has hell, but i conquered HAHAHAHA. It's like Vini, Vidi, Vice
If there's 18 points for each challenge, and they update every 2 weeks, then for 110 points you need to play 14 weeks worth of challenges. I doubt CK3 will release before January 27Will we be able to access and earn points from old challenges, or if we miss them, is that it?

It states this within this thread. New scenarios 'release' every two weeks, but when released are 'always' there to play whenever you wish. You are not time limited on when to play these and don't loose out if you don't touch the game for a couple of months....the ones released will be waiting for you.
Yes. And then you make a faction demand to get the whole kingdom that you swore fealty to.
I apologize if this has been already asked, but what sort of cosmetic add-ons are we talking here and given how Monarch's Journey isn't available for Linux, will there be some other way to get those once CK3 is out? For example, if the reward is a portrait pack, will we be able to eventually buy that portrait pack?
You can see the cosmetic items and how many points you need for each in ck2. It's stuff like facial hair that you can use on your character
It should be possible to get the Monarch's Journey on Linux by forcing Steam Play with Proton on Crusader Kings to emulate the Windows version.
Paradox is only interested in money at this point. Can't believe that this is the sort of things they invest ressources into now.
Wait, Linux users can't get these now?!
We've been tricked, we've been backstabbed, and we've been, quite possibly, bamboozled.

Wait a second... Did they even confirm that CKIII will run on Linux? I have a bad feeling about this.

Epic Game Store does not support Linux.
You can connect the dots from here.
The below post from Divine in another thread explains why the Monarch's Journey isn't on Linux.
As for CKIII, its Steam page has tabs for Windows, MacOS and Linux in the system requirements section. Imperator is also on Linux and I think it was mentioned by Henrik at pdxcon that Imperator was built using a lot of the stuff they were already putting together for CKIII, so everything is probably okay!

Which mod allow you to have that great helm in your character portrait?Holy shit, this is hard has hell, but i conquered HAHAHAHA. It's like Vini, Vidi, Vice
