Civilized European dynasties don't last very long when my pagan rulers chain-sacrifice them to Bloodthirsty Gods.

Does the modifier under suspicion work like a slider? I laid low after doing secret Jewish stuff until it fell off and as soon as I prepared grounds I got it again instantly.
So; I don't play CK2 too much; but decided to play in Wales for a change.
My first heir joined the Benedictine Order of his own accord before I got to play as him; and eventually lived to the ripe old age of 61, with all 7 virtues; Pilgrim; Poet; Theologian and as a Mastermind Theologan trait.
His only son died only a few years after taking the throne, without his own heir, so now his half-sister is Queen. Thankfully I Matrilinealry married her.
But shortly after this; I got a big notification that the 7-Virtue guy was declared a Saint, and I gained a [2nd] Bloodline.
I've never seen a pop-up about Sainthood at all, so I was wondering; how hard is it to get a Saint? I kind of stumbled into it. His title also changed posthumously on Canonization to 'the Godbearing'.

rather easy early on as the piety requirements are low but the piety requirement scales so the 2nd is harder etc
I am a new player so sorry for the dumbness of my question : I am a duke and I declared war to my king for independence and I won like 6 sieges so 2 counties that were owned directly by him.
Then I offered him peace which he accepted and the result is that I am independent but I don't own the 2 counties ... how come ? I was occupying all the cities of the 2 counties.
Thank you !

You would of had to fight to press a claim either through your own claim or through a claimant or a de jure territory claim. An Independence war will only break you off from your former liege.
Edit: always double check what the war dec screen says before you click OK. That's good practice for any paradox title since they really like to restrict what is possible to happen in a war.
Combat help, can anyone tell me why I'm losing this battle so horribly? By all accounts, I feel like I should be winning. The only major things I can see that aren't on this screen are commander skills, which do favor the enemy. The leader in the center has heavy infantry and leading the center. The right one has plains combat and infantry leader, the left one has aggressive and light foot. My center commander is aggressive and the right is defensive. Tech favors me slightly. No bad traits on either side.
EDIT: Retrying the battle resulted in a very decisive victory for me, with 2/3 of the enemy army being wiped out.

Don't see why you think that.
Mil attribute is good enough for all to run the common tactics.
Pretty even numbers. The opposition has more archers and pikemen and apparently better commander skills.
What's happening on the right flank looks impressive. 455 for mellee sounds like a good dice roll, while you losing left and centre in skirmish.
(edit) Combat modifiers including traits are mentioned in the tooltip when hovering over the martial attribute.
The flank composition window could be good to compare troops on each flank.
The tooltip window of one of the flank battle phase arrows could have been interesting to see as well.
PS: Also the actual tactics, as several tactics have the same icons.

Is there a special requirement to get the seclusion events? I'm trying to get the Bon Apetit achievement. I had my kid shut the gates for 6 years and no events fired.
I believe you want to have a courtier who is Gluttonous to trigger the event.
I wasn't getting ANY events though - like the ones where food goes low, or courtiers try to escape etc... There was no epidemic nearby.
Wait what does that number do? I never really noticed it before.
There's this event where your court priest is found to be corrupt (this one is a direct vassal priest) and ends up with lots of money. You can imprison them for free but have no revocation reason. Why when you revoke their title do they end up in someone else's court preventing you from getting their money. Is there any way to get that money?
- Very new to game.
From the wiki...
Rank Base demesne Notes
Baron/Count/Duke 1
Stewardship
The stewardship bonus is = 0.15 x (your stewardship +50%of wifes stewardship) and x 1.3 if gavelkind.
If I had a 14 stewardship, and the wife had (14) +7 = 21 x 1.3gavel = 27.3 = x 0.15 = 4.095, with 4.00 needed to go from 1 to 2.
And a single point less on mine or hers and you are stuck at 1? So basically you and your wife have to total 21 for 2. Non-gavelkind needs 27 total for 2. Which means without a wife its virtually impossible.
And to get 3 demense? Gavelkind would need you and your wife to get a combined 47 stewardship to reach? hahahaha.
Why even have a chart that shows the increase up to level +16 demesne?
*I'm really hoping to God Ive read this all wrong.
14+7=21 so you get 1 (base) + 3 = 4 demesne limit - and that's with the law at the lowest possible and no gavelkind.
Having 7 stewardship on your ruler will do it on the base game. 14 for a third spot. You add half of your wife's stewardship for the final value, so a wife with 14 will always give +1 to the limit. Gavelkind almost reduces the needed stewardship down to 5, so you increase the limit at 6, 11, 16, 21....
Hover/move your mouse over it and the tooltip will tell (with an unnecessary amount of info, IMHO).
Damage done to opposition.

With respect to technology spread I understand that the building bonus is based on technology spreading 'into' a county, e.g. if I build a university in a City X in County Y, technology spread into that county will be increased.
However, is this also true for the technology spread bonuses given by great works (the Grand University and the Grand Library) or do these apply in other areas. If so do they apply across the realm, the demense of the leige who controls them, or the demense of the ruler who controls the counties they are in?

Inheritance again...
If my son is my count level vassal, and then inherits his father's kingdom which is outside my empire, will I loose him as a vassal? He is not my heir due to absolute cognatic and an oldet sister.

In most of case, yes, you'll lose him and his countries.(if we leaving aside the high crown authority/regulated inheritance law of father's title
Only if he becomes a vassal king before the inheritance, the father's kingdom will integrate into your empire on succession.
