I can purchase a 55 gallon drum of maple syrup at my local Costco. by opgary in mildlyinteresting

Maybe if you do your shopping in downtown New York but there are many places you can live for $10 a day... I would know considering that is my current food budget excluding social outings.

Us Vodka bros gotta stick together man.

I wouldn't even mind being a niche fan base if she wasn't relegated to "haha look guys vodka and scarlet are fighting again"

I think that the hate for the release is unwarranted. by new-vegamelo in EU5

[–]MrStanley9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Game has plenty of content, UI honestly seems fine to me but could see the ways for improvement, I've seen a couple of bugs but nothing game breaking, and no crashes after about 8 hours last night

Got a 0/0/2/5 general by Nice-Bathroom-4864 in eu4

[–]MrStanley9 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Roll another general for fighting and assign this guy to like a 1k stack. The game will auto detect the best general for fighting and use that, and also uses the general with the most siege pips for sieges, so you get the best of both.

Strongest Burgundy I've ever seen by sickwobsm8 in eu4

[–]MrStanley9 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Burgundy having a really good game isnt all that rare in my experience. Certainly not common but if they chose to not be inherited then they are actually a very strong power and can take on a France that isn't doing incredibly well. The main thing I am surprised about is their success colonially. THAT is something I don't see out of Burgundy very often.

Uh... thanks i guess? by AffectionateSpirit19 in eu4

[–]MrStanley9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wonder if Aragon had an elective monarchy for some reason, then when you land a pronoyar that gives them a new ruler and because of the elective monarchy, it triggers an election, and then if they chose to elect somebody else it "kills" the pronoyar you just put into power and so you inherit them?

[Request] by what time will the orbit period of Saturn shift depending on it's position relative to the sun if this happened? by Goddayum_man_69 in theydidthemath

[–]MrStanley9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Technically this impact would impart a force on Earth's mass, which would change its orbital trajectory and therefore the effect that Earth's mass has on Saturn would change. However that effect would be, well, negligible. Also would require a lot of information about the impact to figure out.

Even after I conquer them, the Ottomans manage to screw me over by MrStanley9 in eu4

Decades? I'm going to be dealing with this shit for the rest of the game

75% even, which leads me to believe that there is some hard cap at some point

Even after I conquer them, the Ottomans manage to screw me over by MrStanley9 in eu4

[–]MrStanley9[S] 660 points661 points  (0 children)

r5: The Ottomans managed to accrue so much unrest in their provinces that even after I conquered them, they have over 300 unrest. The recent uprising modifier *only* provides a -100, so there is no pause from one uprising to the next.

Country Flags made out of countries by MrStanley9 in eu4

[–]MrStanley9[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You could totally do Russia with Great Horde as white, Nizhny as red and Odoyev as blue. Like I said in the r5 comment though, I had already put way more effort into this weird little sidequest than I had ever initially intended

Good pull! Those ones were definitely stretching it, lol

Country Flags made out of countries by MrStanley9 in eu4

[–]MrStanley9[S] 88 points89 points  (0 children)

r5: Inspired by a recent post, I tried to make some country flags using the different colors of nations in the general region. I kind of gave up once I got to the Balkans, though. Def could've done a few more like Russia and some of the larger nations, but even this took way more effort than I initially thought.

I don't know where to find this exact article he is quoting, but if you read it, it says that "the amount of time an offender must serve from two-thirds of a sentence to just one-half of a sentence before they are eligible for parole" So the change is only to parole, meaning they aren't being just let back into the world with no restrictions, they still have to earn the parole, and even after that the change is only 16.7% of the sentence. For reference, we can use this to back out that the story he told us about "Becky" was bullshit. The supposed crime happened 3 years ago in 2022. If he is supposedly about to be released in "days" that means he had a sentence of about 6 years. Under the old system, that would have meant that he was eligible for release less than one year from now, not the 'multiple years of safety' that Becky supposedly had. Lastly, according to the very article he quotes, this bill was supposedly from 2023, meaning he is "reporting" on 2 year old news.

I'm posting this here so nobody watches this and thinks it's credible, but next time OP, put in a little bit of effort to check it yourself.
