Isn't there some kind of weighting by distance? I vaguely remember something about the northern kingdoms being more likely to win the northern crusades.

It would have to be a severe weight difference, though, because I (and some others) did so much more in the war than he ever did. It would also have to be based on capitals, too, because I do have some Italian holdings.

Tarran has the "Tarran Bug", a bug which causes the affected character to repeatedly hit teammates while dual-wielding instead of whatever the hell he is shooting at.

Playing CK+ probably matters, though. I'm not familiar with that mod in person, though, but I know Project Balance changed the whole warscore distribution process a lot when I installed it.

Also, I got a CK2 Trading Card on Steam today. Whatever that does. What does it do?
Anyway, it's called "The Voyage", and it depicts a big (non-viking ;) ) ship. A hint about a future DLC?

CK2+ adds a lot of small changes, so its possible there's something you aren't aware of.  I know that it specifically changes how crusade lands are awarded, but I can't remember how.

Beyond that, warscore has usually seemed pretty consistent to me.  Can you check what their warscore is before the crusade ended?  Its possible there's some quirk of how lands taken in crusade are awarded that is messing with you, and in that case the game may show you as having a higher warscore before the war ends.

I'm just throwing ideas out there, I've never seen anything like that happen.  Once, an English Duke I was married to somehow won a Crusade for Sicily and become independent, but I didn't see else she was competing with so its possible she really did contribute that much.

You misspelled seance.  Are possessing Draignean?  Are you actually a ghost in the shell? You have to tell us if you are, that's the rule

Trading Card. What does it do?
Trading cards are Valve's new system to get idiots to buy inane vanity items.
You get trading cards from playing a game and you can then craft the set of cards into a badge for your steam profile. It gives you minor rewards to craft a badge including profile backgrounds and emoticons. It's impossible to get a full set of cards without getting a "booster pack" (which is a rare random drop given out) and a person is forced to trade or buy items from the community market which Valve makes a cut out of.

And this is why there will never be a Half-life 3.

A hint about a future DLC?
The trading cards are all based off previous artwork in the game including the various DLC. "The Voyage" card is artwork that was apart of "The Republic" DLC if I remember correctly.

I think the differences are that they offer you the ability to give it to relatives, and others in the crusade may want some land in it. That shouldn't effect the actual warscore as it only comes into play after the war is won.

Beyond that, warscore has usually seemed pretty consistent to me.  Can you check what their warscore is before the crusade ended?  Its possible there's some quirk of how lands taken in crusade are awarded that is messing with you, and in that case the game may show you as having a higher warscore before the war ends.
How would I have known that they had 6K more warscore if I didn't check before the war ended? Anyway, I had less warscore.

I'm actually surprised how readily people fork out real money for these. I just put them right up for sale when I get them since they're just annoying to have in the inventory, and they usually sell within hours.

Oh dear lord. The dilemma of whether to not support the morally rotten pseudo-fraud scheme or to MONIES. I find myself in it.
