So, how does someone get knighted, and what does being knighted do for you?

IIrc, you do stuff to bring renown and glory to the Commonwealth.  And then you get a cool title.

You get mentioned in the Queen's Birthday or New Year's Honour's List.

 

You get to be called Sir Mawthtex

 

Ladies are made into Dames.

 

You have to be a British National or from a British Territory - otherwise it's just an Honorary Knighthood and technically you are not a Sir. An example of this is Bob Geldof

 

Why do you ask?

My friend and I were talking about knights and I thought you people might be good sources of information.

knighthood doesn't come with a suit of armour and a castle and a horse though.

 

 

It should do though, that would be cool.

At the very least a sword.

I can knight you Maw, but don't get mad if I, er, accidentally cut your head off.

Get yourself queened and we'll talk

Getting yourself Queened is statistically more likely to end with headchoppyoffness than getting yourself Knighted.

Well it was not mentioned that Ley has to make himself queen to England. Maybe he can make himself queen of a-place-that-does-not-exist. Of course there is one such place called that. Or maybe make himself Queen Bee. Then Maw would be Knight Bee and would get...honey?

What about this guy?

I'd prefer being king of a random place that I made a kingdom myself... Kings can behead, er, knight people too, right?

Hong Kong was a British Territory :)

Kings can behead knights. And kings have great swords or are those knights.

Sir Berf wouldn't work anyway.

 

Sir Berfington...

Well you can be a knight in Light Faction

 

I don't know why but I started humming Desi Boyz on reading the title of this thread. Don't bother googling or youtubing since most of you won't understand it

You can be a Master in the Shadow

But Master doesn't give you the title Sir

it gives you the title of master, which sounds much scarier and shadowie 

 

 

Plus no one is gonna call you sir here anyway.

I have been called ma'am however.

 

Makes me feel like the Queen lol

You've never been in a Bond movie.

 

I call bull. You aren't the real queen at all!

Master Berf, by the way, is a touch unfortunate.

 

I am ok without titles from this point on. Berf Shadow pretty much says everything it needs to say.

 

Maybe Berf is the title.
