Here a friendly game between Ross and me.
With some expansion as the Russian monasteries , which I ignored , but the truth is that it was entertaining.

I had some luck with the last tile and a great fight for the main farm .

When you lose, do not look at what you lost, but what's left to win ..

An exciting friendly game between kettlefish, Chuck and me with the Inns and Cathedrals and the Princess and Dragon expansions.
Lucky game for me. It was unbelievable that I drew almost all cloister tiles, it's fair to say that I won the game thanks to them as I collected 40 points with my monks. In one occasion I needed an RFFF tile to finish one of my cloisters, and I drew it right in the next round (and of course it was a cloister tile again). On the other hand, I was waiting for a simple city finisher tile (to complete a big city) for ages, and when I finally got one it was already too late. In the end there was a big battle for a 18 pt farm which was eventually tied between me and kettlefish but Chuck had a big follower waiting for joining there, and if he had done that then he would have won the game.
Thanks for kettlefish and Chuck for this enjoyable game.

Played a friendly game against Miicha from Finland, where it isn't as cold anymore as in the middle of the winter ^^, expansions were I&C, T&B and Besiegers (a first encounter with it for Miicha)

Valheru: 198
Miicha: 160

Difference of 38 points isn't a justification of this close game. I was really lucky with the right tiles at the right moment. We started off with pretty big cities on both sides, each sticking to his own. The builder was really busy during the whole game. A cathedral came at the wrong time for me and I placed it in Miicha's city right in the middle, thinking it couldn't be finished. Boy, was I wrong! Attempts to join in at multiple times were blocked or countered so I had nothing on that city. The fun thing is that besiegers can do an awful lot when encountered with those huge cities. Twice I managed to half the points that Miicha could win.

Meepleshortage was a pretty big factor in this game as well, both Miicha and I had to face fases of desperate meeple shortage, due to good blocking of the both of us, or just unfinished projects because of getting the wrong tiles. But, to be honest, I feel that Miicha had the bigger problem with it in the end.

The farmgame was the difference though. Miicha engaged on the middle farm and we were pretty even during the most of the game. Then I made a move with my big meeple to secure it (with another possible to connect) and was able to block off attempts made by Miicha, as you can see at the left of the screen and a bit below. The big red meeple was one of those. At the same time, I was pretty solid in the farm on the top, which made a spectacular 36 points in the end, because of the pig/finished besieged cities and grabbing some points at other smaller farms at the end resulting in a staggering 84 points for me!

It has been a week or more since I played an online game, so thank you Miicha. I thoroughly enjoyed it!

Thanks for the game guys. That was a blast. I liked that even though we were playing quite aggressively it was still a fun and friendly game! :) :(y)

PS - I must apologise to Miicha for drawing all the cccf tiles when all he needed was one of them! >:D

So I took the worst beating in online Carcassonne playing against Leven (with his favorite expansion I&C, he smartly mentioned after the game  :P )

40 tiles left and all my meeples were trapped or in a farm. It was so frustrating haha. Credit to Leven's play, insanely good in my opinion. You can see a screen of that glorious occassion.

My luck turned a bit when getting two needed tiles in quick succession but it definitely wasn't enough to even approach Leven.

Final score: 122-50.

I feel sick.  :-\

How about settling a game in advanced next Wednesday, so day after tomorrow, around 9 pm CET, would anybody be interested?
