That's amazing! What a great deal!

Which games did you choose?

Happy birthday from me also. I hope you have had a wonderful day! 8) :(y)
Thank you, Dan!

I chose Patchwork (still didn't play it till the moment; actually, it was my wife's spontaneous choice in the shop), Ticket to Ride Germany, Sagrada and The Noah's Ark (little game for my daughter - magnetic puzzle).

Happy Birthday Mr Numbers, I hope you had chance to roll the dice at your local game shop!
Thanks, Decar!
Yes, my annual visit to FLGS was very successful! I took 4 games with overall value 114.90 EUR, but paid only 8.90 EUR for them! Firstly, I rolled 5 (50% discount), then I used all my gift cards, some loyalty points, so only 8.90 left to pay! :(y) :D

Thanks, Steve, for organizing this league!  :(y)
Am I missing something, or no games were played in Championship division? :o

Last game of the season is over!

MrNumbers vs. Rosco
285:235
4:1

A quick game with Rosco, and again I lost the farms, but managed to win everything else :)
With this win I avoided relegation :o (phew!)

Thanks everyone for the games and for the patience ::)

At least one win in this season, and again, I failed to use my own expansion - my barn left unplaced. Still, I managed to win all other features, but gold helped me to win in overall points. Thanks for the enjoyable game, Thomas! :)

P.S. To avoid relegation, I must win Rosco with at least 2 league points difference (4-1 or 5-0), or 1 league point (3-2) and 168 game points difference.

MrNumbers vs. Leven, game 2.
102:78

Tiles loved me that evening, I had a lot of luck, and it was stronger than Leven's excellent gameplay :D

Ouch, I just found out that our first game's results also not published!

That game was much closer, throughout the game we were even, point in point. Only with last tile I was able to snatch a victory.

23 sets, that's well 1656 tiles ??? :o
Well done, hope the tournament will get awesome.
Tournament went OK, not so much participants (15), but a lot of fun was guaranteed :)

Looking at that original image I would have thought the "good" green was the bit of the tile that hadn't been exposed to sunlight, and the bit that was bluer had been bleached by the sun - just like a lot of the spines of books on my bookshelf that have caught the (lower angled) winter sun over the many years they've been sitting there! But certainly worth experimenting with - any idea how long they might have been left?
I think wolnic is right: I compared my original GC tiles and they have "good" green, which is on half of two tiles. Of course, I could still do an experiment and make them at least all the same, but it will be "bad" green. Good project for my son, actually :D And - I have no idea how long they have been left on sunlight.

Prehistory:
For my annual tournament with expansions I have taken from local distributor some basic sets. This time they (sets) were messed up, and they offered to me to do the job: make all sets as complete as possible. It took me 2 complete evenings to sort everything out, and I was able to create 23 complete sets, with many-many spare tile left. For such a job they gave me a 45 EUR gift card! :D Very generous!
Now, on topic: also they gave me unneeded expansion German Castles, which spend some time on sun with one corner. This created an interesting effect - ugly green became comfortable green! Just curious - is it possible to fix all other ugly green tiles? :o What do you think? Worth a try? ;)

P.S. And what about my question about adjusting tie breakers?
