Hello, glad you received the tile OK! (I've removed the photo as not everyone has theirs yet and I didn't want it to spoil the surprise  ;))

Your tile is from the Inns & Cathedrals league (it says on it) which you did take part in. Nothing has gone out for the Abbey & Mayor league yet as it is still ongoing. So, no need to send anything on to anyone!

Glad you liked the meeple too!  :) :(y)

Oh, so this is for the ins and cathedrals league? :) OK!  ;D But, didn't I get my surprises already?  ??? The cool meeple bags, the tile and sticker? :) So this is like an extra surprise?  ??? COOOL!!!  ;D :(y)

Hello again  :)

I can't be 100% certain (just 99.9%) but I'm pretty sure you've taken part in two of our online competitions. The two listed below:


The first set of prizes you received included a set of meeple bags and a tile (and sticker) with "World Cup of Carcassonne Central" written on it. You should have received these towards the end of last year. The package you received more recently was in recognition of your participation in our Inns & Cathedrals league and included a tile (and sticker) with "Inns & Cathedrals League" written on it. Hope this clears everything up, there should be plenty more competitions to enter in future!  :(y)

I will use the Dan meeple as the teacher. :) Like, in the mini expansion school and the mega many roads to the school.  ^-^

I like this idea, although would worry for my students if I was their teacher!  :))

Aaaaah.. yes OK!  ;D NOW I understand!!  :)) Yes, I was in both of them.. :)

Now I see...  ^-^ :(y) All clear now!

But it says "Expansion League #2" on the tile and sticker so I got confused and didn't know what league that was..  ;D Silly me.  :-[

It might have confused you, that I&C, the first expansion was League #2, and T&B, the second, was League #1

I'm not sure. As I've given away a few tiles and got a few, I need to do a recount. But it should be close to 4300 draw tiles. If I count in River, Starter, Abbeys etc, then it's definately over 4600 tiles.  :o

Hopefully set a world record. I'm pretty sure I got the highest tile cound as a private owner by now. This is part of the 10 000 tiles game I'm working on.

We'll see. Next month I'll be having the house for myself so the living room will be a good opportunity to do something with all of this then.  :)

I've just returned home after spending one week abroad, and when my wife told me that I received a package from Italy I knew it would be the surprise package of Dan and Quevy. :) It included the trophy for winning the 2nd expansion league (Inns & Cathedrals), two new tiles, a little barrel piece, and a Dan meeple.  :D
Thank you guys for this wonderful surprise!

I will use the Dan meeple as the teacher. :) Like, in the mini expansion school and the mega many roads to the school.  ^-^

My idea is to use it as Smart Bob (Dan) the Meeple. Hopefully Dan doesn't mind living in small huts on farms. ;)

Glad you liked your surprise package Leven, and well done again on winning the Inns & Cathedrals league.

Please post a picture of you with your trophy so we can add it to the hall of fame!  :)

You should post pictures of your giant game when you set it up

Read this variant, and it sounds interesting. However, I think they left out one very important point in the rules: if you are allowed to move wood twice in a double turn with extra secret tile or not.
