That would be awesome  :(y)  But maybe not as separate posts.

I had to double check your 238 score; it's obviously a magic number :)

Keep the entries coming!

Tonight I'll be posting more detailed rules for some variants for #gencantsolocon Euro day, which is Saturday.

As usual, with a disaster. I keep putting myself into a corner mid-thru any game.

Off to the gym now but I'll have at it when I come home tonight.  :@ 29 games so far. Even here I can't win. LOL!

231 for this game. I messed up the bigger city near the top and pulled a lot of city close tiles near the start. Almost managed all the monasteries. Not the best score ever but I had good fun going it. Really quite relaxing :orange-meeple:

Edit: I originally said I'd got 321 (hence the posts below). Sorry for the confusion!

Curt194 used 7 followers in his game and not only 6 followers - then it is easier to earn so many points.

The picture with the scoreboard - that can't be the final picture of it, see the landscape tiles - it shows different to the final playing field (the followers).

That was indeed a typo on my part (sorry everyone!) :-X

As for the photos showing different followers I took a photo before final scoring then the photo of the scoreboard once I'd finished counting (I ise meeples to count cities).

Also I was under the impression 7 followers was the standard…I'm not really competing just wanted to see how I did. Sorry for the confusion.

Argh I keep forgetting to actually place meeples on the tiles ::). Oh well, 222 for now.

[Edit] Woohoo, 100th post :gray-meeple:

It is.

7 + 1 for the score track. You were correct.
