I'm guessing... infinity billion and a half.

That is a lot. :@

Made my day.  :)

Didn't realise how heavy tiles can be. They came in a pallet, in a huge truck. Felt overkill.
World record holder for a single game of Carcassonne using 10 007 tiles!

I’m sure he’ll get round to that in good time. He needs to count them and bath with them all first...

a tile bath - great - but please Paul - take a photo from this tile bath...  ^-^
----------------------------------
And please tell us how much time do you need to unwrap all these new tiles.
Perhaps you can take some photos during this work.
----------------------------------
these new tiles - are they all from the base game?

I'm not ready to update the amount of tiles yet, might do a contest first, with the question how many tiles I ordered. (Guess now you know why no new expansion coming out as the factory was busy with my order.)  :@

I'm confused. Some want me to take a tile bath, some don't. I guess I'll make one and see if it's viable for display!  :o

They have gone sheet and all into storage boxes for now. If I get the time and space some day, I'll start making a popping tiles video.  :yellow-meeple: My main work is, well work, and then I need to focus on my LEGO sales.

That would be amazing, although I'd always dither over whether to play as me or zombie me and games of Carcassonne would take forever.

THANK YOU QUEVY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You are an all star  :(y) :(y) :(y)

Today I received these lovely clear meeples from one of query's generous contests!

I love that these match my avatar and look forward to using them in a game  :white-meeple:

They are well made and the clarity is very good as well. 

Cheers!
Franks

Wanna play Carc? Can we add just one more expansion?

Given Paul's hoarding issues I was lucky to get hold of these in time for the UK Meetup Event on the 31st Oct:
