Oh no! The Dragon has raided the Easter Bunny's basket!

Luckily the Fairy has come to the rescue to protect the rest of the eggs. :))

Awesome. Easter Bunny is on my print list. I really should get that sorted!

Thanks JT Atomico for the great photo with the dragon and the Easter Fan-Expansion.

HiG asked if they are allowed to use the photo for their twitter and facebook account.

Yes, of course they can use it! I would be honoured :)

I am @_jamiehumphries on Twitter if they want to mention me.

I think Leven as a single participant has won the prize without a vote.

By the way, I think one of the reasons that more people haven't been involved in this competition is that it does not appear in the Recent Topics section of the home page, which is where I usually look for topics to read. I only found out about it because of Decar's links from other topics!

I've been moaning about the front page needing a rethink for quite a while,  I sometimes double post in General so people see things.  I always make sure I click "Show Unread posts since last visit" too.

I've been tweeting about it too!

Lukey-Dukey and I played a little game last night. Seeing as it was a school night and getting a bit late we just used the King and Robber Baron tiles and danisthirty's Trick or Treat fan expansion with the base game. If I'm honest I don't think there were enough tiles to allow the Trick or Treater adequate movement, so there were quite a lot of tricks and treats! I hadn't used this fan expansion for some time so must confess that I had to look up the rules (http://www.carcassonnecentral.com/community/index.php?topic=2163.0), however I do still have a few points I'd like to clarify - I'll post these in the next few days.

Just wanted to say thanks to danisthirty for the expansion and also to quevy for helping to motivate me to actually get the tiles out and play a real life game for a change (most of my games this year have been on JCZ or the Android app).

Here's photo from part way through the game where we're just about to score the big city at the top. Lukey-Dukey had carefully placed one of the fan expansion tiles to get a second meeple (monkey) into the city and then drew a CCFF to place it just beneath that tile to take ownership of the city with two meeples and claim the King bonus tile too!

I'd love to get in on this competition, but I don't yet have any fan expansions printed! I keep meaning to, but my problem is that I'd probably make a mess of it and I couldn't stand to use rubbish looking tiles.

But it's decided! I will print some out and use them tonight! Or maybe, tomorrow. Soon, anyway.

When is the competition running to?
Look to the north. Keep looking. There's nothing coming from the south.

Today, I had a couple of games including the base game, the astronomers, the temptress and the labyrinths.  We also used the score discs and my most loved carcassonne item; my pewter meeples. 

I won both games and I am not sure of the score.  Here are a few pictures:

I'm bias of course, but those tiles look great - how did the expansions play?

A couple of days ago me and my wife played a quite extraordinary game where – except for the normal followers and the scoring table – there were no official elements involved, only unofficial tiles and figures.

Before writing a little summary, I attach two photos of the game, and offer you a little puzzle:
Can you name all 12 unofficial expansions which gave at least one tile to this game?

To make things a bit more difficult, some of the expansions were represented by only one or two of their tiles (while the complete downloadable expansion contains a lot more), so this may be a good test about how familiar you are with those expansions.  :)

Already solved:

It's probably a bit late (I keep forgetting to post it), but here's an photo which shows the Sinkholes expansion (and 2 trapped meeples).

@Leven that game looks great with all the unusual tiles, what a fun idea. I'd be keen to find out (in due course obvs) what these fan expansions are as they look fab.
