Surprised Inns and Cahtedrals isn't on the list. Went for Traders and Bobsters (Builders, but we call the wooden figure Bob the Builder in my play gang.)

You could pick three.

My 1st choice was Traders & Builders.
2nd choice Sheep & Hills

3rd choice was either gonna be Mayor/Abbey or Count/King, but ultimately went with Count/King, since it offers more tiles and I like the idea of combining several mini-expansion in one box.

I went for

1st Mayor and Abbey, this one i liked the best of all.
2nd Traders and Builders
3th Dragon because of the 30 tiles in it. (count and king does add a lot too, not as much drawing tiles..)

HiG has posted the Carcassonne-Forum (CarcF) this information too.

And they explained today that the expansion poll has nothing to do for the "Carcassonne - new edition".

But they posted there that we fans have to pay more money to build our collection...

Here is the link to the topic at CarcF:
Eure Lieblings-Erweiterung? (http://www.carcassonne-forum.de/viewtopic.php?f=155&t=3160)

At HiG homepage is also the information:

So according to Google Translate they say that they already know that I&C is very popular, which is why it was not included. Surely they must be aware that T&B is equally popular, if not more so, than I&C? Here is our poll  (http://www.carcassonnecentral.com/community/index.php?topic=1192.msg14640#msg14640)asking for everyone's favourite large expansion.

My family is divided on this.  We don't have I&C, but I wouldn't put it in the top 3 after playing with it a bunch in JCZ. 

My wife loves Abbey and Mayor.
My son loves Traders, but he could live without the builders. 
I need a few more games with Hills & Sheep to decide.  Right now, I am leaning towards the Abbey.

Dragon & Princess
Abbey & Mayor
Bridges, Castles & Bazaars

Three must-haves for any good game. They all add some good pieces, small sets of rules and some interesting tiles (D&P is well loved by me and my wife!)

  • Traders & Builders
  • The Princess & The Dragon
  • Abbey & Mayor

+1 to this (didn't realise order was significant - was it?)

HiG has posted the Carcassonne-Forum (CarcF) this information too.

I wonder why they didn't also post their survey here, since they have an account. If Decar hadn't spotted this via Twitter then we might not have spotted it at all... :(

I would have voted for the GQ mini expansion (as well as I&C, of course)

My wife and kid have switched to Hills & Sheep.  I guess we will have to vote again!

We always play with the GQ11 mini expansion.  It should be included in the base game IMHO.

Eek!  Is this pointing at an expansion  for the 'classic' edition then?  I might not have room in my 'basically wooden' Big Box! Disaster!

No - opportunity - to buy another box :)

I'm already looking at having to buy 2 more for the spin-offs I own!  I'm also thinking of trying to create a bespoke solution for them - those Castle segments are a nuisance!

I voted:
– Princess & Dragon
– Hills & Sheep
– Catapult

I admit I voted for the last one because I really want a new version of it that works out its ridiculousness and replaces those aspects with an actual serious expansion. But, I'd also rather have the current version reprinted in the new art than not have it reprinted at all.
