Q1:MrNumbers was busy again in July, with his Carcassonne Central Online Quiz. There were a total of six contestants with final scores ranging from 18 to 24 out of 30. But who took first place overall and was able to add a copy of Japanese Monasteries to their collection as a reward?
Q2:Thodekey started a wonderful debate about tile counting in January, and most of us admitted that we will at least try to count tiles during games to give an idea of what's left in the bag. But someone was so surprised and disgusted by us all that they felt compelled to start the "Clean Carcassonne" campaign and offered personalised invisible halos to the first 100 people to sign up. Who was this?
Q3:The last game of the Mixed Minis League (including The Fliers, The Goldmines, Mage & Witch and Crop Circles 2) was played towards the end of October. Unusually however, there were two players who completed it without losing a single game! One of them went on to win the competition, but who was the other?
Q4:For the third year in a row, Decar planned, organised and ran our GenCan't SoloCon competitions in August for those of us who couldn't make it to Gencon. The "Abbots Walk" competition was won with an impressive score of 1137, but which forum member managed this particularly impressive feat?
Q5:I ran another "Spare Bits Giveaway" in November this year, and was delighted to see the generosity that this inspired in so many forum members! One of the items I gave away was a spare tile from a set of 12 that were originally produced as exclusive prizes for everyone who completed the Advent Quiz last year. Who claimed this in the giveaway?
Q6:Our 2017 basegame league ran from January to September. This was settled over a total of 210 games of Carcassonne played between 15 of us, with 39,011 points being scored in the process! Two competitors found themselves in potentially winning positions at the start of the final round, but who was it that put Merlin_89 on the receiving end of his only 2 - 0 loss, thus allowing Jéré a chance to snatch the top spot away from him?
Q7:In January I proposed the idea of the "10 x 10 challenge" specifically for Carcassonne. This is something I borrowed from BoardGameGeek, but with a twist that involved playing 10 specific expansions on at least 10 occasions each throughout the year. Unfortunately I fell behind after a month or so as I struggled to motivate myself to keep track of all the games I'd played and soon dropped the idea, but not before I'd completed a game against one other CarcC regular via JCloisterZone. Who was this?

Who was this?It's a shame I didn't stay up to date with this, but combined with the basegame league (and the rest of my life) I just had too much going on at the time Anyway, it can be seen from this post that the name I was looking for here belongs to... jungleboy!Winning response time was: 55s (<--- ridiculous )
