68 The city of Carcassonne does count when scoring farms at the end of the game.
Scott: why should the City of Carcassonne be counted for farmers but not for the King ?
If the city of Carcassonne should count for the King the first time you get the King tile would be if you complete a city of 13 tiles because the City of Carcassonne has 12 tiles.
The King starts the game at the side of the playing field. As soon as a player completes the first city, he or she should take the King tile. If, during the course of play, another player completes a larger city - which means he or she places the final tile of this city - then he or she receives the king.
If the city of Carcassonne should count ...

I have added a dreaded red footnote to the upcoming CAR (which I should get out in December).
The owner (or owners) of the farm score 3 points for every completed city which borders the farm, or lies within it.
The city of Carcassonne does count when scoring farms at the end of the game.
At the end of the game, the player in possession of the King scores 1 point for every completed city.
I'm not a native speaker, but I think the City of Carcassonne was ever a complete city, but it was never completed.
