Today's pickle... decided for a quickie 2 points after thinking about an hour what to do this turn.

Player: Yellow
Colour: Yellow
Tile drawn: RRRG (T-junction road and a grass side)
Score: 2 points for Yellow, none for others

World record holder for a single game of Carcassonne using 10 007 tiles!

Note!

The black knight in the topleft city section, the city tile is supposed to be with a pennant. Forgot to change it.

I drew absolutely useless cloister. No places to put a farmer at all!
So, I made the only thing I could - stop someone else from possible easy connect to the biggest farm so far.

Sorry to cause any confusion but...

...the thief I placed on my last turn was a quick deploy and reclaim for 2 points for the road. I wasn't claiming the open road. I left my meeple down to show that I'd claimed the road, but he has been moved southwards by one tile in subsequent pictures. Hopefully this can be seen from the pictures.

In light of this, I imagine Yellow will want to adjust his move to take the 3-point road rather than the 2-point although it doesn't make any difference to MrNumbers' go...

Confusion indeed. I will take the 3 point road by turning my junction tile 180 degree so the roads connects west (3 points for me), east and south.

Here is my updated move that should have everything on the board set up properly, with the exception of the GGGG cloister with the Red on, topleft corner.

Player / Colour: Yellow
Tile drawn: RRRG (T-junction road, one side grass)
Score: 3 points for Yellow, none for others



Hope you can spot something different with the board.  ;) Gotta have them easter eggs.

I drew an CRRF tile, couldn't do anything special, i had a little doubt to connect it to 1 of the 2 unclaimed cities. but later decided to expand my field.

its on the left side


Also here are the last tiles that are not yet drawn. You can see lots of roadpieces!

FFRR tile placed above my cloister completed the cloister and a 7-tile road belonging to SRBO and I.

So: 7 points for SRBO  :green-meeple: :), 16 points for me  :blue-meeple: ;D

I appreciate that this probably won't be a very popular choice but I went with it anyway mostly because I needed the meeples back. I'm only too well aware that my being catapulted unexpectedly into the lead is very much a temporary thing, but I'm going to enjoy it while it lasts...






Game update so far:

Features:
Completed cities: 6
Completed road: 5 (1 unclaimed)
Completed cloisters: 1

Score breakdown:
Yellow: 10 (2-tile city, 3-tile road, 3-tile road)
MrNumbers: 4 (2-tile city)
SRBO: 19 (3-tile city with pennant, 2-tile city, 7-tile road)
Rosco: 8 (4-tile city)
danisthirty: 22 (2-tile road, 2-tile city, 7-tile road, cloister)


>> Yellow (10):  { :meeple: }  MrNumbers (4):  {}  SRBO (19):  { :green-meeple: :green-meeple: :green-meeple: }  Rosco (8 ):  { :black-meeple: :black-meeple: }  danisthirty (22):  { :blue-meeple: :blue-meeple: :blue-meeple: :blue-meeple: }
