- Gingerbread Man: Ahhhh! It is so relaxing to be in Taiwan!

- Snowman: Listen! No discussions, just the wind...
- Danisthirty: Yep. It seems so odd.
- Santa Claus: This is just a phase, in a few rounds you'll be missing him.
- Snowman: I'm oozing inner peace...

- Danisthirty: Keep it that way!

Question #12: The Snowman places this tile completing the city. It's Yellow's turn. How many points does each player score?

Notes:
* The fairy is assigned to the Blue Meeple.
* We are assuming Yellow does not move the fairy. If you consider it, no problem.

- Santa Claus: Everything under control.

- Danisthirty: Ooooh! I see the Russian delegation collaborated in their question.
- Santa Claus: Yep... It seems Supervisor Nick has made friends with them after all.
- Danisthirty: Yes, he is a lucky meeple.

- Gingerbread Man: I'm interested in the outcome of this question... Let's see, let's see...

Question #13: Santa Claus places this tile on Blue's behalf, who immediately places the black tunnel token close to the tile just placed. This means the road is completed when the second tunnel token is placed. How many points does each player score?

Notes:
* The fairy is assigned to the Blue Meeple.

- Baba Yaga: My uncle Vodyanoy's stenchy swamp is over there...
- Suvervisor Nick: I see... So enticing for a swim with its skeletons and all... even in Winter.

- Baba Yaga: I'm going to stop by the church to see when we can book it.
- Suvervisor Nick: (trying to make a heart with his stiff arms) Yes, run, my dear... I'll miss you.

- Suvervisor Nick: I'll have a look around...
- Baba Yaga: I know how this works... Don't let my uncle fool you for too long...

- Baba Yaga: I was always receiving bills for lost points... My already 3 late husbands couldn't stay at home... No! Poor meeples!

- Suvervisor Nick:

- Danisthirty: Am I late?
- Santa Claus: Nope... There is still time.

- Count Meepula: And well, what do you have to say?
- Orange Builder: Where is my supporting knight? I have to go to my supply if he's not around!
- Count Meepula: You shut up! Anybody ordered you to speak?

- Supervisor Nick: This is most irregular! I'm going to file a formal complaint...!
- Count Meepula: To whom? To the Count of Carcassonne?
- Count Meepula: That felon is already in jail! I took over the city by surprise and I'm the new Count in town!
- Supervisor Nick: WHAT? WHY?

- Count Meepula: He has been accused of being too lax.
- Supervisor Nick: He got rid of that insidious Grinch.
- Count Meepula: Wrong answer!

- Count Meepula: The Grinch was the only one doing his job!... YOU are the one to blame!

- Supervisor Nick: Me? WHAAAT?
- Count Meepula: You and your soft manners

... Sending away the only righteous meeple here.
- Count Meepula: You almost got all the meeples on strike...
- Supervisor Nick: They had some fair demands... We were handling the situation pretty well...
- Count Meepula: (sharply) EXCUSES! I won't hear anything else from your foul mouth!

- Count Meepula: The leaders of this revolt will taste the rigors of The Ultimate Punishment

- Blue Mayor: (horrified) The Ultimate Punishment?

- Red Abbot: (Squealing) I want to go back to my box!!!
- Count Meepula: Stop babbling... Don't want to hear anything about your gardens... You are a disgrace to the Carcassonne Classic and Only True Edition (COTE^TM)!
- Yellow Meeple: You interrupted my scoring... My player has one less meeple right now!
- Count Meepula: YOU ALL SHUT UP!

- Yellow Meeple:

- Count Meepula: You'll be questions and tortured until you reveal the truth behind your actions!
- Supervisor Nick: What truth? What are you talking about!
- Count Meepula: I will only repeat it once more: "Why are you replacing the Classic Edition Spiel tiles with fake New Edition ones? Where are the others?"
- All the prisoners: WHAAAAT?
- Count Meepula: I will burn New Edition Knock-Off right away! Behold the Original Spiel '21 tile!
- Supervisor Nick: But...
- Blue Mayor: You must be mistak... (interrupted abruptly)
- Count Meepula: What part of The Ultimate Punishment don't you understand?
- Blue Mayor:

- Count Meepula: Just something to soften you up: Guards! Take this insurgent to Torture Area 1...
- Grey Meeple: Yes, Your Grace! The board game with no pennants!
- Blue Mayor: (dragging his wooden feet while taken away) NOOOOOOOO!
- Count Meepula: Insolent! 300 games for starters!
- Blue Mayor: (in the distance) NOOOOOOOO! Release meeeeeeee.....
- Count Meepula: Any clues about the missing tiles?

- Gingerbread Man: I hope everything is back to normal when I get back...
- Gingerbread Man Neutral Figure: I'm glad you stopped by.
- Gingerbread Man: Family gatherings are a great excuse to relax

)
- Gingerbread Man: Things have gone crazy in Carcassonne.
- Gingerbread Man Neutral Figure: I heard... The big city can be overwhelming...
- Gingerbread Man Neutral Figure: Life is much easier in the Winter Edition.
- Gingerbread Man: You cannot complain. Now you even have a river...
- Gingerbread Man Neutral Figure: Yeah! That's awesome... but we still have no rules for the extra animal tiles.
- Gingerbread Man: Yeah! That's a bummer...

- Gingerbread Man Neutral Figure: Come on! Cheer up and let's have some fun!

Question #16: The Gingerbread Man places this tile and has two questions for you:
1) How many points does each player score? (0-5 points)
2) Where does the Gingerbread Man neutral figure on the tile goes to after the scoring? (0-1 points)
a) It stays where it is.
b) It moves to the city segment on the tile just placed because it is a gingerbread man tile.
c) It moves to the city segment on the tile just placed because it is an uncompleted city.
d) It is removed from the board until the next gingerbread man tile is placed.

I knew it!, that someday there must come a question with Gingerbread Man

Meepledrone · « **Reply #86 on:** December 17, 2021, 02:58:30 PM »

- Snowman: I've been hearing screams all day long...
- The Grinch: Yes!

- Snowman: ...And it wasn't you...
- Snowman: How can you be so calm?
- The Grinch: You know... It's like listening to music...
- Snowman:

- Snowman: But there are meeples suffering in there...
- The Grinch: They had it coming it... Hidding C1 tiles... Complaining about my silky manners...
- Snowman: WHAT?

- The Grinch: I knew you'd be shocked too..
- Snowman: What tiles? WHAT TILES?
- The Grinch: The C1 Spiel tiles... you know...
- Snowman: Holy scorings!!! We are doomed!

Question #17: The Snowman places this tile on Yellow's behalf. Yellow completed the acrobat pyramid in a previous turn and the player wants to score it now. The big top has to be scored before moving to the tile just placed too. How many points does each player score?

Notes:
- This is a scoring during the game and the game goes on. There is no after-the-game scoring involved.
