Some great nominations everyone!  Thanks for taking part.  I can't believe we've got 98 individual games already! 

It's quite incredible, and it's also interesting to see the diversity of games that Carcassonne fans love.

I've updated the nominations at the top of the thread, feel free to give it a read and nominate anything you think is missing!

I just remembered two more than I wasn't able to bring with me to New Zealand:

– Memoir '44
– Small World

(Days of Wonder represent!)

Here are mine additional nominates:
Power Grid (any map and/or expansion)
Ticket to Ride (any map and/or expansion). I understand you've listed three maps of TTR as separate games, but I'm a lumper as opposed to splitter. It's just a personal taste, but may I overwhelm the list with every map and expansion I know of >:D?
Bang! (any expansion, but no spin-offs)
Saboteur with the expansion. Geologist is my favourite role in the game, and I happen to a geologist in my real life. Well, not really a traditional geologist, but close enough.
6 nimmt!
No Thanks
Coup with the expansion

110 Games already!  Thanks for the most recent round of favourites - I've updated the list accordingly.

Great idea for a poll/ series of polls Decar! +1 merit from me... :(y)

There are only a couple of games that I enjoy which aren't already on the list. But I do have a couple to add:

- Dice City
- Flip City
- Glüx
- Monopoly Deal (a card game version of Monopoly which is much more fun and takes a fraction of the time)
- Quadropolis (playing this a lot at the moment)
- Tsuro (the classic version - I prefer this to the "of the seas" version despite obvious similarities)
- Zombies!!! (100+ games and no zombies? what's the matter with you people?)
- Zombie Fluxx

Looking forward to seeing how the voting works out!

It's a bizarre selection from a bizarre man.

Just kidding thirsty, you are beloved by handfuls of people.  ;) :(y)

It just occurred to me. Does Ticket to Ride: The Card Game qualify for the list?

Can not believe I forgot this in my previous list. A great game, but finding the promos
and/or expansions to this seems to be even harder than Carcassonne!
