I also got the advent package today  In fact, the postman came much earlier but my husband intercepted the package and only gave it to me today for St. Nicholas   The meeple flags for scoring came nicely packaged in small envelopes. Its really wood!! For some of them you need to remove the protective film... but see for yourself

We not only have tiles with different shades of grey color at the back or slightly more rounded edges but some of us (me included) also play with fan made expansions where we make our own tiles - and you can see that!
The solution we found is to use the tower from the tower expansion where you put all tiles and then there is only the choice to take left or right. The tower has to be placed in a way that the player taking the next tile cannot see the tiles... - you are in front but you grab behind (hope I can make myself understandable...).

I have tried to add the new signposts expansion but in the checkout it is treated as if it needed a whole package for itself instead of sending it as a letter 
Anyone is having the same issue?
I just checked and yes, freight costs directly go to the next level...

Does everyone else assume like I do that the date has a typo?
It says "diesmal am 29.12.2021" at the link below. Surely the advent event starts 29.11.2021 not 29.12.2021.
Here. They exactly said. New mini

Hi kothmann, nice to see that the test for the "Big Highwayman" also got you inspired for tactical Tuesday.  I'd go for Option C. Pink is leading and not really in need of meeples currently compared to the other players. I really like option A with farmer in upper left field but I'd try my chance and wait for a CRRR tile for that... because I do not want to give 6 points to black. Go Pink!!  (I always play pink )

Hi kothmann, happy to see that you had great fun with Carcassonne at Thanksgiving! Thanks for sharing your game! Proportionally scoring sounds like a nice variant to me (I had not heard of before). We will definitely try!! Keep up the fun!

Die Geschenke arrived from eBay yesterday afternoon (in a little custom mailer that the seller made)!
Perfect timing for Thanksgiving games...
congratulations !! When you buy Carcassonne do you have to order in Germany or do you buy in the US? And did you already play with them? Did you like it?

Well. We started with C2 basic game and C1 sheep's and hills. I didn't know that it different version of design. Expansion with different design was something I expected. Than we bought several expansions mix of C1/C2 also without knowledge that exists different versions.
But we realized that there is C2 with sheds and gardens. Abbot is very powerfull meeple so we make decision to sell C1 expansions by C2 price as replacement and switch to C2.
Currently only C1 (witch have C2 replacement):we have is Exp 2 T&B and Mini 1-7
hi, thanks for your reply  its interesting because it was also the abbot who brought us to buy the C2 base game although we already had the C1 one. Long before that I just tried to get the abbot meeple and we played C1 with abbot but without gardens. Then we discovered the iOS App and there we played the abbot with gardens very often so then ...... well we had to get the gardens, too.

Bit late to the party, but I actually don't care about CI vs CII editions (I don't care *anymore* I must add  )
Thats why I don't have a CI and CII completionism. If I've got an expansion in 1 version, I am ot going to buy the other.
But it's mostly because I collect especially to play each expansion.
So I will use my Darmstadt and other stuff in games (but sleeved ofcourse, don't want them damaged).
But we just mix whatever we like together and in that matter create a different game every time we play
Better late than never  thanks for your reply!! This is what we do also except that we do not collect anything. We only buy the ones we like fullstop. So no Katapult but many great fan expansions. Family Feud is our most favorite!!!

I play with 2nd edition but mix in sets that are only available for 1st edition such as the Wheel of Fortune or Catapult

Yes, you can occupy the same monastery or garden several times with an abbot. This means you can remove and score the abbot several times and then score the feature once it is complete.
Scoring an abbot is similar to scoring a monastery/garden at the end of the game, but it is not the same.
The abbot does not receive any bonuses a completed monastery or garden would receive when scoring it (vineyardd for monasteries, fairy 3-point bonus...).
Hope this helps. In my previous answer I was focusing on when you can occupy multiple times a feature (a monastery or garden) and covering the edge case dealing with the magic portal/flying machine tile completing the feature you "would like" to occupy but not possible.
Thank you! This helped - now it's cristal clear

One more time: I have to ask another question! If an Abbot was removed from a garden or Monastery when it was surrounded by less than 8 tile, the garden or Monastery will be scored for less than 9 points, but the feature is not complete! If the last surrounding tile has not been placed yet, can the Magic Portal send another Abbot the same incomplete garden or Monastery? Or a meeple back to the incomplete Monastery?
Very good question! I have always been asking myself the same!
If it's considered incomplete then all works fine,
if it's considered complete then you need some kind or marker to remember that this one has already been scored...
Looking forward to the answer myself, thanks for asking!!
Once you place a tile that completes a feature, the feature is considered complete at the end of 1. Placing a tile. Therefore if a magic portal or a flying machine tile completes a feature, you will not be allowed to occupy the feature just completed with the magic portal or flying machine on the tile.
You can see this in the following clarifications:

Thanks for the reply! I seem to be blind or today is not my day or I do not understand your reply correctly but I cannot see the answer to our question in your links...  May I re-formulate the question: I want to send an abbot/meeple through the magic portal. Can it land on a monastery that is not completed but has been partially scored previously by an abbot (abbot moved away and scored = special move of abbot)?
