Q6:In October, one of our forum members announced that he would be representing Hungary at the Carcassonne world championships despite finishing behind two other competitors at their national championship. Who was this?
Q7:Although the first couple of prototype sets were available to look at in 2016, it wasn't until this year that the exclusive, limited-edition Carcassonne book-boxes were available through the Cundco store. The hefty price tag proved somewhat prohibitive for many of us, but who was the first forum member proud enough to show one of these beauties off via the photos he posted of his own set in November?
Q8:After experiencing some lengthy delays, the final game of the 2017 World Cup of Carcassonne Central was completed in May this year. Dan "the magnificent" isthirty was defeated by 224 points against 206, but who was the eventual winner of this 163-tile, 7-expansion epic clash?
Q9:Back in October, in an act of extraordinary self-sacrifice and generosity, one of our humble forum members was kind enough to offer us for sale a set of FOUR Carcassonne tiles AND a coaster for a mere 125 Euros. Who was this?
Q10:Who made a big announcement on the forums in October, by posting an image of two phantom cases and a red meeple standing on a Carcassonne landscape?
Q11:We first heard about a new expansion - the Fruit Bearing Trees - back in March and spent a while discussing the various pros and cons of its release amongst other things (such as Cundco's spare parts service and Decar's Uncle's 80 pots of Quince Jam). One eagle-eyed forum member however spotted two of Monty Python's Knights who say "Ni" hiding in a bush on one of the tiles. Who was this?
Q12:With 2574 replies and over 490 thousand views, our "I love the postman" thread is still going strong after more than four years! Back in August, one forum member in particular was especially pleased to see his postman after he won a prize draw at a boardgame event and had four games including 13 Clues, Flagdash, Jorvik and Legendary Inventors delivered to him. Who was this?
Q13:Which forum member expressed their excitement at the prospect of attending the Carcassonne "Scottish Championships" in September, but then fell at the first hurdle when they realised they would be in Spain at the time of the competition?
Q14:It already feels like a long time ago, but of all the forum members who had a birthday in February only one of them can say that Decar used his 4600th post to wish him a happy birthday. Who was this?
Thanks for all the birthday greeting guys! You have succeeded in making a happy man very old!
Q15:In September I proposed the idea of a collaborative game of Carcassonne where we as a community played a game from the position of one single player against three AI opponents. Thus providing opportunities to share our thoughts, strategies and insights between us as part of the ensuing discussion that evolved as the game progressed. Whilst the idea didn't take off as well as I'd hoped it might, the game is still in play on my iPad so we might come back to it in the new year and pick up where we left off. Anyway, it's not something I would normally have considered, but who was the first to suggest getting an early farmer down once the game was underway?
Q16:The UK Carcassonne championships were held in June this year. Despite ranking 17th after the first three rounds of competition, I qualified for the knockout stage as the lowest-seeded player before progressing as far as the semi-final where I was knocked out by another member of Carcassonne Central: JackFace! However, I wasn't the only CarcC member who Jack sent home without a trophy. Who was the other?
