Congratulation, I bet that was fun! I am curious, what version of the game did they use for the tournament?

Also, how big where these tiles? Looks so much fun

C2 version for the championship
for the giant Carcassonne it seems to me that the dimension is 0.40 x 0.40

Hmm... that's roughly 10 times the size of normal tiles if I'm doing the math correctly.

Nice event and nice pictures, oldbonz  :(y)
Wish I have had the chance to travel to Carcassonne.

Seems to me, that it is this "Giant Carcassonne" version:

So, the size ist 40x40 cm

Did they add a second table to expand the play area? I thought the boundaries of the table were sacred in official tournaments (they surely are in my home  ;D )
