Little Buildings doesn't really have tiles, so a tile-shaped box doesn't make a lot of sense. The building tokens have no watermark, but because it's from Spielbox I used the Spielbox pentagon symbol.

I was hoping to do one per day, but the past few days have been very busy. I'll do my best to get another one done tonight (Little Buildings).

On March 30th, 2013, premium YouTube channel Geek & Sundry (The Guild, TableTop, Written By A Kid) asks all of our fans to go to their friendly local game store, community center, or host an event at home and play more games. International TableTop Day is a reminder to spend more time and strengthen the bonds with the people who matter most, our friends and family, by playing games together. Tabletop gaming promotes many positive social and cognitive benefits like increased communication, team work, planning, and is an excellent stress relieving activity for all ages. International TableTop Day also represents the one year anniversary of the launch of the hit show TableTop, hosted by Wil Wheaton (Star Trek, Big Bang Theory, Leverage). TableTop has been a well-reported boon to the international gaming community, not only creating whole new generations of tabletop gamers, but also providing a rising tide that supports many game stores and publishers. TableTop fans have sent us thousands of fan mail responses telling us about how TableTop has rekindled their friendship, brought families together, helped hospital patients find strength to carry on, and even provided peace for grieving families. TableTop has become much more than a show, it has become a shining light for the whole international gaming community. And we want to give back to our fans in a very special way! International TableTop Day is a celebration for all the fans of tabletop gaming. A single day where the whole world is brought together in a common purpose of spending time together and having fun. We hope you find the resources you need -- to connect new fans to experienced group organizers, retailers with their community, and publishers with the international community -- all in one place. The interactive map hosts all of the game days and parties worldwide. If you don't see an event near you, simply follow the free submission process to create and host your own TableTop Day event that we will promote for you. Download all the free content and collect all the exclusive promotional items made specifically to commemorate this event. All we ask in return is that you share your experience with us by using the social media hashtag #tabletopday on all your posts, pictures, stories, and videos. This way, we can all share in the fun wordwide. Let's for one day, all come together, put down our worries and play more games. http://www.tabletopday.com

That's a lot of work; I'm hoping that everyone can pitch in a little to accomplish that.

I can add some fields for that, but I think two us enough. Don't need yes/no fields.

Your phone number is required for customs purposes. Last time I ordered from Cundco, I did receive a phone call from the customs broker asking for my credit card number so that they could process the brokerage fees. This can be handy if paying cash on delivery is inconvenient for you. The best is when a company collects brokerage when you place the order and then refunds any excess back to you. Failing that, I prefer cash on delivery only because I don't like giving my credit card number over the phone.

Totally thought I'd enabled the calendar, but I just noticed there's a "Save" button at the bottom of that screen. Calendar is enabled now.

I saw Dixit on TableTop and it doesn't interest me.
Wish I could say that games have been hitting my table, but as per usual they just sit on my shelf.

I didn't address the first one because kettlefish answered it already. Besides what she quoted, we've also had confirmations from questions to HiG that the castle is a separate feature from the tiles underneath.

I've also had good experience with Cundco each time.

What the guys at BGG are describing is called the Monty Hall problem. You can read more about it on Wikipedia if you want to know why.
The probability doesn't change, but the guy drawing early could still get the tile you would have chosen. I think the decision about when to draw should be consistent. Either everybody draws early, or nobody draws early. Unless you allow players to look at the tile before their turn, there is no need to draw early.

Scoring is triggered by completion. First you complete the cloister. Second you score it. Both players score at the same time even though you might move their meeples one after the other.

Question 2:
When playing with the Count of Carcassonne extension, you can put a Meeple in the City of Carcassonne when you close something and cause someone else to score and that you do not score. Our argument was after I closed a Cloister for my buddy, I didn't score on that, but I had a Castle that did scoop the same 9 points because one of my 6 tiles was touching it. Because I made points "after" the structure was closed, we weren't 100% sure how we should handle it. In the end we both agreed that I scored and therefore shouldn't be allowed to move a Meeple to the City, but I would like a confirmation of such.
All points are scored after a feature is completed. Because the placement of tile caused you to score points, you can't deploy a follower from the City of Carcassonne.

The river works fine with the Count expansion, especially when used with the Games Quarterly expansion. Connect the spring with the road from GQ11 to one of the roads from the City and run the river away from the city. Your method of pre-placing tiles along the edge should also work splendidly. I tried to build a moat once, but didn't have enough river tiles.
