1) How many points does each player score?
2) Who gets the teacher from the school?
--- End quote ---
Answer #17: Red completes one road ending at the school. This road contains two tunnels (one marked with red tunnel tokens and another one with yellow tunnel tokens). This road has 7 tiles (Note: the tile on the center right with three tunnels tokens is only counted once). Check the following image where the roads occupied by Red and Yellow:
You can also see in the image above that the road occupied by Yellow is not completed. The grey tunnel tokens connect two road segments but the one on the center right is open ended. So Yellow scores no points.
Therefore Red scores 7 points (7 tiles x 1 point per tile). Since Red completes the road connected to the school, Red will receive the teacher, but the teacher bonus is not applicable until the next feature is scored.
Bottomline:
1) Red scores 7 points.
Yellow scores no points
2) Red receives the teacher.

1) How many points does the player score during this turn if playing with the Variant Rules for Little Buildings?
2) Does the Witch stay on the road after scoring?
3) Can the Dragon eat the Witch if landing on the same tile?

Answer #18: Red completes a road with the Witch and two little buildings. Since we are applying the Variant Rules for Little Buildings, the shed is worth 1 point and the tower is worth 3 points. As indicated in the clarifications for Little Buildings, their points are applied after the Witch.
The road is initially worth 5 points (5 tiles x 1 point per tile), but the Witch halves these points (rounding them up), so the road is worth 3 points (5 points / 2 rounded up). The Little Building points will be applied on top of these points. So the road is worth 7 points (3 points for the feature itself + 1 point for the shed + 3 points for the tower).
Additionally, the Fairy assigned to the Red Meeple, so it will provide the following extra points:
* 1 bonus point at the beginning of Red's turn.
* 3 bonus points for its presence in the completed road.
Bottomline:
The answer to the questions is as follows:
1) Red scores 11 points (1 point for the Fairy at the beginning of the player's turn + 7 points for the road + 3 points for the Fairy scoring bonus).
2) No, the Witch will be removed from the road and placed aside until a player placing a new tile with a magic symbol decides to place the Witch on an uncompleted road or city again.
3) Yes, the Dragon will eat the Witch if placed on the same tile.

--- End quote ---
Answer #19: Red completes a road occupied by Blue and a city occupied by Red. Note that the other meeples within the walls of the city are not actually placed in the city:
* The Blue Meeple is placed on a monastery within the city, so the meeple is a monk, not a knight in the city.
* The Yellow Meeple is on top of a tower so it is not a knight in the city either. The large bridge over the city does not split it into two.
Red will score 4 points for the abbot (1 point for the monastery tile + (3 adjacent tiles x 1 point) = 1 + 3 points). The Pilgrimage Route scoring tile does not affect the scoring of an abbot, just the scoring of completed monastic buildings.
Blue will score 4 points for the road affected by the Poverty scoring tile ( (7 tiles x 1 point per tile) - 3 penalty points for the scoring tile = 7 points - 3 points).
Red will score 14 points for the city ( (6 tiles + 1 coat of arms) x 2 points = 7 x 2 points). The Citizen's Jury scoring tile does not affect the scoring the city in this case, since the only meeple in the city is from Red.
Bottomline:
* Blue will score 4 points.
* Red will score 18 points (4 points for the abbot + 14 points for the city).
* Yellow will score no points.
