Wish I was loving the postman. My Cundco order has been sitting awaiting departure in Germany since the 2nd of December.

Yeah, I got notified on 10 December that it was "awaiting information" (which, for the record, WAS included on the original order, as my receipt attests). Despite two replies, I haven't heard anything. I know they've been closed for the past three weeks, but I really hope they get on it soon and that my Spiel '21 tile is in the parcel.

Picked this up from the GeekMarket at BGG.   8)

I REALLY love the tile mix in this set.  Second favorite single box, right behind Limited Edition.

Once I get Besiegers >:D, my C1 collection is will be (incomplete but) finished.

And (pie-crust promise) I'm not starting on C2...

I just had a bit of a laugh, as I too am only into C1 Carcassonne, and I thought after reading your post about how much you love wheel of fortune and that your collection is nearly complete that i'd look at your profile and see what your collection consisted of... First thing I laid my eyes on was "Wheel Of Fortune... Not Interested"  :))

Oh, thanks for the reminder.  Updated now.  Reminded me that I would also like to have Crop Circles I and Wind Roses I, but I’m not going to go looking for those.

Also I didn’t see “Carcassonne für 2”, which I own and think is great, even though C2.   :o

I wish there were “curious”  ???, “want to give away”  :P and “gave away”  categories, to give a more complete picture.

Okay, now back to German ebay for those Belagerer…  >:D

Nice find, I love the WoF too (got it from big box).

A "gave away" category would be great indeed  :yellow-meeple:

I would like to have a Wof in the future myself. I do have the Dutch version, but i do like the Hig or the rgg more.

And indeed A give/gave away Category would be nice.

The Carcassonne Museum is still taking in new additions prior to opening, and the Postman seems to know this.

Got 3 packages in 1 go this morning!


On the left is an Australian base game by Ventura games. They did a similar thing to PixelPark in New Zealand, by taking an RGG box and slapping their own logo on it somewhere. Although this one only has the 1 Ventura logo, and all around the box are RGG logos :P

And a 3rd edition RGG one; i thought i only had the 4th one (which has the text of the Free River brilliantly photoshopped on it), so got this one :)

and underneath is a RGG Big Box 1 :D It differs ever so slightly from the HiG BB1, as the RGG one came with the River, and HiG BB1 didn't

Do you have a list of all versions you own?

And do you have a list of what is available everywhere? Or do you use the list on wikicarpedia? ;D

i do keep an inventory file with everything i have; started doing that fairly recently. It's an organised file (or at least i like to think so), but haven't got it anywhere online. As i'm still tweaking it, it keeps changing and i mainly use if for myself to check if i have or haven't got a spare, or certain edition.

I usually use the Collections&Expansions page on the WICA in combination with the file, to see if i have or haven't got something yet

Please double check your file, in order to find a spare copy of the Essen 2015 tile  ;D  ;D  ;D

You collection covers 99% of it all I presume. ;)

We have to update it soon.

Yes, there's a few things missing from the page ;)

I have also been working on my own offline version of the page, to have a more visual way to mark off what i've been able to get.
For example:


Funnily enough my collection of German boxes is behind a bit, but that will be something to work on in the future

Another item moved from "no interest" to "owns"!  >:D

Played right away after opening, and even 20 tiles is still a great game!  This goes everywhere now...
