Carcassonne is on the bottom. Full path to it:
Are you playing with children? - NO
Play for more than two hours? - NO
Are you a huge nerd? - NO
Do you think everyone should just get along? - NO
Do you like to gamble? - NO
Are you over 50 years old? - NO
Party game? - NO
Are you a know it all? - NO
Get straight A's? - NO
Do you have a train fetish? - NO
Simple rules? - NO
Constant hard choices? - NO
Card/deck based game? - NO
Do you like to plan your strategy before your turn? - NO
Defined turns or no down-time? - TURNS

Still I disagree with some statements. For example, I like to plan my strategy in every turn

Mega-carcassonne should have a separate entry. It would be in an entirely different place in the chart.

IMO It's not very good!

I followed a different path, one where I would be playing with kids and it suggested Sorry!

Carcassonne is great to play with kids. Kids pick it up faster than us oldies!

I would never end up at carcassonne also.. even when im trying to answer the questions in such a way that i think they end up at carcassonne

I mean, carcassonne is sometimes a gamble game, where you need a strategy with some hard decisions..
