I was reviewing your interesting questions and my answer to them differ from the one provided above ( @NGC 54, please check my comments below). -Picture 1: can the tile bottom left be placed? The only tile next to it is a half tile, and this position would place it next to the empty half space.
We considered that this is allowed, since the space next to it is considered occupied by a tile, but we weren't sure.
In this case, the placement should not be allowed. Revisiting the Halflings rules, you may read: The half-sized tiles are placed according to the rules of the Carcassonne base game, meaning that at least one side of your tile has to continue the landscape of one or more existing tiles. When placing a tile next to a Halfling, the reciprocal rule should be applied: a tile may only be placed next to a short side of a Halfling tile, never next to a triangular space (if not next to any other tile edge). The later would be similar to a corner-to-corner invalid placement.
-Picture 2: pink places the half tile to complete her city. Does it limit the Mist?
We considered it didn't.
In this case, the triangular gap should not be considered as limiting the mist, since the placement of a second Halfling tile filling the triangular gap would limit the mist at the same edge for a second time. This would be awkward, so only and edge-to-edge placement may limit or extend the mist.

It is not explicitly clarified for the Knock Out token, but the Seduction token and the Target Hurling token had footnotes that state the following about other figures than meeples (followers in C1): https://wikicarpedia.com/car/The_Catapult_(1st_edition)#cite_note-original-6Any figures or tokens moved or knocked over by the token should be returned to their original position before proceeding with this action. By extension, the same action should apply to special or neutral figures affected by the Knock Out token. Therefore, the ghost should be placed as it was if no chain reaction affected the meeple it was assigned to.

Thank you for the report. I will have to keep an eye on the boardgame version.  I have a couple of themed versions of Fluxx: Oz and Wonderland, which I love. I know what you mean...  Regarding the Pyramid games, @dronedrone might help us with this matter. I suspect he may have tried them. Hope he can enlighten us.

You may see in the rules that inns are explained in road scorings and cathedrals in road scorings. It is never mentioned that an inn affects a city.
Inns only affect the road they are on. Note that an inn may affect 1 or 2 road segments but no other features on the tile.
Cathedrals only affect the city they are in. There should be no ambiguity in this case, since cathedral tiles only have a city segment.

This missing piece of information was missing from the Turn Sequence in BB6 and BB7, as we could check with @kettlefish , one of the poofreaders for BB6. The team working on BB7 wasn't the same as for BB6 and missed this information again. We hope it will be corrected some day, if we are lucky.

Regarding La Porxada, source of many discussions, it became notorious as it was presented in an event and given to the players participating in the Carcassonne games. The rules are not very clear and they contain some ambiguities and contradictions. We had to consult the creator, Oriol Comas i Coma, to solve these issues for WICA. https://wikicarpedia.com/car/La_Porxada_(1st_edition)Note that Oriol was the organizer of the event, he never worked at Devir. It would have been grat if Devir could have produced the mini officially. But this was never the case.

The Russian tiles were official tiles by Hobby World, the Russian publisher. They were released for national events, and some of them even sold on their online store. Their quality is a bit blow par... They can be scratched very easily, and the initial print run had the front was printed on the wrong side of the tile. They are a rare find and super expensive compared with other tiles. Finding a set without white scrathes is even rarer.
La Poxada tile was actually a sticker on a C1 tile. No official release therefore, and it was a fan tile for an event. There is some kind of mystic aura around this tile because KJW signed some of them while visiting the event, but they are as unofficial as they can be.
Regarding the Cacassonne.cat, the Spanish Promos, the Hugarian Promos, the Cacassonne Central promos, etc., they are all unofficial tiles. Some of these tiles were printed on blank tiles but they are just fan-made expansions. I have some fan-made promo tiles signed by KJW and they are not semi-official or anything because of that.
Hope this hleps.
