Congrats Paloi Sciurala!   Also shout out to Turkino for scoring 73 points with only 9 ok answers  :o.  That is most impressive.  Liambass took the least amount of time as the other high scorers.   :(y)

I had fun, though it is a bit depressing knowing that I can never be a Carcassonne judge / rules analyst. 

Thanks again Meepledrone.

The 25th anniversary edition should come out next year sometime.   I know you are talking about 2025, but its still something people should keep in mind before going overboard this year.

They reprinted Hunters and Gatherers.  Any chance that the Scout expansion gets a reprint?

Sweet 3 points!  I have already exceeded my score from last year.   :(y)

Thanks again Meepledrone

Question #26.11: The Panda places this tile on Red's behalf. The player has the following questions:
a) Did everyone have a wonderful holiday? (0 points)
b) Did everyone remember to thank Meepledrone for creating a wonderful quiz? (0.000001 point)
c) Can sheep catch the bubonic plague? (just for fun)

Notes:
* This is a mid-game scenario
* Each player has 1 Guinea pig meeple
* The Danisthirty tile is played with the advanced rules

I doubt I did well on that last question, but it was fun seeing some of these expansions I haven't looked at before.   If I could print my own tiles, I think the one with the alternative coat of arms is the most interesting.

No matter the dragon, the tower, the catapults, the ghosts, the plague, the peasant revolts, or the bathhouses, you can always keep collecting tolls!

Ah we found the politician  :))

Can you collect tolls from peasants during a revolt?  They are sort of a group of travelers.  Same with the folks holding up the 20th anniversary flag. 

Tolls should be free during the holiday.  My state does it during Memorial Day and Labor Day (when nobody needs the toll roads)

I feel as though building a bridge over a world heritage site should be illegal...   :(n)

Everyone else: Question 5 is really difficult and I think The Grinch made a mistake.

Me: What is an abbot?  ???

My Advent order made it across the pond.  The Spring and Autumn tiles are amazing, so much so that I may have to buy the base game in the new art.   

I don't like the looks of the Angkor Wat tile, but the other Wonders are fine.  Like the previous version, they don't really fit anywhere and I don't have a good storage solution for them.  Speaking of storage solutions, the 3D starting box/tile isn't it  :(n)

South Seas is by far my favorite.  Amazonia is ok.  I didn't particularly care for The Discovery, Hill & Dale, or Safari.  I haven't played the others.

I only bought 1 set and I am glad I did.  There are a couple flags that can only be read from one side.

I made a tray for them. There’s a thread in the Crafting forum.

Great idea!  Thanks

The advent stuff has finally made it across the pond  :). I didn't realize that the Wonders of Humanity tiles don't really fit in any of the expansion boxes nor does it fit in my wooden case.  Anyone have an idea of how to store these outside of using the base game box?

I thought about buying a C2 or C3 base game to play with the numerous expansions that aren't available in C1.  I still haven't done it even though mixing stuff together is an eyesore.  Maybe I will pick one up if it goes super cheap.
