28.06.26 Entoyment Carcassonne Store Championship

Start Time: 10am 

Pairing System: Random game 1, Swiss after round 1.

Join us for our first Carcassonne Store Championship.

Our event will be held in a causal manner but will follow some of the advised tournament rules. 

Rules of the Carcassonne Games - Explanations / Clarifications:
All games are played with the basic Carcassonne game only. The Farmer’s value is calculated like this: for every meadow the number of farmers is calculated and a player with the most farmers receives 3 points for every city at that meadow. Note that every player can get the points for one city in this manner more than one time!

Clarification for the Game Play:
During your opponent's turn you may choose and look at your next tile. But beware: the new tile has to be at anytime above the tabletop, so it is clear which one you've chosen. Make sure, you don't mistake your chosen one with another! You may look at it (secretly), but at the beginning of your turn before you add it to the "board", let your opponent have a look at it.

When placing a tile and scoring points with it you always have to place a meeple from your supply prior to counting the points. This ensures you show your opponent that you have a meeple available. You have to keep the meeple(s) in your supply visible at all times so it's not allowed to hold them in the hands or hide them in any way.

In case of a timeout both players calculate their points right at the moment the timeout happens. It is possible that the loosing player (the one running out of time) has more points than the winning player. Important: you have to note "timeout" on the calculation sheet!

General Rules:
You have to count the tiles each time before a new game starts to make sure they are all there because in the past it has happened that tiles accidently dropped in the breaks between the games.

You have to play with the meeples that are provided at your table. The none starting player has the choice of colour. Only if both players agree you are allowed to play with your own meeples.

It's not allowed to make any private notes during the game (like counting tiles on a sheet of paper).
