In Carcassonne, does the Bazaar in the farm play and count like a cloister in the farm? What about on the road and in a city? We understand how to initiate the auctions but are not sure how to treat the Bazaar itself and for scoring purposes. We assume it completes or ends a road.

Yes,

Per the Carcassonne Annotated Rules, the Bazaar ends a road, although it is not directly stated.

It seems clear that a bazaar ends a road in the same way as a crossing or bushes

The Bazaar itself is not a feature that a meeple can be put on. It does not count as a cloister. It doesn't change farm or city scoring.

What about the first question? Does the bazaar play like a cloister in that a follower (meeple) can be placed on the bazaar? – Jon Jan 4 '12 at 19:08
@jon - did I answer your question? I'm not certain I understand what you were looking for there. – Pat Ludwig♦ Jan 4 '12 at 20:19
OK, I appologize and now I see the answer above. This is the first time using this site and I missed that answer, thanks! – Jon Jan 5 '12 at 5:22
@Jon - no worries, I did edit the answer to add the last paragraph. – Pat Ludwig♦ Jan 5 '12 at 5:23
We just received the tower and the count should be here today...we may be crazy, but we want to play the game with most or all the expansions...it took us 3 hours with the expansions I have todate. – Jon Jan 6 '12 at 15:15
