Detailed description

• Please copy/paste the error message you see on your screen, if applicable.
On the new expansion, the rules PDF says 'When a feature (city, road, cloister, or farm) with the fairy is scored, the player whose follower stands on the tile with the fairy scores 3 points for standing there'.
However, when my opponent finished off a road that I was on and had the fairy on, they got the 3 points, not me. -
• Please explain what you wanted to do, what you did and what happened
Yes it will be. I cannot see the move number but it is the only time that 3 fairy pints were scored. The game got abandoned.

Report history
boardgamearena.com/gamereview?table=102821321
Move 55 - Fairy gave 3 point other player
bananasplay scores 14 point(s)
Manimal3010 completes a city
Manimal3010 receives 1 Goods from the city
Manimal3010 gets 3 bonus points from the fairy
Manimal3010 places a tile
Now, despite the log's clearly showing who received the fairy points, when I replay last moves, I notice the on-screen graphic showing +3 in my colour on the tile with the fairy (alongside all the +2 and +4 for the various city tiles). Moreover, my score went from 67 to 80 during my opponent's turn: +3 for the fairy and +14 for the city.
So, this appears to me not to be a bug with how points are awarded, but simply an error in the log, based on whoever's turn it is when the feature is completed.
I must also note how strange it is that a bug marked "confirmed" would be left unaddressed for so long: first report in July of 2020, and a follow-up later that day and one in August, and no further action whatsoever through January 2022. :-/
