What's your favorite Monopoly game piece? I always go straight for the racecar. How cool would it be to have a little NSX game piece?? :biggrin:

Parker Bros are you listening??!!! Huge market opportunity here. :tongue:

I am always the car. I am also a bit of a Monopoly buff and own many versions of the Monopoly game.
 
I play Monopoly for a living... :biggrin:

VVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVV
 
I love the game, but haven't played in years. I've always wanted one of those cool collectors editions of Monopoly. Seriously, a little NSX game piece would be the coolest thing ever!

There are so many versions of the game it is crazy. I love the dotcom version, very funny. There is also an anti monopoly version too. The hoodopoly version in LOL funny.

I have played the game monopoly hundreds of times and have lost just twice.:smile: Many people won't play with me anymore.:frown:

So what's your strategy Steve? Do you bulk up and invest quickly, or do you hang onto your cash and hope the others overinvest? Or do you just bring your own special dice? :biggrin:

There is no value to cash in the game IMO. I will give you all the cash and I get all the property, undeveloped, and a few hours later I will win.

One of my favorite strategies is to buy up the cheap property, deep purples and light blues and one of the sets on the 100/house side of the board, orange or purple, that no one else wants. Then put 4 houses on each property. This leaves no houses in the bank for anyone else to buy and over time everyone else will go bankrupt. This is rare that I end up with the right properties to play a game this way but when I do it pisses off the other players. I especially love the "well you can't pay the rent' I will just have to take some of your property for the rent payment." Then come my turn I put hotels on the cheap property, put the houses on the property I took for rent, and crush the other players even quicker. :biggrin:

Wait a sec, I was just talking about the GAME! hehe No wonder no one will play with you up in NY. Bad Landlord! :biggrin: :biggrin:
 
I dunno steve, it's not like there's a ton of strategy in monopoly, other than trying to use up the houses like you mentioned (there are 32 houses though, so that doesn't happen often). The most important thing is BUY EVERYTHING YOU LAND ON (except waterworks, electric company and I'm not a big fan of the railroads unless you have the extra cash). If I land on an available property I can't afford, I'll mortgage my other properties to buy it, it's usually early enough in the game at that point that you can't get into too much trouble. If all the property is sold and nobody has a monopoly and you're not playing against an idiot, you might as well start over. Oh, and Illinois Ave is the square landed on the most out of any square in the game, always good to have a monopoly on reds.

Bob, Off the subject but how did you make out with CHP Friday? Gil

well, we had just gotten on the freeway towards vegas from baker and the guy ahead of me (here on prime, but in a Legend, can't remember his name) slowed down and got over, so I thought he was going to let me pass. As soon as I started to pass he rolled down his window and pointed back and yelled "cop". I knew I didn't have plates on the car (long story), so I thought I might try and get way ahead of everybody in hopes that he would pull over somebody else (not in our group) before he saw me. When I started to pull away EVERYBODY flashed their lights at me, so I slowed back down... about 2 min later here comes "5 oh" in the truck lane (far right). We were in the slow lane, ALL of us doing 65 at the time. He pulled up next to me, I looked over and nodded, he pulled ahead, then pulled back, then pulled up again and got on his horn and asked "Is that a new Ferrari?" :rolleyes: , I shook my head, then he signaled for me to pull over. He was actually VERY cool about it all. He said first of all, we stuck out like a sore thumb because we were in such a large group. Second, I stuck out in the group because my "Ferrari" was bright blue, and third, I stuck out even more with no plates. So he said I was asking to get pulled over. I explained everything, and he said he was just checking cause they get alot of stolen cars through there, we chit-chatted a little bit, then he sent me on my way without even so much as running my license. It also helped that I still have my wallet from when I was a cop, so when he asked for my insurance, I had to retrieve it from under my "flat-badge" :biggrin:
