    When I play Monopoly, I'm always both the banker and realtor. For some strange reason, I usually end up winning.

    Hold up... hoOoOold up...! I got your back, Miguel... :eek:
    Perhaps you should learn to type "be" and "sayin" correctly and be saying "my typing skills suck." :p

    I hear some of you losers say to go for the "light blues" or the "oranges" or the "yellows" :rolleyes: ... WTF, a-holes? Call them the way they're named! It's Oriental Place or Vermont Connecticut Avenue, or if orange New York, Tennessee, or St. James Avenue or if it's a yellow, it's Marvin Gardens, Ventnor or Atlantic Avenues... a-holes .

    I had a hankering to play Monopoly the other night, and I was disappointed to find out that it's no longer free online! I used to play it over at yahoo.games.com or games.com, but it appears that you have to pay now.

    Talk about Monopoly...

    I can't believe I'm backing up Swoly here, but it is Ventnor.

    Believe me, I've played Monopoly hundreds of times growing up.

    My success rate is astounding, I rarely lose because my negotiation skills are top notch and I always get what I want. I refuse to reveal all my secrets though, Mig played me pretty well he just got a bit unlucky with his Boardwalk/Park Place ventures.

    Maybe it's for fear of being pwned, but if I'm going to call someone out like that I would at least Google it. And yes, it's Ventnor as moes stated.

    Good ole' Monotony

    I actually bought a copy to have something to do while the power was out, my copy had debit cards instead of cash which is cool once you get the hang of it.

    You always buy Boardwalk or Park Place when you land on them, but look out for the Railroads, the cheap stuff that you can buy hotels on soon and get at least one complete set property as early as possible.

    Lots of luck in that game though.

    :( But I said it first... ;)

    I'm framing this one for the annals of history:
    What's this "DEBIT CARD" crap about? Monopoly is so cool 'cuz you don't need batteries and the rules are the same all the time, and you learn MATH...

    I hate the fact that, when I go to someone else's house and I tell them a certain rule exists, they say "... but we've been playing it like this all the time and this is how we play it here... :eek: " Oh, yeah? Do you let kids smoke and drink, too? :rolleyes:

    When I saw Swoly posted in this thread, I said to myself, "he's probably one of those jerks [no offense] who insist on playing by the official rules!" Lo and behold. By the way, why would we take Monopoly advice from someone who can't beat his children at the game? :p

    Yeah, our house rules had one game going forever. But, eventually the bubble popped and we found out our credit swaps were just worthless paper and in the end everybody lost.
