There gets to be a lot of tension when the pot in the middle gets huge and everyone is going for it.on the free parking in Monopoly,the way I and my friends/family play is that all taxes(super tax,income tax)payed in the game goes to the center of the board,and all that money collected up so far goes to the guy who lands on free parking. its weird but thats the way I play it. Option 2 is how I interpret the whole RR controversy. Anyone have the millenium edition of Monopoly (the one with the shiny board)? I hate it. The board gives you a headache and the plastic money is a pain to use. We gave up on it and went back to using our old edition that my mom got for her birthday as a teenager. | ||

Great blog! thanks dude. I want to say...Ohio State? some Ohio school I think. Teengirl Fantasy has a remix on that Taragana Pyjarama EP. Pretty awesome artist, but when they opened for Crystal Castles in Philly this year I got the sense that nobody knew who they were, since the crowd was just standing around. ofc I was the drunk idiot telling people to dance btw check out their website, it's rad  | ||

Another interesting interpretation to consider is simply going backwards to the nearest one behind you. This puts you at the "nearest" station from an absolute value standpoint, but has the drawback of being sort of semantically disingenuous with the word "advance." I suppose you could make the case that "advancing" doesn't necessarily have to be in a "forwards" direction, but I dunno, that's kind of stretching it a bit. By the way, have you ever played Ticket to Ride? One of the best board games I've ever played. I was skeptical at first, but what first started out as a board game of immature sexual innuendos turned into a night of delicious garlic breadsticks, compelling gameplay (we seriously played for hours), and of course, immature sexual innuendos. | ||
