Rules:

  1. Be civil and nice.
  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.

Yes that is what the point of Monopoly was.

Yes it is ironic that it was bought out by one of the largest toy companies in the world.

I still love the game. IDK why it feels like an abusive relationship.

The abuse comes from people who don't play by the rules. No property auctions, put tons of money on free parking that goes to whoever lands there, that kind of shit. This is what makes monopoly take hours.

The way my wife and I play is who can cheat the most and get away with it. If your caught cheating it’s a flip of the coin whether or not you get put in jail. At which point people usually forget that they have to pass you and you can usually just start rolling the dice again and hope you don’t get called out for escaping from jail.

Wait what's this rule about someone going past you in jail? I thought you had to roll doubles to get out?

Also jail is the best place to be late game.
