TWWF Monopoly

[Qara-Xuan Zenith]

I liked endless's idea that the currency is posts

Oh, yes, we're going with that. I haven't combed through all the cards to replace the terminology with that yet, though.
<_<
>_>

[JackAlsworth]

Maybe put the meta-characters at either red or purple, so you can use, "Nominated as campaign manager - advance to the Wicked Witch."

[Rick Healey]

I'm a bit sad that a banana with a stamp on it isn't being considered for a piece.

It could absolutely be considered for a piece.
I'm just shelving the whole issue of pieces for last, since from my perspective, it's the least essential part of the game.

[JackAlsworth]

Hmmmm... maybe "mail a banana for Adam" for one of the lower-level pay cards?

[The Wild West Pyro]

YES. JUST. YES. And make the guy advance to Erik.

Reading "Do not pass go" made me think of Nethack instead of Monopoly.
Yeah, that probably means I'm not familiar with it that much.

"Go to Jail! Go directly to Jai! Do not pass Go! Do not collect $200 dollars!" That's my favorite card, cause it's just so pushy.

Mine is 'You have won second prize in a beauty contest.' Well, thanks. So....mediocre. Who won first???

Here’s a thought, guys, instead of the places you ‘buy’ being characters why not make it something RELATED to the characters? Adam’s Playhouse, for example. Angel’s lab?

Hey Qara, does this ‘make Your Own Monopoly’ board allow you to use your own symbols and images an’ stuff?

[Qara-Xuan Zenith]

Hey Qara, does this ‘make Your Own Monopoly’ board allow you to use your own symbols and images an’ stuff?

It... does, for stuff, but I don't want to make this on that, partly because it's a little different from a standard Monopoly board, which is annoying, and partly because that does really nothing to help us play it together.

Also I'd really rather stick to the characters themselves-- you shouldn't get so hung up on the whole "buying" them, since first of all, our currency is forum posts, and second of all... it's Monopoly? It's not like we're 'buying' the character, so much as using the character's name in order to embed references in the game... and it would be really difficult to put in a "place" for each of the characters-- for example, The Regulator and Mr. A are both always based in the Void.

[Qara-Xuan Zenith]

Aaaaand allocation of characters!

• Mediterranean Avenue (Purple)-- Romeo
• Baltic Avenue (Purple)-- Juliet

• Saint James Place (Orange)-- James Pattison Raikes
• Tennessee Avenue (Orange)-- Lemuel Gulliver
• New York Avenue (Orange)-- Sherlock Holmes
• Kentucky Avenue (Red)-- The Regulator

• Park Place (Dark Blue)-- Gurt
• Boardwalk (Dark Blue)-- Mr. Administrator

I will update the remaining Chance/Community Chest cards to reflect this shortly.

[Qara-Xuan Zenith]

Well, I'm crazy. So here is a prototype Monopoly board!
This is NOT the finished thing, obviously-- for one thing, none of the images are there, plus the fonts are off and some things look bad due to Windows Paint's inability to invert text or images to go on a slant >_< (so if someone with more skillz than I wants to help make the board look pretty, I would greatly appreciate it). BUT it is the layout of where everything will be, so YAY.

[JackAlsworth]

I just have to say that the image of Mr. A in a jaunty top hat made my afternoon.

[eli_gone_crazy]

ok, I didn't notice that until Jack pointed it out, but it made me sneeze in class.

Not sure what else is left, beyond making the board prettier and discussing logistics. (And, yes, tokens, but it's kind of an irrelevant argument-- everyone can choose some relevant item/person as their own token, provided no one overlaps.)

[JackAlsworth]

Qara, if you don't select brain grenades as your token, I will be very disappoint.

[eli_gone_crazy]

Qara is obviously a brain. shane is a nuke, xana is a cup of coffee, scarab is a sketchpad, Adell is a half-melted phone, Pixel is a copy of alice in wonderland.... uh... Rota is a boomerang, JR is....something blue.

Rota can also be:

1. a boomstick
2. a potato
3. a car
4. a cactus

Eli is the half of a torso with the half of a face.

D: but I have a face! and and and, *out of ideas*

rota=sokka, so boomerang or space sword.

[Victin]

Rota = Boomstick
PotatovatoR = Potato
Torota = Car
Cactus = Sokka

Oh, and a friendly mushroom also could fit...

[eli_gone_crazy]

The friendly mushroom is too awesome to be restricted to one person.

sicon would be the Geass symbol, Mimsy would be a hat, JackAl would be an Anberlin cover

[Genndy Oda C.O.G.]

What, nothing for me?

[eli_gone_crazy]

Genndy would be bunny ears. (duh?)

[The Wild West Pyro]

ME:
I CAN BE EITHER:
1: Cowboy Lasso
2: Gas Mask
3: Wizard of Oz Book
4: Flames
5: M1 Garand

And that's about it.
