Find someone to play with here or ask questions about the game.

Games can be between 2-4 players.

When you're seeking for a partner(s), mention what kind of game you're looking for or your reading speed. For example, I read really fast, so I'd probably work better playing against someone else who reads really fast. Or, I read one book a week, so a slower paced game would be better for me.

I will post Q & A's here for quick reference:
Question: Once the passport stamp has been collected by someone, no one else can collect it, right? One passport stamp per space?"
Answer: Correct.

Question: Are there different amounts of rent for each property? Or is it just the 1 location of 2 other tasks per space?"
Answer: When you land on a city, you will read 1 book (or the 2 optional books) to get the stamp on your passport. If someone has already collected the stamp, you will still read 1 book, either set in that country or from the 2 optional choices.

Question: Is there a spreadsheet function we can access to help us keep track of the stamps?
Answer: No. What was done on the old Monopoly game was that one of the players would volunteer to keep track of the properties and who owned them. You or your opponent should post the list of the cities and update it when stamps are collected.

Question: I finished a book a few days ago that fit with my task. Can I use it or do I need to read a book after I received the task?
Answers: It needs to be a book you started after you received the task.

Question: What's the rule for rolling doubles?
Answer:There is no special rule for doubles. Take the spot your roll takes you to.

For those of you who are planning on participating in Ezi's Super Series and Super SPEEDY Series that's starting soon, please consider whether you have the time to commit to starting a Monopoly game right now.

If you think it might be a concern, you are welcome to come looking for a partner(s) after SS and SSS is over.

I'd like to play. I wasn't part of the last game. I read between 3-6 books a week.

I'd like to play. I read about one book a week.

Question: Once the passport stamp has been collected by someone, no one else can collect it, right? One passport stamp per space?

I also have a question: Are there different amounts of rent for each property? Or is it just the 1 location of 2 other tasks per space?

Correct.

Ah alright, so no extra penalty for landing on an already owned property.

i finished a book a few days ago that fit with my task. Can i use it or do i need to read a book after i received the task?

Nancy, it needs to be a book you read after you received the task.

That's what i thought, but just wanted to make sure

I also would like to play, and I read one book a week.

Tiffany, I read about the same amount of books.
Would you like to play at game with me?

Sure! That sounds fun!

Does it have to be started after you get the task or just finished?

Tiffany wrote: "Does it have to be started after you get the task or just finished?"

Yes, it needs to be started after you get the task.

I'll set up a thread for us. Do you want to keep track of when the passport stamps get collected, or shall I?

Hello, I am new here, just joined today! I would like to play, but I need a partner. I usually have 2-3 books going at a time and finish a couple a week. I have been reading over the rules and trying to get an understanding of how the game is played here. :)

Stormie, you're welcome to join Tiffany and me in our game. We read about the same amount and we haven't started yet.

Jackie and Jim, you've both indicated that you read a book a week.
You should play a game together.

Would Percy Jackson count as a book set on an island?

Maddison wrote: "Would Percy Jackson count as a book set on an island?"

I don't know which Percy Jackson book you're referring to. I've only read The Lightning Thief, and that was a long time ago. I remember Percy traveling to Las Vegas during the story. If Percy spends at least 1/3 of the book on an island, then it should count.

Does it have to be a tropical island? Or could it be like Manhattan/New Zealand? Just places surrounded by water?

Maddison wrote: "Does it have to be a tropical island? Or could it be like Manhattan/New Zealand? Just places surrounded by water?"

Any island will do. I read a lot of Regency romances, so my island would probably be England :)

Oh wow doesn't help I don't know much geography :p

Thank you, I would love to. Do I post this on the sign-up thread now or what? :)

Nope. All I need to do is add your name to our game. Head on over and roll.

What's the rule for rolling doubles? Can I take the spot the doubles lead me to, or do I have to roll again and move on from there?

There is no special rule for doubles. Take the spot your roll takes you to.

I would like to play if anyone's willing. I read (on average) 1-2 books a week :)

This is probably a dumb question, but how do we decide who rolls first?

TY!

Jim & Jackie, would you like to go in on a game - all 3 of us read about the same speed!

I don't know about Jackie, but I'd go in on a three-person game.

Jim

Jim"

I tried messaging Jackie but their account isn't taking new messages. So let's give it till tonight to see if Jackie sees this post. If not, we can do a 2-person game which is also allowed :)

I can join in. :)

Awesome!

Ladies first? ;)

What type of game are you looking for, Christine? A fast game or a slower game?

I'd like to play a slower game if anyone is available.

Wolf (Alpha) wrote: "I'd like to play a slower game if anyone is available."

I'd be willing to play with you.

Cool, thanks.

Anyone for a fast game?

Wolf (Alpha) wrote: "Anyone for a fast game?"

When you say 'fast', how many books a week is that, Wolf?

Lanelle wrote: "Wolf (Alpha) wrote: "Anyone for a fast game?"

Around 10-15.

I'll read at whatever pace needed.

Wolf (Alpha) wrote: "Anyone for a fast game?"

I will.

I'm looking for a game too. I attempt to read a book a week.

I can play with you, Slytherpuff.
