Re: [Audyssey] monopoly in 21 seconds
Hi Shaun, thanks for sharing this. Definitely quite interesting. The odds of this ever happening in someone's life time are slim to none, but its nice to know the game can be played and won so quickly if lady luck happens to shine on the player at just the right time.

Re: [Audyssey] monopoly in 21 seconds
Lol, the amusing point is player 2 can't even get out of that scenario, if the fates decide that way he's dooomed! Of course, equally player one would be taking a damnable risk using such a big chunk of her money that early in the game. I assume board walk is the square I know in the British London version as mayfare, ie the one right next to go. It also always does seem a little weerd to me to play without the no buying first time round the board rule While I know that rule is optional rather than official (though for a long time I thought it was), it still does seem strange to me to not see it in operation.

Re: [Audyssey] monopoly in 21 seconds
I find this not very likely. Here's why: When player 1 landed on Illinois Avenue, it should have been bought. Not only is it the most expensive of that group, but there is a card that tells a player to go directly to it. This increases the odds of it being landed on. Then, Player 2: Roll: 5-6, Lands on: Pennsylvania Rail Road Action: None. Comment: At this stage of the game, I would buy any unbought railroad I land on. Cards tell you to go directly to the nearest railroad and pay the owner twice the normal rent. The rent on them doubles each time you buy another one, and they are evenly spaced along the board. If you own all 4, they aren't all that far apart, and you might really rake in the cash from other players to the tune of $400 a pop. --- Be positive!

Hi Dark, Yes, Boardwalk and Park Place are the dark blue squares. Boardwalk is right next to go and is the most expensive property on the board. Cheers!

Re: [Audyssey] monopoly in 21 seconds
Hi Charles, Agreed, but the point was the fastest game possible. Not necessarily the smartest decisions when playing or what would be a good over all strategy for a typical Monopoly game. The only goal being put forth by the people in the article was seeing how fast they could finish a Monopoly game with the fewest moves possible. The right conditions are so unlikely anyway that I don't see this being realistically feasible. Cheers! On 8/13/14, Charles Rivard wee1s...@fidnet.com wrote: I find this not very likely.
