I found this site (www.games.com ) and you can play games such as Monopoly, Scrabble, Yahtzee, me and Troon are gonna have a game of Monopoly in a few minutes (when he's finished playing something else) and we were just wondering if anyone wanted to join us, there can be up to 4 players....

oh come on, Monopoly rocks, somebody must wanna play

Nope, not interested.
It's a capitalist plot. :D

Dammit! I'm at work. Otherwise I'd join you.

heheh, TAG though.

I'd play scrabble, but not monopoly.

I was playing against an anti-capitalist yesterday




he beat me twice in a row :(

Time for bed here... 11:41 PM

My first post !!! ;)

I'd play scrabble, but not monopoly.
I'll ask Troon, but i dunno, he gets annoyed playing Scrabble with me

Ah. I've just been told, I'm not actually going to be available. I've got to wash up. Sorry.

that's ok, Troon refuses to play Scrabble with me anymore anyway (he's a sore loser)

Hee hee. I've always wanted to sink a battleship or three.

that's ok, Troon refuses to play Scrabble with me anymore anyway (he's a sore loser)

Sore loser indeed!

She invented words! I want someone to find, in a decent dictionary, "Dogeys".

I challenged that, and lost.

I could play Scrabble, but Monopoly is the game of purest evil.

Sore loser indeed!

the reason you lost the challenge is because the word exists! :rolleyes:

Bwahahaha... :D

I just pwnd someone and when he was supposed to pay $1300 for a street with 4 houses I owned, he mysteriously didn't do anything for 30 mins. That is when I quit the game. It cost me my rating, but this was real cheap :mad:

the reason you lost the challenge is because the word exists! :rolleyes:

I want to see proof, damn it! Someone please post me some kind of link - anything - that shows that this word is real.

yeah monopoly! Give me a shout when every you want another palyer

Cool. Monopoly!

I LOVE MONOPOLY. My friends will never play with me! Give me a shout if you want another player. The easiest way to get ahold of me is on AIM. I'm 'fadedsockofchaos' on there.

Too bad they don't have Anti-Monopoly. Yes, it's a real game we had when we were kids. Instead of acquiring property, you were supposed to indict monopolies, trusts, and oligopolys. I guess that's why I'm a moderate now. :D

There is Anti-Monpoly. I've personally designed my own "Anti-Capitalist Monopoly" board: if anyone wants to TG me their email address, I'd be more than happy to send it to them.

I know of a game where you start with a ridiculous amount of money and need to spend it all until the end, while during the game you still get millions upon millions handed to you, which hinders you from spending all the money. THAT is a nice game :)

Oh, I've played that and won! I'm a natural at wasting money.

I want to see proof, damn it! Someone please post me some kind of link - anything - that shows that this word is real.
I'm finding no proof...sorry Tink.

I'm finding no proof...sorry Tink.
the thing is though, Troon challenged it when we were playing and Scrabble found it to be valid so I'm sorry but clearly it's a word

and just for proof: http://encarta.msn.com/encnet/features/dictionary/DictionaryResults.aspx?search=dogeys

it's a motherless calf so :p

Other words that I lost my challenges to:

"routh"
"hodad"
"frena"

The first two can only be found in www.urbandictionary.com, which contains other fine examples of the English language, such as "woot" and "leet".

Or am I wrong?

it isn't my fault Scrabble allowed them! and frena is a perfectly legitimate word, you can't moan about that one

"Woot" is actually a word??? :confused:

I always thought it was just some kind of cyber-expression...

well i doubt they'd allow it in scrabble

That was my point; it isn't a real word at all.

And I know it's not your fault, TInk, that Scrabble allows them, but I'm giving a reason for my less-than-overwhelming enthusiasm for playing it again.

i love monopoly, i'll play if you want

Then play Monopoly. I'm assuming its the American versoin, but I also loved all of the spin-offs...

we have a Lancashire version at home

Really? What type of properties are there in that? Names, I mean...

Tink! I haven't spoken to you in weeks. :fluffle: :fluffle:

I prefer chess to monopoly. I wonder how they got the word 'monopoly'? If you break it down into 'mono' and 'poly' the two sorta contradict each other.

the dark blues are Blackpool Tower and Lancaster Castle, there's the Reebok Stadium and Blackburn Rovers, Blackpool Pleasure Beach, Pendle Hill (i think), i can't really remember any more, not that it really matters, you've probably never heard of any of the places anyway lol

it's because the idea is to get a monopoly of the different colours, ie. you have to get lots (poly) of one (mono) colour (if that makes any sense at all)

yay, logins a-plenty on bugmenot.com :D

Can't we just make a universal monopoly so that we don't have to worry about all these street names? You know what's even worse? Now we've got a Simpsons monopoly! Why can't we just stick with the original?

The Reebok??? Home of the Trotters? Brilliant!

yeah, i think it's a pink but i'm not sure

Pardon my ignorance, but what are 'The Trotters'? I don't think that it's a stadium full of shoes... so?

yeah, i think it's a pink but i'm not sure

I should try and find that version... or maybe the one with the solid gold board, platinum pieces and ruby-studded houses and hotels... *drool*

Bolton Wanderers

First you don't know what TVR is, then you don't know who the Trotters are... you are a problem child. However, the ignorance of the Trotters is less of a sin than not knowing of TVR... the "Trotters" is a nickname for the football team (proper football) Bolton Wanderers.

Me a problem child? I'll tell you what, once you start geting more than me in maths tests and join in on our religious and scientific conversations, then I'll respect your opinion! Problem child....... :sniper:

Wouldn't you much prefer that crystal chess set we saw in the city?

I DO get more than you in maths tests... and I don't join in your silly arguments cos that's all they are. Using big words doesn't make you informed. I'm satisfied just believing in God. I don't try to disprove his/her existence. I spend my time doing other things.

*Back on topic*

Chess is good, but its just not as capitalist as monopoly...

do you fancy a game? I'm really bored, Troon's left me

I mean proper maths tests. Polynomials is proper maths. Statistics is not! Believing in God is not enough. You need to justify your beliefs and defend them against Atheist antagonists.

do you fancy a game? I'm really bored, Troon's left me

Sure. I'll try and register.

Hmmm, Liv Tyler or monopoly (or whatever) with Tink? I'll see if I can get on before all the other people do. :p

that's not necasarily true, i think it's good that he believes what he believes and doesn't feel the need to justify himself to anybody else, if someone wants to believe in God then that's up to them, if someone doesn't want to believe in God, that's up to them, neither should put the other down over what they believe

ok, once you've registered, you click 'play games' then you click 'Monopoly' then you click 'Hotel Haven', i'll be waiting for you there

I don't get involved in arguments with Atheists. I find most of them small-minded and arguing with them pointless. No offence, of course. :p

I suppose it comes down to whether you want to be happy or right.

None taken.

I suppose it comes down to whether you want to be happy or right.

No, it comes down to being satisified with what we have or being argumentative. Sometimes, if you are given the answer, then the question may be taken away (got that line in).

Besides, I was baptised, so yeah... *sticks out tongue*

I can't get past step 2 for some reason...

I've put everything in. It tells me that I can only use alpha numeric character and that I must put in a zip code. I've done both and it wont let me through?

Neither can I. Little point in being baptised if there's no God. I'm going to stop with this before it becomes yet another God thread. You stop too!

is your username already being used?

what's step 2?

Name, Username, Zip code, Password, etc. Who puts red text on an orange background, really?

what's step 2?

Where you put all your details in... perhaps my e-mail is wrong (I can't remember)

Can't I just play as a quest?

It doesn't say so. "C Catholics" think anyone else is using that?

I don't think it recognises the post-code...

I don't think it recognises the post-code...
just type in a load of numbers for the zip code thing, that's what i did

No, I got it. No underscores, honestly!

I'm waiting for the e-mail...

I don't think it recognises the post-code...

There's an error with the post code and user name. It says to only use alpha-numeric charaters for 'C Catholics' and that I must enter a zip code. '5087' is a zip code isn't it?

Got it. Cant use spaces, made up anumber for the zip code.
