I wonder if he knows the rule about what happens if you land on a property and don’t buy it?

“If you do not wish to buy the property, the Banker sells it at auction to the highest bidder. The buyer pays the Bank the amount of the bid and receives the Title Deed card for that property. Any player, including the one who declined the option to buy it at the printed price, may bid. Bidding may start at any price.”

Technically, he can buy every property he lands on for $1. (I don’t think “zero” is an acceptable bid.)

I used to do this, too…I was a lonely, lonely kid.

You can’t lose this way!

That’s how Fearless Leader plays. Say? Where’s Greenland?

Can he buy himself out?

This is what happens when you play games and focus on the getting all the achievements.

Achievement Earned! Buy all Purple Properties, SLUM LORD!

Achievement Earned! Own all four railroads, ROBBER BARON!

Achievement Earned! Own both utilities, LET THERE BE LIGHT!

By the way, Bill. Bill Amend? Yes, you! WE WANT NEW DAILY FOXTROTS!

And here all along I thought "playing with yourself’ meant something totally different…

Just wait until the bank needs governmental support.

Solitaire Monopoly. You never lose!

I’ve done this before. I’ve played Risk by myself before, MERP, Star Wars Role-playing (WEG version), and all sorts of video games. I’m pretty asocial.
