CirclMastr posted:Allen Wren I don't know how you made the pieces for Candyland but these ones are going to probably look like poo poo. Ingredients: Polymer clay (Sculpey brand), one packet per team color bamboo apple skewers, one package printouts of avs on heavy (60 lb) paper glue Procedure: Cut clay into cubes of approximately equal size. Clip points off of skewers, leaving two blunt ends. Push clipped end of skewer into cubes, remove. Bake cubes per clay package instructions, let cool. Reinsert skewers into cubes. Best results obtained when skewers are reinserted into the holes they made originally. Cut out printout of screenshot avs into individual rectangles. Glue avs to tops of skewers. Some heavier glues will soak through the paper, marring the appearance of the av. For best results, you may wish to glue a second copy of the av to the original with a lighter glue at the paper-paper bond. Let dry.

My recipe was self-adhesive popsicle sticks, modeling clay, and regular paper. They look like poo poo, but this is poo poo-talking casual Monopoly, so deal with it. Turn 1  The board with teams. Everyone starts on Go but you fuckers barely fit three to a space, so you'll have to use your imagination for that part. I was planning to have piles of money as well, but Parker Brothers didn't see fit to include enough money for 18 players at once. I consider that a massive oversight.  Here are your lovely pieces, with team colors. Also pictured: Pixel, the watchdog of capitalism.  And here are your die rolls. Fortunately I already had a brick of d6's from my Shadowrun days.  Allen Wren is the lucky loser who starts by landing on Income Tax, sapping him of 150 bucks. Four people dogpile on Chance, and Spigs (accidentally on the wrong space in this picture, but corrected later) ends up on Community Chest. A few people visit jail, and most end up on the light blue properties. I'll try to be more organized in future, I promise. (No promises on succeeding at organization.)  UnCO3 pays a poor tax of $12. I guess the poor weren't such a tax burden back in 1935 berenzen ends up advancing to the next railroad, and must pay $50 (again, we're not upcharging for monopolies, but the Chance card instructs the player to pay double) oldskool jumps up to Illinois Ave and gets to pay the twenty bucks to stay the night there in the high-rent district. But most important, Pez gets to advance to Go right out of the gate, earning a cool $200 and officially becoming the rabbit.  Spigs, meanwhile, gets paid off for killing someone.  The people who rolled doubles get their next move, and nobody risks jail.  Absurd Revolver does land on Community Chest though, and wins second prize in a beauty contest.  The state of the board after turn 1. You all definitely look better spread out. ##JOKER CHALLENGE Pez reached Go and became the rabbit, so it's time for a chance to earn a Joker. Remember, it's one Joker per team. Today's Challenge: In this arbitrary team breakup, you've got to have team spirit to survive all the poo poo-talking. So I want each team to come up with a team song, anthem, or motto to share together in times of celebration and hardship. MONEY TOTALS: TEAM HAT 1. UnCO3 - $1488 2. Allen Wren - $1338 3. DivineCoffeeBinge - $1496 TEAM SHOE 1. Aafter - $1494 2. Pez - $1700(!!!) 3. Ron Roenicke - $1492 TEAM BATTLESHIP 1. Podima - $1494 2. bowmore - $1500 3. berenzen - $1450 TEAM THIMBLE 1. chaoslord - $1500 2. Maigius - $1494 3. JakeP - $1494 TEAM CANNON 1. PBS Newshour - $1500 2. Lemniscate Blue - $1494 3.

Is "Talk poo poo, Get Shot" too upfront? Or the song of the same name? I'm trying to get a feel of what is appropriate. Also, sup Ron?

oldskool posted:You ever burn yourself on an iron? How about on a cannon? Exactly. Indeed, thanks to the sacrifices of those brave men behind the cannons, the only danger you will ever be in is burning yourself on common household appliances, rather then getting shot at by big guns. In fact it's because of those Cannons (And maybe Battleships too but they're a bit pointless once you get on land) that you can very safely talk poo poo and scold yourself in the comfort of your own home. You're welcome.

Over here at team hat, we're not fighters, we're lovers. We believe in the finer things in life. We're here to ride high, taste the finest wines and make it rain bills in every room.

Joker Allen Wren posted:Over here at team hat, we're not fighters, we're lovers. We believe in the finer things in life. We're here to ride high, taste the finest wines and make it rain bills in every room. Not even a link to the song, let alone a video of you performing it? You're lucky UnCO3 is around. The other teams have until midnight Monday (pacific time, i.e. a little more than 36 hours) to get on the ball OR until Pez reaches Go again, whichever comes first, though obviously the latter will mean they have a new Joker challenge they can pitch in toward. Update incoming.

Turn 2 I am not seeing many doubles in my rolls, it seems. But that's probably a good thing.  Team Hat is pretty spread out; UnCO3 takes a railroad, Allen Wren gets all the way to Illinois Ave, and DivineCoffeeBinge is still on the first row.  Pez lands on Chance AGAIN (another "Advance to Go" card would kinda piss me off), while the rest of Team Shoe dances around the railroad but avoids the $25 ticket.  berenzen gets to Kentucky Ave, while bowmore and Podima join the crowd forming in and around Pennsylvania Railroad.  Team Thimble decides to stick together almost perfectly. I'm surprised to see such camaraderie given their complete lack of participation in the Joker challenge.  Team Cannon decides on a flanking maneuver, staying on the two ends of the second row. Lemniscate Blue is the first victim of a utility, which in this edition charges four times the die roll for rent ($24 in this case).  oldskool takes a long hop to the Short Line, Spigs joins the crowd on St. James, and Absurd Revolver lands on the last untouched red property.  Pez's Chance card takes $50 away, but this is after giving $200 last time so I feel little sympathy.  Pennsylvania Railroad is where the party is, I guess. Podima moves up to the third row with their reroll, and PBS Newshour reaches the yellows. MONEY TOTALS: TEAM HAT - JOKER 1. UnCO3 - $1463 2. Allen Wren - $1318 3. DivineCoffeeBinge - $1488 TEAM SHOE - JOKER 1. Aafter - $1482 2. Pez - $1650 3. Ron Roenicke - $1478 TEAM BATTLESHIP 1. Podima - $1464 2. bowmore - $1475 3. berenzen - $1432 TEAM THIMBLE 1. chaoslord - $1475 2. Maigius - $1469 3. JakeP - $1480 TEAM CANNON - JOKER 1. PBS Newshour - $1464 2. Lemniscate Blue - $1470 3. TheNabster - $1482 TEAM IRON 1. oldskool - $1455 2. Spigs - $1578 3. Absurd Revolver - $1487
