Really? I didn't know that!
Uh????
hmm we don't play that way
ok. work on it...
I've never played it that way...hmm, must be the European version??
i never knew that if you don't want to buy something in monopoly puts it in the auction unless you make up rules to it....
for all of those people who do not play it that way i will say the proper way to play is to put it up for auction if not bought is the proper way to play and i should know because i play it EVERY time i have the chance which is ALMOST once a week
I had no clue because I don't play monopoly.
its the orthodox game, but many people would prefer to have a simpler game by simply denying the property. These and other house rules, such as the free-parking tax-collection, are just variants of the standard game.
I go to a lot of Auctions so I thought and thought and thunk and thunk and really tried to think! and missed it! I remember that rule although it has been years since I played!
ive never played that way but i never rally rad the rules, i just played it the way my mom told me to, (when it came to the rules) cause im a good girl . but technically ur not supposed to pick up money when u land on free parking so the auction rule could be true too. also that rule would make the game go faster, i guess, since the other way the game takes forever .
I usually don't play that way... Luckily I just played online like that right before I read this!
