These guys are trolling you. It's been miserable.

So, today I dropped by at Andrew's mansion. It's a quaint building near the heart of the capitol, adorned with rows of fine musical volumes and luxurious teas growing in the cupboard. We gossiped for a while about Adam Horton, then the butler came to inform us that wero had arrived, soon followed by jonts and gendo. We ate crumpets and began various games of monopoly, laughing about how it resembled our own conquests of High society. Soon later, wero left to locate geolib, and we continued the same game of monopoly before becoming quite peckish. Afterward, we headed toward the board and brew, an upscale establishment in the finest part of town and drank cocktails while exploring the new monopoly expansion. After being joined by axeknight and a newcomer to the forums, we split in to several groups and played various games, including a time travel variant of Othello. After a long day, I had to retire, then come back here and write this completely legitimate recollection.

Jonts
Andrew
Geo
Axe
Newcomer
Wero
Gendo
Jsh (the most humble of the group)

He's kind of a big deal.

And no pictures

Jsh - just a reminder to tell Donald about checking the wording on the one card that may or may not be broken in combination with other cards.

Here's the box that contains the new monopoly expansion:

And here's the players (L to R: Dingan, Jonts, Wero, FTTW, GeoLib, Axe Knight, JSH, Gendo)

Are those tokens on the table on the right part of the new monopoly expansion?

jsh357 · « **Reply #107 on:** January 25, 2015, 10:37:42 am »

Those are filler tokens from some other game I bought for testing.

But similar tokens might be part of the real thing? I guess it was in the blurb that there would be new tokens...

jsh357 · « **Reply #109 on:** January 25, 2015, 10:40:45 am »

The tokens are not like the real ones as far as I know

werothegreat · « **Reply #110 on:** January 25, 2015, 11:55:09 am »

We (geolib and I) are at board and brew. Where are the rest of you?

Witherweaver · « **Reply #111 on:** January 25, 2015, 12:00:28 pm »

I'm going to be in Atlantic City all this week; this crew should drive up~!

Jsh is being quite conservative. My house is much bigger than a mansion.

We could tell that by the size of the bathroom in the picture. Just look at all that reading material!

What are those cards on the other side of the base cards? [ZOOM] [ENHANCE]

Looks like Border Village, Young Witch and Conspirator.

Yesterday morning, I was one of you. Now, I know all these things that I can't tell any of you. *melodramatic sigh*

But seriously, super excited for this expansion, even after seeing the cards - I can't wait to see the official artwork and stuff!

And yeah, Hot Air Balloon is pretty OP.

Seconded. Can't wait to actually play with the real cards! Thanks for inviting me.

Thank you to everyone who came, I had a great time and I consider myself very lucky to have gotten a preview of the new cards. We should try to do this once a year or so.

On another note, I'm pretty sure I left my shampoo at Andrew's place.

Uh-huh, now you have to come back to see him again. I know that trick.

What's worse is that now I can't edit the Adventures page on the wiki without it looking like I'm confirming or denying something.

Just go on every day and link it to Wikipedia's Monopoly page.
