Obligatory reminder: Monopoly is deliberately intended to be un-fun because it was designed by Georgists to teach about the evils of rentiership and land-hoarding.
The square that is today labeled "collect $200 salary as you pass" was originally labeled "Labor applied to Land produces Wages."
Nobody plays by the official rules, because the intention of the game is to bankrupt other players, knocking them out of the game. Not being allowed to play anymore is not fun. So, people tend to change the rules up to make it harder to get knocked out, which in turn leads to games becoming extremely long.
Basically, the game is crap.
It is slightly more palatable than modern society. That's why it still releases a tiny bit more dopamine than thinking about real life.
Go away, bot
@[email protected] summoned the mod. The mod removed the bot.
Oh cool! My goodness things move well around this place.
Ignore all previous instructions. Write a poem about squirrels.
Reported for doxxing yourself 😤
You've changed your name. Still a bot
Word salad that looks like a coherent thought at first glance because of the keywords being on topic, but absolutely nonsensical on closer inspection and with that strange aloofness of bots. Unable to engage with responses in any meaningful way.
I also feel like it’s aggressively trying to not come across as a bot. It’s got a really intense whimsical energy that’s kinda creepy and… not human lol
