Amanda | 380 comments I don't think I am going to get this year's challenge done, I have been ignoring it for too long, but am signing up for this one and am determined to get on with it.

Will work on my shelf and the other admin type stuff when I am at home ( at work now, so best get back to it! ).

Amanda | 380 comments I can't read the board!!

Do I need to get my eyes tested, or is it hard to read ?

Sorry, Amanda... it's the best image I found online but as Dee said the list of squares are in the second post so you don't really have to read the board. It's there just as a pretty picture ;)

Dee, loving that you're pretty much ready for the challenge! we're limiting number of books on shelf to 90 -just so that it won't take people too long to peruse & pick books :)

Dee (austhokie) | 2695 comments i guess i need to take some books off then ;)

Lahni | 660 comments Sounds like a fun game!! I'm a little daunted by all the posting, threads and date stamping but I'm sure it will make sense as I see what others are doing.

I'll post the link to my shelf here after I make it!

Lahni's Bookopoly Shelf


message 15: by Lahni (new)

Lahni | 660 comments Question: I know we start rolling Dec 1. Can we start reading then as well? ( I assume yes since there are time limits for purchasing properties) Or do we need to wait until Jan to officially begin reading?

message 19: by Marina (new)

Marina (sonnenbarke) | 1513 comments Oh my God, this is awesome! I have yet to understand how the game actually works, but I will read the FAQs and rules more in depth before December 1.
I'm in, needless to say. I really need to reduce my TBR pile.
My shelf is: Marina's Bookopoly shelf. I currently have 95 books in it (it was previously my POTS shelf), but I'll try to reduce it to 90.

Amanda | 380 comments Here's my shelf, a work in progress

https://www.goodreads.com/review/list...

Sorry, can't do your fancy embedding thingy! ;)

I figure it's easiest to go through the shelves for properties, see what books are on my tbr and that I own and work from there.

I'm excited about the enthusiasm for this game. It should be really fun. While I'm sorry to see the POTS game go away, I think this is a great replacement!

I will be back this afternoon to update the participants list. :)

Don't feel bad. I totally missed the 90 book limit, too, and I have been looking at this for a while.....BUT since your shelf can be added to/subrtacted from/changed in between dice rolls, then you can always add those books back as the others get read.

message 44: by Amanda (new)

Amanda | 380 comments Ok, i can't see were to ask questions, so will ask here. It's controversial, hold onto your hats!

Most fights when beginning Monopoly tend to be whether or not you can buy property first time around the board. My understanding is that you can't, but anyway ...

So, my question is, can you buy property on your first go around with this game ?

Lol yes... I'd like to have owned properties set up as soon as we can so the challenge can basically run itself without much moderation :)
