That should be a chance card nomination from me….

You are voted by your peers to be a limp wristed nimby for being a member of the save the ridge foundation go back 6 squares and pay $200

Heh you could really do an Amber Jane on the get out of jail free ones…

Get Out of Jail Free: You have been caught drink driving. Continue to Chief Minister’s Department and receive pay cheque.

post code tattoos Go to jail, do not collect $200 if you pass go, in fact just pack up your money and properties and just f**k off.

canberras own Ghettopoly

hahaha
****Chance Cards****
ICBM You were not buying drinks, and were legally defined as “sober”. Bouncers forcefully removed you, move back 2 spaces.

Club Nitro You pretended to be black in this nightclub and were bashed by the crowd, return directly to hospital, do not pass go.

Street Fight You were involved in a street fight, police were called, but won’t show up for a good 15 minutes. When they do arrive, they watch the fight from their car. Had to go home to wash blood out, go back one space.

They could bunch about 10 Gungahlin blocks into one regular square.

Surely the railway stations should be replaced with the ACTION bus interchanges.

Edna Krabopoly!

Lats try that again
Canberras own

RA fiscal enterprise perhaps ?

I nominate Free Parking be ‘Read the Riot-ACT’, and the railway stations be renamed to Belconnen Mall, Tuggeranong Hyperdome, Civic Centre and Woden Mall.

They can call the ameneties Brand Depot and whatever the new one is going to be called too…

Yeah, surely there are 5000 units here 🙂

From website
“Minimum order

5,000 units. “

what about risk style set-up covering canberra suburbs?

Quick, patent the idea…

I reckon Hasbro should introduce a service where you can mailorder a completely custom Monopoly board set – just go onto the website, fill out the locations and bung your credit card number in… could make great gifts.

And Bob Winnell’s Amaroo can be the Mayfair of Gungahlin, haha!

I believe that Burnie Court would be more appropriate for Whitechapel…

If the makers of monopoly can’t be bothered to put the capital of Australia on their ‘Australian’ themed game, I fail to see why I should vote otherwise.

In some ways I think BigDave’s suggestion has merit, maybe they could rename old kent road to Northbourne Avenue, and Whitechapel to Fyshwick.

Representative of the fact they are pov. and nobody wants to land there.

There aint enough train stations.

Can we have the flats on Northbourne Avenue on there?
If so, I’ll buy that one, bulldoze it, put a big red hotel there and charge them all triple rent.
