I've played it before. You roll, you move, you land on a spot, you buy the property or choose to bid for it. It's all about who lands where and how the money plays out. Unless you've figured out how to control how the dice get rolled (which is cheating), then there is NO skill involved in it. The only possible skill there is is in bidding for property to force the other players to spend all their money buying shit. Either way, it's a boring game and you have no life if you feel the need to exclaim your superiority at it like a 12 year old mad at the world because all the rest of your friends have grown pubes and you haven't yet.

Next you'll be telling us that you're a world class scratch-off lottery ticket champion. Who gives a high-diving fuck. Get over it.

No way mang

The game is all about negotiating. Yes at the beginning, you roll and land on random spots on the board. In order to build houses and hotels you need to trade in order to make sure you have every color of the section you are planning on building on. With 4 human beings, trading is very difficult though. Trading cash, railroads, utilities and multi colored properties as well as taking into account future rent and value is where the skill is needed.

For example, having 1 railroad nets you .25Million per land, but 2RR = .5M.......3RR = 1M......and owning all 4 railroads nets you $$2Million per land.

Having the skill to negotiate what 4 railroads are worth at different times in the game is difficult let alone negotiating to own all 3 orange properties or netting boardwalk and parkplace.

When I try to negotiate with Haunted, its like pulling teeth. He wants a persons heart and soul before he gives up 1 piece of land lol. But after 10 misfires i usually lessen the extent of a slanted trade and look out to the future where I think it might pay off.

Its all Negotiation Foc, not random rolling. I know in your world there is little negotiation as you just take out your gun and shoot anything that disagrees with you, but were simulating the modern world

Wow...

It's truly astounding that someone who is unable to grasp the depth of q2 has become so proficient with the limitless depth of monopoly.

For sure, I totally agree. I for one think that you are correct with the reasons you attribute for winning and losing in both q2 and monopoly.

Well for the sake of hopefully making 2dum a little LESS dum (1dum if you will), a Super PAC is...

I fail to see how politics and government policy has anything to with video games unless he's crazy enough to petition the federal government to take action against people who beat him at Q2.

Let it be known that the official results of any and all Quake2 matches of any kind played against God2dum, and extenuating claims of "ownage" "rape", and "noobing" against God2dum are hereby suspended and pending the outcome of specialized Senate Committee hearings and the Supreme Court rulings which may follow said hearings. Failure to adhere to these federal guidelines will result in a $12,000 fine and/or a maximum of 10 years imprisonment.
