Well it seems that the mod's have taken to deleting monopoly threads as of lately. This is going to be a problem for people like myself who enjoy playing so I am setting out to find a solution that will work for both the mods and players alike. So lets hear your ideas. The first two that come to mind are a New Forum or a Stickied thread, both of which have serious down sides in my opinion. So lets hear your idea's.

A sticky Lets Play Monopoly would work. Just go to the end of the thread to see the most current game.

Indeed. The simplest solution.

GIVING YOUR PROPERTY WAY RIGHT BEFORE GOING BANKRUPT IS A DICK MOVE DO NOT DO IT!!!

I you have to go, leave, resign, quit, whatever but don't screw up the game for everyone else...

Its be best idea so far, my only problem with it is you have to always check to see if anyone wants to play. I personally like the current situation, but a sticked thread would be my next choice. So I guess its in the mod's hands now. They need to either come up with a better idea, let things be as they are or make a sticky thread.

Speaking of mod input I know there is a tread in forum issues, but have we heard any input from the mod's.

I agree with this... I think if we do a sticky thread we need to write some rules(well more a list of common courtesies) or something with this being one of them

I am having trouble understanding why there is so much hype with Monopoly lately - the game isn't THAT fun!

It's addictive. I played it long before you guys started. It's very addictive. :)

Anybody used those "private threads" yet that were supposed to be implemented in the latest version of FuseTalk? Maybe we could just have a thread that contained an updated list of people who would be interested in getting msged about a new game...I know I'd be interested in playing sometimes, but wouldn't think to check a thread or something...as of right now, I end up thinking about Monopoly when I see a new thread on it.

Just a thought, since I think it's highly doubtful that a mod'll give us a stickied thread, and a forum in itself is just out of the question.

Thats the problem even a sticky thread is going to have that problem. Still looking for idea's and mod's input.
