Joe, are the "Papa's Retirement Fund" and "Trust Jesus" cards all settled?  Or do you leave open the option of adding in new cards based on current/future Update developments, and adding them to the deck?

Because it would be fun to include scenarios like "eating cheeseburgers for bowling energy" to those cards:

I'll consider looking into thinking about that in the near future.

It appears Oakvale's storng christian values are winning on this game.

[AndrewTX]

I feel like the world is against me... I'm never able to purchase any property by just sitting here doing nothing. But I will continue to just praise to Jesus, and he will provide me with a good property.

[Oakvale]

Joe, after careful prayer I have decided not to buy Grandma's House. I still plan to do so within a few years, just not right now. Why buy it when she is willing to let me live there rent-free?

King advances to AutoCAD(D) Play Room

Would you like to purchase this property for $260 of your parents' money?






 

King advances to Ma & Pa's Trailer

Would you like to purchase this property for $320 of your parents' money?

[King]

I strongly believe God wants me to have a career in CAD(D) and will be purchasing the AutoCAD(D) Play Room complete with ergonomic chair.

I also strongly believe God wants me to own Ma and Pa's trailer as collateral to fund my eventual move to Kenya.

I would like to purchase both properties.

[Joe Republic]

Oh dear!  I seem to have forgotten that King was meant to have skipped a turn!  I guess to make things fair, I'll pretend that his turn just now didn't happen.  Then when his next turn comes around, I'll play it out the way it just did.  So if anybody lands on either of the two properties he just bought during the next round, then they may still be purchased.

I know I've made a mistake, but ultimately I know that I have done nothing wrong.  You all can say what you like and try and knock me down over this tiny little mistake, but it'll be me who's laughing and carrying on doing everything just the way I want.

[JerryArkansas]

[Joe Republic]

Jesus, RIP me. Why didn't I just blatantly lie about my weight?

The irony is that if you had just walked for just one more space, you could have spent an equal amount of money but received something rather beneficial to show for it.

Bore     $2239

Bore passes GO and collects $200 of his parents' money, advances to Papa's Retirement Fund and draws a card:

He was previously on the "Papa's Retirement Fund" in the green area.  If he rolled an 8, then he should end up in Blondie's Kennel, not the next Papa's Retirement Fund.

I just tinkled on your argument.

[King]

Praise the Lord. The skipping of the turn worked out after all. My purchase of those two properties were not scams.

[Joe Republic]

I definitely remember Bore rolling 9.  I must have mistyped the 3 of one of the dice as a 2.

You guys keep knocking me down over the tiniest mistakes.  You've had your fun, but I'm done.  This is the end of Update-opoly forever.

[Grumpier Than Uncle Joe]

You people have NO RIGHT to beat up Joe over all his f[inks]ups.....IT'S NOT FAIR DAMNIT.  Praise Joe and Praise Jesus that he decided to take up his free time putting this game together.  [/rant]

[Mr. Morden]

You guys keep knocking me down over the tiniest mistakes.  You've had your fun, but I'm done.  This is the end of Update-opoly forever.

Then why haven't you locked the thread?  Heck, if you really were done with Update-opoly, then you'd de-friend us all from Facebook-opoly, to prevent us from finding out updates about the game there and posting them here.

I'm afraid Update-opoly will never end.  As long as you're posting here, you won't be able to help yourself.  You may go on hiatus from time to time, but you'll always come back.

C:-)  New rule  C:-)

If you take longer than 24 hours to decide if you want to stay in bed or pay to wake up, you'll be staying in bed anyway.

[AndrewTX]

Praise sweet Jesus! With hard work and dedication, I was able to pay a bill all on my own! (Momma was nice enough to put 50 dollars ony account) so I would like to take my b12 shot and get out of bed. I know that it seems like I nap too much, but taking a small 4-8 hour nap at least every other normal, AND NOBODY CAN TELL THERE is ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT!!!!!
