[Buzzer, Matt passed]
Not a bad guess, we were looking for Lesotho, entirely surrounded by South Africa.
As it was a utility, no penalty for a wrong answer, let's roll again.

?CHANCE?
Alright Burton, what's the chance this time?
Not a bad one Sam: Advance to Illinois Avenue.
And advance we shall, and we're look at rent of?
A rather cool $1100.
And Clément, this is the question for your rent:
Which of the these planets does not have rings? Neptune, Jupiter, Mars.

Post by CCSCO on Nov 18, 2014 11:42:43 GMT -5
It should be Mars, the only solid planet among the 3.

Post by hodders on Nov 18, 2014 17:37:13 GMT -5
Got it, for another $1100.
MATT: $950
GREG: $870
CLEMENT: $1420

MATT: $700
GREG: $620

PENNSYLVANIA AVENUE
Alright Burton, how much is the rent going for these days?
A rather nice sum here, $1400.
And here's your question Greg:
Which of these websites is not one of the 10 most popular worldwide?
YouTube
Amazon
Baidu

Post by palmer7 on Nov 18, 2014 18:31:06 GMT -5
I've never even heard of Baidu, so I'll guess that.

You seem unsure, but one surety is you've just earned $1400!
MATT: $700
GREG: $620
CLEMENT: $2570
Amazon is incidentally #11 on the Alexa list. Let's roll onward:

And we're back to
BALTIC AVENUE
For $450 Greg:
347, 357, 367. Which of these is not a prime number?
|
|
|
|
Post by palmer7 on Nov 24, 2014 10:03:38 GMT -5
Well, I can add 3, 5, and 7 together to make 15, a number divisible by 3. So, I will say 357 is not a prime. (Also, don't we get some money for passing Go?)

|
|
|
Post by hodders on Nov 24, 2014 10:13:20 GMT -5
MATT: $900
GREG: $1270
CLEMENT: $2770
Right for another 450 bucks. Incidentally, you've each been credited $200 as we've passed GO, I forgot to mention that previously. Let's roll onward:

PENN. RAILROAD
We're on a Railroad so there's the possibility for a Hostile Takeover. I'll ask a toss-up on the buzzer, whoever answers correctly can pick a Monopoly and attempt to take it over by answering 2 or 3 questions correctly in a row. Fingers on buzzers:
Which 5 letter Spanish word is used to define a government led by the military?

Post by CCSCO on Nov 25, 2014 14:59:31 GMT -5
Junta?
|
|
|
|
Post by hodders on Nov 27, 2014 10:46:19 GMT -5
Junta is right! Now you have the right to take over one of Greg's Monopolies, the number of properties determines how many questions you need to answer correctly, and an incorrect answer at any point will cost you the rent on that property.
What's your pleasure?
|
|
|
|
Post by CCSCO on Nov 27, 2014 11:01:22 GMT -5
What properties are at stake?
|
|
|
|
Post by palmer7 on Nov 27, 2014 11:17:00 GMT -5
Well, it depends on which monopolies you have. I have the rest.
|
|
|
|
Post by hodders on Nov 27, 2014 18:55:04 GMT -5
You can choose any Monopoly which isn't your own to try and take over. So any that aren't the Red or Magenta monopolies can be attempted at.

I'll take Park Place and Boardwalk.

Post by hodders on Nov 28, 2014 12:27:41 GMT -5
Alright Clément, high penaties if you give any incorrect answers, but 2 correct answers will be potentially wealth-bringing. First question of 2:
Mozambique, Angola, Central African Republic. Which of these countries has French as an official language?
|
|
|
|
Post by CCSCO on Nov 28, 2014 12:59:00 GMT -5
That would be Central African Republic, as a former French colony.

Post by hodders on Nov 29, 2014 3:59:51 GMT -5
One down and one to go:
Amp, Kelvin, Newton. Which of these is NOT a base SI unit of measurement?
|
|
|
|
Post by CCSCO on Nov 29, 2014 5:27:46 GMT -5
I think it's the Amp.
|
|
|
|
Post by hodders on Nov 29, 2014 15:37:25 GMT -5
Oh Clément, it's Newton, so we take $2000 in rent and give it to Greg, tough break.
MATT: $900
GREG: $3270
CLEMENT: $770
And we roll onward:
