Ah, Monopoly - the game that nobody plays the official way.

There have been bunches of custom rules created over the years - money placed on Free Parking, starting with only $500, et cetera. And almost everybody plays with at least one of them.

Some of these rules make sense, but others are quite ridiculous - for example, getting out of Jail free would involve starting at Free Parking instead.

Create some of your own ridiculous rules.

I'll start:

Rolling doubles three times will land you in Jail, but rolling them a fourth time will get you right back out.
 
Owning both Boardwalk and Park place would give you full ownership of Go, and thus you must pay when anyone passes Go. Including when people go to jail.
 
Except the card reads "Do NOT pass GO, do NOT collect $200"

My rules for Jail

To get out of jail, you must roll double 1s or 6s or pay $1000. After five turns in Jail, you're automatically free (move to Just Visiting before rolling). "Get out of Jail" cards are redeemable for that amount and may also be used to pay for landing on another's space.
 
Landing exactly on Go requires you to go to Jail with a $200 fine (after you collect the $200). This $200 is placed on a kitty for the next person that lands on Go To Jail.
 
Stealing $200 while passing Go even though you're at some point when you shouldn't collect the money will force you to forfeit one of your properties.

this, but with Mediterranean Avenue instead since it's on the other side of Go.

Hey, why'd they change the tax squares? Berfore Income Tax was 10% or $200, now it's only $200. And Luxury Tax was $75, now $100.

Probably to reduce the number of bills being exchanged.

And nobody was using the 10% rule properly, I'm guessing, so they just decided to get rid of it. 10% is 10% of your net worth, not your cash.

Meaning that if you own, say, Kentucky Avenue ($220), you need to pay $22 in income tax for that property.
