Now i know there are 2 common rules about the no parking space in monopoly. Which rule do you follow when you play?

I. Free space (Does nothing)
II. Jackpot (+$$)

I need answers because this is a pressing issue to me right now.

None.

If I'm playing with my little brothers, taxes and cash lost to cards always goes towards a jackpot. If its only older people playing, we generally have it do nothing so the game goes a tad faster and you don't suddenly get out of debt.

If you can't decide, you can always whip out the rule book and follow it (It does nothing).

None.

I believe the official rule is that Free Parking is just a resting point and nothing happens. The "jackpot" concept is generally a house rule.

I always do the former.

I've always played that it's jackpot...but I don't know how it started.

Well, the official rules do not entail a jackpot, and I was just wondering how many people use the jackpot as a house rule because I want to know whether this common house rule or the official rule is more popular.

I myself have always used the jackpot.

None.

I think the rules mention jackpot on free parking as an alternative rule.
And I normally play it as a jackpot. All fees and taxes go in the middle.

We consider Free Parking to be like the lottery.

Like winning the lottery...so basically just a jackpot? Or do you do it like "Payday"?

None.

Just here for the activity... well not really

I use it as jackpot where all the tax/fees goes, and it's a pain in the ass.

I find the game ends faster with jackpot free parking, because then hotels go up way sooner.

We use Free Parking as... Free parking. We don't have any jackpot, everything just goes to the bank. And we get 20000 when we pass start, and the double if we land on it.

I've seen monopoly and monopoly bound on the list, but never joined. I just don't think there is anything too the game, either you land on more unbought property than anyone else, or you don't. I might as well play a dice game where the winner is the highest roller.

Ouch, don't talk bad about monopoly if you're going to neglect strategy involved with player2player trading.

Vrael -- It is, and I could definitely use a company with a commitment to flexibility, quality, and customer satisfaction to provide effective solutions to dampness and humidity in my urban environment.

Vrael shouted: Idk, I was looking more for a dehumidifer company which maybe stands out as a beacon of relief amidst damp and unpredictable climates of bustling metropolises. Not sure Amazon qualifies

sounds like moisture control is often a pressing concern in your city

Vrael -- Maybe here on the StarEdit Network I could look through the Forums for some Introductions to people who care about the Topics of Dehumidifiers and Carpet Cleaning?
