Funny story: years ago I was on a trip with family that wasn't going so well because of bad weather and my sister buys a copy of Monopoly to pass the time. So unboxing that fresh new copy of Monopoly I got to read the rules for the first time and realized a few things:

Most people play the game incorrectly.
The game isn't actually all that long.
Some newer copies of the game ...show more

That's right. The reason Monopoly has such a bad reputation of taking so long is precisely because people don't play it correctly. The 2 common house rules that "ruin" the game is money on free parking (I never did this), and skipping auctions if someone doesn't want to buy a property (my family didn't do auctions, cause my sis and I didn't really know what those were).
I haven't played Monopoly for maybe 20 years. I think I would like to play it "properly", for the first time. But I would use the short rules, where game ends when only one player goes bankrupt.

Games I'm thinking of bringing:
-Arcs. A genre-defying space game. A very confrontational and "mean" game, looks like lots of fun!
-Catan, with the Atlantis variant added. Various hexes will slowly flood, came can end early if enough hexes go under water.
-Monopoly: Yes, I want to play this non-ironically. I haven't touched this for maybe 20+ years. Looking forward to playing it ...show more

Count me out for Monopoly lol. Arc sounds good. @Ed, if you are coming bring Power Grid, pls :)

Erin may be interested in learning monopoly. I also taught her codenames: pictures today.

I had someone reach out saying they are mostly interested in Catan. Not sure if they are coming out Saturday.

I picked up a couple games as well. Looking forward to seeing everyone tomorrow!
