    The game "ghettopoly" is getting a lot of attention as a ghetto version of Monopoly.

    Has anyone thought about a Borg version of the game ? It could be a lot of fun.

    For example:

    1. All properties on the board would now be called "territories"

    2. The "banker" that handles the money will be called "the Society" and MUST be male.

    3. The "Jail" location would be renamed "Judicial Committee" and you could be sent there

    4. The starting space on the board will be renamed from "Go" to "Secular Job" ... you collect $200 each time you pass it.

    5. The game pieces will be changed from worldly things like racing cars to more appropriate things like four door cars and service bags. You don't choose the game piece .... it is assigned to you and you are thankful for having it.

    6. You no longer erect houses and hotels ... instead it's kingdom halls and assembly halls

    7. The terms "pay" and "payment" would be replaced by "donate" and "suggested contribution"

    8. The "Community Chest" cards would be renamed "Local Funds." The cards would consist of requests for donations and resolutions. Included would be cards for things like the visit of the CO and repairs to the KH. Any "resolution" cards must be agreed to by all regardless of the purpose. Any not agreeing to the resolution will be considered "marked" and not asked to play the next time.

    9. The "Chance" cards would be renamed "Theocratic Opportunites." You pay for the opportunity to move to another part of the board where the need is greater or to the Branch locations. The decision of where you move is made by the person playing "Society." However, you forfeit passing the Secular Job space and receiving any money.

    10. The object of the game is to make it last as long as possible with as little money as possible.

    11. The game ends when everyone loses his or her money except for one person. That person is obviously not spritual-minded and will be shunned and considered bad association during the next game.

    ANY OTHER IDEAS ???? THIS COULD BE FUN !!!

    You need "new light" cards to randomly change the rules while you're playing.

    LOL!! That's pretty funny! I'm sure more than one person here really could have used a "Get out of a JC free" card.

    There would be no banker. Players would collect "field service hours" to be exchanged for "Paradise Dollars" to be spent after Armageddon.
