Cards n' Roving Peoples!

All players are currently facing to the right. Your moves will be determined by 2d6 (Broom), but you may choose to use only 1d6. Please specify if that is what you want to do. You may also specify not to buy property after your move. Any cards you want to use must be declared before you move.

The blue shaded spaces are all available for sale. Once they are bought, their colours will change as follows: Purvis - White, Dormio - Yellow, Stuffman - Green, Affinity - Red. The larger spaces count as 2 spaces when moving through them.

Red on the stock market listing means it went up by the adjustment amount, green means drop. When buying shares, the decimals will round up. When selling shares, the decimals will round down.

[Hello Purvis]

Roit. I'll move 1d6, and buy 3000 shares of Yatagarasu power. I'll also pick up whatever property I land on if possible.

[Dormio Ergo Sum]

I suppose I'll roll 2d6 (broom), buy 2000 shares in Yakumo Logistics, 500 shares in Bunbunmaru, and buy a property if I land on one.

[Pesco]

I suppose I'll roll 2d6 (broom), buy 2000 shares in Yakumo Logistics, 500 shares in Bunbunmaru, and buy a property if I land on one.

2000 Yakumo Logistics = 159400
500 Bunbunmaru = 155000

You don't have enough in Bank to buy 500 Bunbunmaru after 2000 Yakumo Logistics.

[Dormio Ergo Sum]

Hurr, misread Bunbunmaru price.
Cancel the Bunbunmaru order.

[Pesco]

Board so far
[attach=1]

This is just so we can get the hang of things. I'd prefer to just do one update after all 4 players have moved, but sometimes (in the case of events and cards used) updates must come between player turns. Hanged Hourai and Roukan are co-GMs and they'll be working hard to keep everything up to date every step of the way.

Edit: FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF I forgot my own game mechanics. It's Saturday and you can't buy shares on Saturday.

[Hello Purvis]

Oh hey, I read weekday as weekend! Yay!

Edit: What'd I buy? =3

[Dormio Ergo Sum]

What determines what direction we go in?
Like why did Purvis branch off to the right while I kept going up?

[Stuffman]

What determines what direction we go in?
Like why did Purvis branch off to the right while I kept going up?

I am also confused about this.

Regardless, move 2d6, buy.

Edit: Also requesting Purvis get a color different from event squares for ease of viewing.

[Affinity]

Roll 1d6, buy...

[Pesco]

What determines what direction we go in?

You'll move in the direction most favourable to yourself. But you won't take the same route more than twice in a row to prevent going in a closed loop. If you land exactly on a junction, you can pick your own route.

Oh hey, I read weekday as weekend! Yay!

Edit: What'd I buy? =3

You bought a large plot. If you roll a 1, you can build on it with your structure cards (Kappa or SDM).

Stupid copypasta giving you guys 300k faith. Fixed it now.

[Hello Purvis]

Yeah, but this is Monopoly; it's gotta have a name or summat!

[Stuffman]

I propose whoever buys them first gets to name the property.

[Pesco]

The basic names are either For Sale or <Player>'s Turf. I suppose if you want to name them, I'll need to add labels and that's :effort:.

[Stuffman]

Do we need to post turns in order, or can we simply post them ahead of time to be performed once our turn comes up?

Also, the board does not seem to indicate the rank of each property. Is it generated when we land on it?

[Dormio Ergo Sum]

Gddmt.
Figures Momiji decides to spawn right in front of me.

Do we need to post turns in order, or can we simply post them ahead of time to be performed once our turn comes up?

EDIT: Also, I really don't like Purvis' new color. I can't actually tell his color apart from the unowned color.
Yay, dichromacy.

[Pesco]

You can post ahead of time. Presetting some basic instructions for us means we don't have to wait as well. I said in the info thread that I will assume you will always buy/upgrade after every move. As of now, it's only the move dice size and maybe using Tewi dice that matters. The only real reason to post in turn order is if someone else uses a card on you and you want to respond.

If you want preset instructions for us do something like this:

Repeat for 10 turns
Move dice: 1d6
Auto-buy/upgrade: No
Buy xxx of <Share> when price is yyy. Sell xxx of <Share> when price is yyy
Draw zzz when passing an ATM

Plot ranks are a hidden variable, but you can work it out from how much it cost you to buy the property.

You're on a Broom. Momiji won't do anything to you. If you do meet her, you'll just knock her away until she spawns again. Only if your max move dice was 1d6 then Momiji can bite you.

What colour should I use for Purv then? Grey?

[Stuffman]

Right-o.
Use Tewi Dice to move to that big plot right next to me.

[Dormio Ergo Sum]

Black? Iunno.

So does that mean I keep my broom?
If so, for the next turn:
2d6
Buy whatever I land on

[Pesco]

Can't use black because I need to be able to put text in any big plots he builds on. Big plot structures don't get a new sprite for different house levels so I have to indicate it somehow.

Right-o.
Use Tewi Dice to move to that big plot right next to me.

You want a 1 or 2?

[Dormio Ergo Sum]

What about peach colored?

[Stuffman]

1. Forgot they were two spaces, sorry.

I'm going to sleep, so here's my preferences for the turn after this one:
- Move 1d6
- Buy 3000 shares each of the three cheapest stocks
- If I roll a 1, deploy Kappa Research Lab

[Affinity]

I want my plot name to be Aki Farms or something.

Well, use Tewi Dice to get a 6, buy the property, and if we are allowed to buy stocks, buy 1000 Voile (unless it's a weekend).  Nazrin is mine to hold.

[Hello Purvis]

Move 1d6, buy the property if I can, buy aforementioned stocks if it's open.

[Pesco]

[attach=1]

Just a reminder, if you PASS an ATM (the $ icon) you can draw or deposit money. So if you are coming up to one, you can prepare orders for how much you want to move between your cash and bank.

[attach=2]

It is now Monday and you can buy shares. Your available funds for share trading is whatever is in your bank.

[Hello Purvis]

Third verse, same as the first.

[Affinity]

Roll 1d6, buy property, buy 800 shares on Nitori Electronics, 500 on Voile, 200 on .  Can I get to Nazrin if I get a lucky roll?

[Pesco]

Roll 1d6, buy property, buy 800 shares on Nitori Electronics, 500 on Voile, 200 on .  Can I get to Nazrin if I get a lucky roll?

Maybe. Landing on the Card space would help ensure you go down that way. And 200 on?

[Affinity]

Whoops, my bad.  Cancel that 200.

[Hanged Hourai]

It doesn't mention these in my notes, but in what way are we to keep track of what stocks each person has?
