Started playing last night and the first thing I did was try to buy the street I live on but found that it was already sold:grumpy:
I bought a race track but i am not telling anyone which one it is for fear of someone on here demolishing all the buildings that I have on it
My user name on it is thestig-13
 
Both of you I will be watching and you can say what the race track is because noone here will sabotage you. BTW, now that we have your username we can find out anyway.

EDIT: Apparently thestig-13 doesnt exist.
 
Thanks Legendary, lemme know how Im doing, i started in a small town and aparently cannot find any really daily profitable streets (more profit per-day then cost)
 
You need to find a nice long street tomorrow, it doesnt have to be anywhere near where you live, if the street is around 2mil and long, it will be profitable.

Just then I solde one of my streets for 1.2mil and built one green house before being charged 700k in some environmentally unfriendly governmental load of crap. I spend 1/4 of my streets worth on buildings and the other 1/4 on the government, not happy janne.
 
mhmm, I have a good idea on some long (6mi?) streets. I drove one today, inwhich I almost hit a deer doing 60+mph in the car (mtn pass) With the girl in the car, I felt SO bad.

I'll find a long one tomorow, and fill it with greenhouses :)

Cool Story Bro:tup:.

Yeah, always fill with green houses.

Tomorrow is looking mighty fine, my score will more than double, I will post pictures of the streets income when I put my final 2mil of green houses on it.
 
Sorry for the double post but this is a long one and I dont really want to edit it into the smaller above post.

I am writing this post as I finish my long road.

First off I receive this :).

CHANCE

You've just won an entrepreneur of the year award. M$ 500,000 cash has been deposted into your account. Congrats!!!!


That almost makes up for the 700k the game took off me in the first place...

After that I got a demolition permit which I discarded.

About 3/4 the way through building my street I am starting to worry that I will have too much money and that I will run out of building slots.

Around 7 houses later I received another one which I discarded.

Wow, because i'm writing this post as I finish my street, I am writing about ANOTHER demoltion card quite literally 2 houses after the previous one. This one I also discarded :D.

Ok, this is really annoying me now, I am not lying, 2 houses after the previous one I get the same card again, I'm thinkning that perhaps I will use this one. *Does not Discard*
I just deleted a green house on 'Cockburn St/Ave' for the hell of it.

Ahhh far out, I just got another permit to demolish 3 houses later. Its actually annoying me. I swear if I get another one I will scream!

I can see the end of the street aproaching and I have 241k!

My fears about the street being to short need not have been, I needed only 500k or so and I would have ran out of road :lol:.

Im glad the street is finished, now to get you guys some pictures.

Ok, my street is the black line, this street is actually around 20km from my house. It is super long and fetches me 22mil in rent, it has over 100 residential buildings, 1 park and 1 school. I am looking forward to tomorrow.
 
I just started, but I wish I read the green house part, first. :lol:

I'm playing as a6m5.

Oh don't worry, I read it and still put up giant buildings on my first st. >.< But I have not gotten my income from today yet so I'm awaiting to buy a new st. and sell the old's...

Speaking of, if anyone is interested in a great parcel of land, some will be available tomorrow.

Let the bidding begin!

And the bribes. :D

I wasn't joking, people. If anyone will have ~15M, I could part with a road or 2. Or three. One of which will yield 23M/day and there is still room to build...
 
:lol: This is hilarious.

I was just searching around, and just bough a wonderful and a bit long street for something like 3mil, and it is giving me a rent of around 10mil

Also, just sabotaged the 10th place player in my local ladder board. He just had 2 streets. I was a bit mean, and sabotaged the street he earns most of his money. Worse of all, there was only one block of space to put the sabotage building. I laugh so hard at it..

I just added you guys to my &#8220;Friends list&#8221;.

How does this sabotage thing work, exactly? I was given a park by a chance card. I read later that it protects from sabotaging, except I didn't know this at the time, so I didn't set the park on my most expensive street. :dunce:

i have zip right now. i think who ever pays me forgot today :( lol!
 
I take back everything I said. How can someone sabotage a street that is protected by a bonus building, against hazards and bulldozers? :confused:

Never the less, the street value was 9 mil and something, I sold it, and bought it again for 2 mil and something. Started re-housing again and, this time, I didn&#8217;t discard any bonus buildings.

The must funny fact, is that my street was sabotaged by the same person I sabotaged, though, he still has his sabotaged street, and I don&#8217;t :D

It&#8217;s important to have more than one bonus building in your street, to protect you from sabotaging and bulldozing, though, they seem to be vulnerable to bulldozing (what, I found weird).

If a player puts an hazard in your street, you won&#8217;t receive any income from it

The bonus building protects the street, but not itself. Demo the bonus/es, then place the hazard/s.

I couldn't wait to play it, so I just started another one in a different town. On this one, they gave me a park + stadium, so I guess that should help protect it more?

How do you set up a hazard? What protection does that give your street?

P.S. On this account, it's all green houses! :lol:

Yes, I seem to have learned that lesson the hard way

The hazards you earn from chance cards. You can only place it in other people’s streets, so they won’t earn any rent from that street.

Only for the first few days, though. After that, I suggest shifting over to the Polyhedron Plaza, followed by the Spear End Summit and finally the Monopoly Tower. I don't know about you, but I'm not real keen on placing 130M worth of Green Houses every night! (That's 2600 of them, btw :sick:)
 
Yeah, I noticed you guys talking about how time consuming it is, and you guys weren't kidding! On top of that, the site is still glitchy. :crazy:
 
I might have a street up for sale with tons of houses ready to go for a 'new-timer.' Assuming, I can sell a street and every house on it to another player?

If so, I just might purchase somebody else's street with houses that sells for around 5 million.

I think what we have here is a great way to sell and purchase streets with houses from each other to quickly advance to higher levels a lot more easily. Problem is, the 'first timers' do most of the work.
 
So I have set up a second account to work another town, right? Couldn't people use that to cheat? I'm not going to do it, and I hope none of you do it either, but can't you start another account, then give the stuff away to your main account?

It would be messed up, but I know there would be million people using that, once they catch onto it.

P.S. My second account is doing much better with only two streets, than my original with four streets. Also, by building more cheaper buildings, I'm getting more chance cards. I have only one bonus(a park) on my main account. My second account has three(two stadiums & a park).

I screwed up my beginning, and wanted to start over. I tried to create a new account, or a second account, and it wouldn't let me. Every time I went to the website, even logged in as a different MSN 'Member,' it recognized my first account and I couldn't start over.

What the HELL happened to this? I will give a reasoning in a sec, here is a pic of TB's and my street.




On my street my greenhouses were bringing in 190k each day in rent, now it says 50k and I am NOT happy.

Somehow I had 91k when I logged on this morning and I left it with 41k yesterday. Ontop of that whenever I log in a get a demolition card to remove a building or a hazard.
This is weird, does it have anything to do with this new blog entry?
Mr MONOPOLY is watching!
MONOPOLY City Streets is now picking up momentum. We hope you've noticed an improvement in gameplay and are enjoying building your property empires. Predictably the big cities once again saw the most action; New York, Paris, Hong Kong, London and Tokyo were the most popular choices but there are still millions of unclaimed streets out there.


At the reset we promised two things, 1) an improvement in site performance and 2) an implementation of checks to combat cheating. Over the weekend, the MONOPOLY City Streets development team has been watching play closely. We warned players against cheating and will be taking action over the next few days to identify and delete accounts we know to be suspect. Players will be disqualified NOT sent to jail, will not pass GO and will have their property and assets seized by the bank.


For the majority playing fairly, this means more opportunity to buy, build and negotiate - there's still everything to play for...

I'm confused:indiff:.

The last 100 posts on the blog have been about this, that means that they have done this update without making a blog for it. Shame on them, it is time for another restart and I can almost guarantee it will happen if they want the game to work. The thing is, now that all the cheaters have 100's of billions (they cant get rid of all the cheaters) the other people using a legit strategy like us have been penalised and we will never be able to catch up to the cheaters. Furthermore, the inexperienced new players who only bought cheap streets will surpass us. Basically what the creators of the game have done is let the cheaters AND the inexperienced surpass the people actually playing the game properly, I feel cheated. If on the next restart (if there is one) something happens again like this, I will seriously consider dropping this game altogther. The sheer amount of hours everyone together has spent on this game building greenhouses is just a waste of time. What a loss.
 
Awwww dude, what a load of crap. I have 7mil in the bank account now. Fail palm.

EDIT: I will not spend any of my money until I know what to do...this is rigged.
