Board Games
Barmymoo:
I've played Cards Against Humanity with various of the party attendees, but I'm not sure it'd be right for the particular group coming to this party - many of them haven't met each other yet, and there are varying senses of humour.
Game and Watch Forever:
Yeah... that has potential to go really poorly.... or really well. :evil:
My big issue with Monopoly is that the game has potential to outstay its welcome, has player elimination, and ends often in a two player roll-off to see who can avoid the other's properties until one finally bleeds the other dry. That's at least in my (admittedly limited) experience. I do have fun with it, but as ev4n said, there's other games I'd rather play.
Unfortunately, none of what I said actually helps with what you asked, May. :-\ Is your interest strictly in Monopoly for now or are you interested in other games that work in party environments as well?
Barmymoo:
Both to be honest. I was thinking about getting a few classic board games, and saw the Birmingham Monopoly and greatly coveted it.
The Seldom Killer:
I generally find with Monopoly that a fixed time limit of an hour or two plus three rounds is a good way to limit tedium and acrimony. Have some anime or Boondocks to entertain any early eliminations.
Barmymoo:
I feel like adding the eliminated players to a support team for the remaining players could be fun. Monopoly by democracy/shouting match.
