[quote=SMH]The Scottie dog has a new nemesis in Monopoly after fans voted in an online contest to add a cat token to the property trading game, replacing the iron, toy maker Hasbro Inc. announced on Wednesday.
"I think there were a lot of cat lovers in the world that reached out and voted," said Jonathan Berkowitz, vice president for Hasbro gaming marketing.
The results were not entirely surprising to animal lovers.[/quote]

To be honest it was close. I'm just glad Battleship is safe.

I like the shoe. The thimble is the most boring design ever.
I never understood the monopoly tokens. The first time I played it I thought that my friend lost the original tokens and just used some random figurines he had.

[quote=Commenter]The whole point previously was that you had 4 tokens representing wealthy class (top hat, car, ship and scottie dog) and 4 representing the working class (iron, wheelbarrow, thimble and laceless boot).
Now they've replaced one of the working class tokens with a token from the wealthy class (a blinged up cat). They've thrown the balance out, and it will never be the same again.[/quote]

[QUOTE=Hell-met;39501568]the fuck

thank god the thimble survived
The ship and the iron were always my favorites. I'd go with the thimble as well if those two were already taken. But the chances of all three being taken were nonexistent.

I like the Thimble. Mainly because in 6th grade the SexEd teacher told me a thimble full of my cum is enough to repopulate the entire world, if each one were to have a kid
Thank God, the shoe is safe.

Not like Hasbro are the first to change the pieces.

At least it was saved though.
Battleship is always the best piece.
