... This is my2ndattempt at a Fortune Street Forum Game.
Basically, the goal of Fortune Street is to acquire an X amount of Net Worth and return to the Bank. You help achieve this goal by buying and improving on shops, collecting the profits from your opponents landing on your shops, collecting suits and returning to the bank, and investing in stocks.
Or if reading all that turns you off, I'll give you info on the fly and I'll explain as well as I can.
If you're interested, I need a few things from you when you join:
A preferred Net Worth Goal: somewhere between 8000-15000g.
To be able to make a move within 48 Hours whenever I ask you to. There will be consequences if you fail...
Something/one to represent you on the board - I'd like it if you'd Link a pic. I don't care who you want to be and it's not required, but unless you want a Colored arrow to be your token...
And on that note, a Color to call your own; You can't take Black or White, though.
Something else I should ask for?
I hope for expedient replies. even just to berate me :|
Ah, and I'm looking for 4 players only. Something I forgot... ^^'

The Board you're playing: Vets of Fortune Street will likely recognize it:
It's the Castle Trodain Board. The Board Design, anyway.
The Spaces:
The Spaces with the Colored borders and the #ed Signs: The Shops; the #s is the property's shop value and the Colors signify which District the property is in.
The Spaces with Colored Suits: Pass by these to acquire the suit shown; LAND on it and you can draw a Venture Card!
The Space Marked "Bank": obviously. It's where you start, collect a Salary once you pass by it with each of the 4 suits, buy Stock when you pass by it, and end the game once you acquire the required Net Worth.
The ? Space: Venture Space; Land on it to draw a Venture Card!
The Star Space: Boon Space; The person who lands on this space gets 20% of any Sales ("rent" paid) as a bonus until his/her next turn.
The Moon: Take-a-Break Space: Your Shops close, and you can't make any sales (collect rent) on any of your Shops until your next turn.
The Space with the coins on top of a building: The Arcade! You get to play a game of Luck for prizes!

Movement: You can only move onto adjacent squares and once you move, you cannot turn around. However, if you Warp somewhere, or if you draw a Venture card allowing you to, you can move in any direction you like.
Investing: When you land on one of your own properties, you can spend Gold to improve the Shop Value and the Shop Price(Rent) of any property you own, and the Stock Value of its District.
About Venture Cards: They're arranged in a 8X8 grid, and they contain many surprises... unless you read this. Also, if you collect the cards in a row - Horizontally, Vertically, or Diagonally - You get Gold Bonuses starting with the 4th in-a-row.
About Stocks (This might take a while): They're basically pieces of paper signifying partial ownership in a District. They increase in value when Their Shop's value increases and sometimes when enough stocks are bought in a turn.
Also, if someone shops(pays "rent") in a district where someone owns stock, all stock holders in said district split a 20% cut. How big the split depends on what % of the total stock sold the player owns.
You can also Sell stock in case you're cash-strapped or just if you want that new property badly. If you sell enough of them in a single turn, you might LOWER the stock prices, and thus the stock value.
Actions you can take before you Roll:
Auction off one of your properties, with the seller getting the highest bid.
Trade Properties, or Trade Money for Properties.
Sell Stock.
Oh, and if you spend more gold than you have and are forced to sell a shop, you only get 75% of its current value back in Gold.
