Monopoly: The World Edition - Canada needs votes
Canadian_Mind @ Thu Jan 24, 2008 7:20 pm
They are creating a new Global edition of the game Monopoly. From the site:
$1:
Have your say in the world’s first global Monopoly!
I’m creating the world’s first global Monopoly so I want to know what your favourite cities are!
I’ve pre-selected 68 great cities for you to choose from but you can nominate any other city you want – these are known as Wildcard cities.
Vote for your top 10 cities… and keep voting every day!
The 20 pre-selected cities with the highest worldwide votes on February 29 2008 will make it onto the board. Plus, you will have from March 1 to March 9 2008 to vote on the most nominated Wildcard cities. Only the top two will make it on the board.

Lets get a few Canadian cities on the board. Montreal, Toronto and Vancouver are #'s 17-22-23 in voting right now. We need to get them into the top 20 to guarantee a spot on the board. When you look at the leader board, you'll find each top 20 city is in a colour group which matches what the colour on the board they'll be... The higher the better.
Vote Here
If you want to be a patriotic Canadian and support your national visibility, vote for our big three, then use your remaining 7 votes on each of the lowest ranking cities. You don't have to use the map to vote, you can go to the leader board and click on each city listed, which brings up the "add to my city list" link... basically the vote button.
Once you've chosen the cities you want to vote for, you click the actual "vote" button in the "my cities" list, and after registering, viola! You've hopefully bumped each of our cities up a rank.
And remember, vote every day!
Edit - botched the link job, shoulda checked that.
