OK, I've decided, since the Oxford monopoly is a bit crap in my opinion to make my own Oxford University monopoly. Yes - you too can charge huge rents for living in St Johns :) I've decided on colleges for streets (duh), and libraries for stations. Here is my first suggestion for layout - what do you reckon?

1) Spell the colleges correctly!

2) Ditch the Hooke library (it's a lending library, not quite the same as the others), split the Bod into the Old and New Bod.

3) Free parking, jail and Go should be relabelled, but I'm not sure as what. Hall food, lectures (Go to lectures, go directly to lectures, do not pass Go, do not collect student loan), student loan?

1) I'll make more effort when I do it properly :)

2) Fair enough - the Hooke was a bit of a random choice really cos I ran out of librarys at 3. I didn't know the Bod was split though.

3) Hmmm. Not a bad idea actually. I hadn't thought of renaming the non property squares but that could be quite fun too...

I have a theory that this si something that'll be easier to edit in SVG than GIF, since you want to be able to change the text around... Therefore I have knocked together the beginnings of an SVG ‘Oxopoly’ board (http://www.alleged.org.uk/pdc/2002/oxopoly/).

Neat :) Your's looks like an actual board, as opposed to my screen grab from excel!
