I would not be that excited about having my city on a board that gives the Mayfair square to Montreal.
Mayfair square? Which one is that? Presumably the same as the US Park Place. (You know that the original Monopoly board was based on Atlantic City, New Jersey, yes?)
The second is that Sydney likes to believe it is like New York, but really it is like San Francisco at most. Melbourne also likes to believe it is like New York, but it is more like Seattle. Adelaide likes to believe it is like Seattle, but it is more like Boston. Brisbane likes to believe it is like Des Moines. It is.
THAT is hysterically funny.
Even New York isn't much like New York any more, between Guliani and Bloomburg, and the Disnification of Times Square and the British MegaMusicals... *sigh*
