Another fun game to share, and perhaps this will inspire others to try this out.
Recently, my wife and I played Monopoly with another couple. I decided to predict the game results from the start using the first roll of the dice. In the end, it actually worked, with the final scores appearing in the order as predicted from the beginning.
The process was as follows:
Each player threw the dice to see who would go first. Here are the throws:
Player A: 8 (which equals Kun, earth)
Player B: 6 (which equals Kan, water)
Player C: 8 (which equals Kun, earth)
Player D: 10 (which reduces to 2 for Dui, lake)
Given that it was late evening, it meant that Water energy is the strongest, and that therefore player B would be most supported and win, followed by player D, metal. Players A and C, both with Earth would come in last.
After almost three hours, player D decided to end the game, so we counted it all up, and the results were:
1st - player B with $4,878
2nd - player D with $4,392
3rd - player C with $3,400
4th - player A with $2,827
While this is fun and all, it also suggests a lot about timing and hidden influences, such as the first step in an endeavor, and its subsequent influence on how something will develop as a result. After all, not all endeavors turn out the same for everyone.
I truly hope you all have enjoyed reading this, and that your insights will be even more beneficial and helpful to all.
