My game group played Monopoly with a 3 minute timer per turn and it turned into a knife fight
Last Friday our group of 6 in Bakersfield tried a house rule where every turn got a 3 minute sand timer. I figured it would just speed things up. Instead, two guys started yelling over a trade for Baltic Avenue at minute 2, one flipped the board, and we lost the thimble under the couch for 20 minutes. Has anyone else tried timer rules on a game that is already built to make people mad, or did we just pick the worst possible test case?

The "knife fight" part got me because we had a similar thing with Uno last month. My cousin put a 30 second rule on draws and my uncle got so mad he threw his whole hand at the wall, and we still find cards under the fridge. Monopoly with a timer is just asking for trouble though, that game comes with anger built in already.
