From the rules page under Buy In:
(Bitnopoly charges a 5% service fee for every Bit Points game that is played. This is done when the game starts and is taken from the buy in.)
There is also a 3% withdraw processing fee when you cash out since this does require (for now) a bit of manual work on my part to ensure everything is secure/safe and no abuse is going on.

We are testing now, so should be back up within 48 hours. thanks for your patience
Nice, can't wait. With the new changes that make the rules the same as traditional monopoly, I'll definitely be down to play for some real BTC. Where does the site take its cut?

Thanks again for all the feedback. I'm going to be taking the site offline again shortly to address all of these issues and relaunch as soon as possible. This has been a great few days test run. Here are the planned changes:
- Players all start with 1500 in their bank account
- Bank has unlimited funds
- Payments from bank are set amounts, not % based as they are now
- Properties can be mtged and computers/servers can be sold back to the bank
- animations of piece movements
- adding game list
- fix inactivity alerts
- various bug fixes and app crashes
UPDATE: Site has been taken offline.

Can't wait! I had good luck getting people to join a game yesterday by recruiting in coinchat, but unfortunately the game crashed when I was in the middle of it.

I agree with jacktarli so much that I have funded my Bitnopoly account with 1BTC
by the way still waiting for 1 player to start a 4 way game.

Yes it is really waiting forever. I have started a game and while I was waiting I started cruising trough this forum, meanwhile someone joined my game and I timed out because I was still on the forum 
At least it was not for real BTC.
This site is definitely unique and has potential in my eyes but you need to get more players somehow. Promote your site on bitvisitor or pay for signatures on this forum. People will like to see something different than spinning wheels and betting high, low and you have made this change.
If you don't mind me asking how do YOU profit from all this?

Oh yes, it's waiting forever.

This was a good idea. Not as colorful(yet?) as I would have expected. We just can't get away from Dice rolling Bitcoin games can we.
Right now the game works such that you can use your "unlimited" bankroll of fun points or bit points while playing in a game. At first I thought this would make for the most interesting games because people could continue to rebuy bit points when they got low if they wanted to stay in a game and try and win the bank funds. However, especially with fun points with no real value, the game feels a bit nebulous with no clear meaning because you cant see how many FP your opponent has.
Do you guys think it makes sense to change it so that the game works by taking the buy in and putting 50% into bank funds and the other 50% into your own balance to be used for buying properties, etc? Then the players have a limited amount of points to spend within a particular game based on the buy in amount.

Personally I think a check box would be better to have in enabled or not. Doing something like that just makes in unfair for people who dont have more btc or fp to put into the game. Id rather a fixed amount and thats it. maybe a checkbox to enable/disable it for more customized games. Also maybe more the 4player games and also 3player games.The last feature would be a quick join button if you just want to play
Also a games list would be nice aswell and a friends list so that I can play with people I want to.
Also there is a freenode channel for it, #bitcoin-monopoly
It used to be used for bitcoin monopoly where we would just all play and bet on who would win.
Also, you might want to have the buy-in go into players' balances, as this is quite misleading. We basically both had 0 balance and couldn't do anything. Quite buggy, needs improvement, but the site has potential.
Game is broken, it doesn't start. I'm in Players: 3 of 4 while the fourth person is in Players: 1 of 4. Same settings.
This happens all the time - the 4th player gets matched into it's own lobby. Only happens when playing with real BTC.

Good thing it was for Fun Points. Site crashed and the game timed out.
Was enjoying that.
