Title For City "monopoly" Name

Posted by Anonymous on 11/21/2008 at 12:37 PM ET 125 Points
We're in the process of creating a "Monopoly" game for the city of Louisville (KY). Louisville-opoly might be the obvious choice, but it's not too clever. Any ideas?

    You could also use any one of the nicknames for Louisville: Derby City, River City, Gateway to the South, Falls City, or the 'Ville (as in Derby-opoloy, or Ville-opoly).

    I did a quick search and found a lot of games ending in "opoly", including a "Make Your Own Opoly Game," and a fundraiser: "Your Town-opoly," so I'm wondering whether all these companies are infringing on the Monopoly mark, or if maybe it's okay to use "opoly."

    If you want to make sure you're not infringing on their trademark, I would check with an attorney. Also, the Hasbro Customer Service # for Monopoly (and other games) is 888-836-7025, if you'd like to call and talk to them.
