The Queen of Marvin Gardens

Diane had no patience for board games and would usually just go through the motions in the hope she’d be the first knocked out. Monopoly, however, presented a special challenge: it took so long to finish, and all of the losing usually happened near the end. Here she focussed on the long game, and did whatever she could to prevent people from getting the streets they needed to complete a set. Her strategy was to convince as many people as possible to hate this game as much as she, so that one day she’d never have to play it again.
