Ornament Exchange
Organized by: WVURunner
Date/Time: December 15th (Day 7) at 2pm
Location - Promenade Lounge
The ornament:
The ornament should be valued as close to $5 as is reasonable. It can be handmade or store bought. The gift should be wrapped before arriving to the party. Gift bags are OK.
The exchange:
1. Each guest who wishes to participate must contribute an ornament. Everyone sits or stands in roughly a circle around the pile of ornaments.
2. Each participating guest draws a number and holds onto that slip of paper.
3. On the first turn, the guest with paper slip #1 chooses an ornament, opens it, and all admire it.
4. On the second turn, the guest with paper slip #2 gets the choice of "stealing" any unwrapped ornament (#1's) or choosing a wrapped one. If #2 steals #1's ornament, then #1 must open a wrapped ornament.
5. On the third turn, the guest with paper slip #3 gets the choice of "stealing" any unwrapped ornament (#1's or #2's) or choosing a wrapped one.
The game continues based on the following:
1. If an ornament is stolen from you, you can steal a ornament (within limits, described below), or open a wrapped one.
2. The turn proceeds until a wrapped ornament is chosen.
3. An ornament cannot be immediately stolen back from the guest who just stole it.
4. The fourth "owner" of an ornament gets to keep it. The gift is "dead" after it has been stolen three times.
5. "Owners" of "live and playable" ornaments must keep them visible and hold them up when requested.
6. The exchange ends when the last wrapped ornament is opened. Usually, guests are encouraged to perpetuate the ornament stealing as long as there are "live" ornaments, but no one is obligated to do this.
