About the event

Omaha Builders' White Elephant Backlog* Exchange (and Meetup)
In conjunction with our normal HobbyTown Omaha Build Night, I'll be running a white elephant gift exchange!

YOU WILL NOT BE ALLOWED TO PARTICIPATE IF YOU DO NOT FOLLOW THE RULES!!!

RULES
1. To participate, you must bring a WRAPPED gift from your backlog* to donate to the gift pool.
(*Gifts don't actually have to be from your backlog; new items are acceptable.)

2. Gifts do not have to be model kits**, but must be related to model building: tools, decals, action bases, paints, etc.
** MODEL KITS MUST BE GUNDAM OR BANDAI SNAP-TOGETHER KITS

3. Gift Cards from HobbyTown are acceptable as last minute ideas. (But only from HobbyTown. Be respectful to our hosts!)

4. Gifts should have a retail value of at least $25. (There is no max limit.)

5. More than 1 item may be combined to form your gift. (For example 3 sets of $10 markers are an acceptable gift. 2- $15 models are acceptable. 5- $5 paints are acceptable.)

6. Previously opened items are acceptable, provided they are in GOOD CONDITION and all parts are accounted for.

How It Works:
1. I'll draw a name from a hat to pick the current player. The turn ends when a player opens a new gift.
2. The first player must open one gift from the gift pool.
3. The following players have the choice to open a new gift or steal a previous player's gift.
4. If your gift is stolen, you have the choice to open a new gift or steal someone else's gift.
5. A gift can not be stolen more than once per turn. (I.E. you have to wait for a future turn to steal back a gift that was just stolen from you.)
6. No more than 3 total gifts may be stolen in a single turn. If your gift is the 3rd one stolen during a turn, you must open a new gift.

After all players have taken their turns, player #1 has the option to steal someone's gift. Anyone who's gift is stolen can then steal someone else's gift. The 3-steal rule is NOT in effect during this phase, but a gift may still only be stolen one time. The game ends when someone chooses not to steal a gift.
