CRAZY CHIMNEYS
Objective: Direct the good presents to fall into your stocking and keep the bad ‘presents’ away!
SETUP:
1. This game is split into 4 rounds lasting up to 48 hours each, with 4 sets of presents being dropped down the chimney.
2. Before the game, players will choose which Role they will take. Players must come to a consensus, otherwise it will be determined randomly.
3. The stockings will be in alphabetical order. Thus, ordered as follows:
Christian_ Ryan_Jambe Wileycoyote Zinger
4. There are four sections of the chimneys: Top, Upper-Middle, Lower-Middle, and Bottom. Each player will take each section once during the game.
GAMEPLAY:
1. For each round, the dealer will reveal Four presents, and the spots they will be starting at the top of the chimneys. These prizes can be positive or negative, but the overall game will have a positive sum of prizes.
2. Each player will privately receive a chimney block through mail.
3. Players will elect to install their chimney block one of four ways; DEFAULT, INVERTED, BACKWARD, or BACKWARD-INVERTED.

e. BACKWARDS-INVERTED = Rotate the block via both axis:

4. At the end of the round, the dealer will look at all installations, and the presents will follow the chimneys down to the stocking at the end of the path, and that player receives that present.
5. The dealer will NOT reveal which present you received until the end of the game. No peeking!
ENDGAME:
1. After all four rounds are played, the dealer will reveal privately what presents each player received.
2. Any rewards and penalties will automatically be calculated into your tournament bank account.
INACTIVITY:
1. If a player does not mail me a configuration, then that player will install their chimney in the DEFAULT configuration.
2. If a player is inactive and receives a prize, that prize misses the stocking and falls into the fire. If the inactive player receives a penalty from that round, then rest assured that the penalty will fall safely into their stocking!
