I observed the game at BF/PDX but did not participate. Since I plan to this time, I would like to make sure I understand how it works. You wrote:

Of course, the person that draws the number “1” will also be the last to go and can chose either the last package in the pile or steal a package from one of the available opened packages.

Isn’t the person who draws the highest number the last to go, at least before another round? And if there are multiple rounds, I don’t see how they necessarily end with the guy who drew #1.

#1 gets a final chance to steal so that everyone gets at least one chance to
steal. #2 is the worst number...

I wonder if in a larger game it might work to have more than just #1 get
another turn at the end, say like 10% of the players so #2 also gets a 2nd
turn with more than 10 players, and #3 if more than 20 players.
