BrickFest 2004 Announces Dirty Brickster Event

Dirty Brickster is a fun and exciting event where each participant
contributes an unopened LEGO Related Item worth approximately $10.00 in
value. Each contribution is wrapped in gift-wrap or some substitute to hide
the item among all the other contributions. Each participant receives a
number for each contribution and the selection process starts with the person
who has the number "1".

When your number is called you have two choices to make; (1) you can select a
wrapped object from the pile and open it for all to see or (2) you can elect
to "steal" one of the already opened packages. This last choice gives the
game its name. If you have taken your turn and someone steals your choice
from you, you repeat your turn selecting from the pile or an opened package.
Each  LEGO Related Item can be stolen 3 times before it is no longer
available to be stolen again.

This leads to some strategy and contributes to the overall fun for the group.
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. This might lead to a final round of
stealing and trading of packages ending only when everyone is satisfied or
all packages have been stolen three times.

So, if you would like to participate, bring along a LEGO Related Item worth
about $10.00 in value and watch the schedule for date and time. We hope to
hold this event on the second floor either in the meeting room or the lobby
near the train display, but the location is tentative at this time.
Non- participants are encouraged to watch, but as always, no wagering.

Special Events Coordinator,

Todd Thuma


I have never participated in Dirty Brickster, but I sounds like a ton of fun.
I just hope I don't get stuck with a Click-It's set! ;)
And I sure hope lots of people remember to bring something so they can play this
game.  If you miss it you might not get another chance to play it until next
BrickFest.
