How do you keep track that something has been stolen 3 times?  If a lot of
people are involved, it could get quite confusing.  Of course, I presume you
have some experience in this, and I should just trust that you know what your
doing. :)  But.. just in case, I thought I would suggest stickers.  Each time
something is stolen, it gets a sticker.  Three stickers and its done.

Stickers are fine if you don't trust the players.

But unless you have 60 people playing in one game or something, it's not a
problem to keep track and stickers are overkill. The person who stole it the
third time (who presumably plotted carefully to get that outcome, I know it's
never an accident when I achieve it (1)) is going to let you know, vehemently
and gleefully, and there will be enough people to corroborate it that there
won't be any doubt.

I see no need for stickers here, in my view, introduction of stickers suggests
we're not a big happy family.

(...) So, now I am starting to prepare for Brickfest, and I am rereading some threads (in case anyone wonders why I am posting this a month later).
