Gift Swap Game
For making the F6 of the Genius Game, each of you will receive a wonderful gift!
The game begins with each player receiving one of the following gifts:
Gift #0
Gift #1
Gift #2
Gift #3
Gift #4
Gift #5
The possible items inside each gift are as follows:
(nothing, 1 garnet, 2 garnets, 3 garnets, 4 garnets, 5 garnets + 2 tokens of life)
Every player will secretly receive one of these Gifts, and also receive a unique clue regarding the number of garnets each gift contains. This is when the gift swapping will begin!
There will be 3 rounds, each around 15-20 minutes where you may trade gifts with someone. If you are both in the main room, ping the dealer, and ask to swap, you will trade gifts - everyone in the main hall will see, but your swap will not be announced publicly.
There are three stipulations regarding trading.
-You are allowed to trade gifts with multiple people in one round.
-You may only trade gifts with someone you have not already traded with yet in the entire game.
-If you choose not to trade during a round, the amount of garnets in the gift you are holding will decrease by 2.
-If you choose not trade during a round and your gift has at least one token of life in it, the ToLs in your gift will decrease by one
The player who at the very end of the third round opens any gift with tokens of life will be the winner.
Any player who opens a gift that has nothing will be elimination candidate and the loser.
====================================================================
You may also buy the following by going to incinerator, pinging the dealer, and saying "I buy Item X".
Item 1: 3 garnets - A clue regarding Gift #4
Item 2 : 4 garnets - A no-trade pass - allows you to no trade for one round without the garnets in your gift decreasing

Gift Exchange
In gift exchange, each player will be given a gift numbered 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6. Each player will also receive a clue numbered from 1 to 6.
The gifts have the following secret contents:
2 tokens of life, 4 garnets 5 garnets 3 garnets 2 garnets 1 garnets 0 garnets
Each clue will give players information about each gift.
During a round, each player can make a up to two trades. These trades will not be declared. Each round will last 24 hours.
You will submit in the following format:
Priority Trade: Player 2
Normal Trade: Player 1
You may submit a Normal Trade without a Priority Trade or a Priority Trade without a Normal Trade.
You will trade with someone if you write each other's names under the same trade type. All priority trades will take place before normal trades.
You will only know who you successfully traded with in a round.
Once you swap gifts with a player, you may not trade with them again for the rest of the main match.
You may choose not to trade your gift. However, there are penalties for not trading:
If your gift has garnets and you do not trade, two garnets will be destroyed in that gift.
If your gift has a token of life and you do not trade, a token of life in the gift will also be destroyed.
After three rounds, you will open your gifts.
The player who opens a gift containing at least one token of life will be considered the match winner, and receive as many TOLs as are in that box. If no boxes contain tokens of life when they are opened, the player who opened the box containing the most garnets will receive a TOL and be MM winner. A box cannot contain negative garnets.
Any player who open an empty box will be considered to be last place and be E.C.
If there is a tie for Elimination Candidate, then the winner(s) will determine who will be the E.C. If there are multiple winners, there will be a vote. If there is a tie (E.C cannot be determined), then the winners will be stripped of their tokens of life and a random ex-winner will be the E.C.
You will not know the number and size of the gift you received, only who you received it from.
If all boxes are empty 
at the end of the mm, whoever is holding the box that originally had zero garnets is E.C. and no one gets a t.o.l.
