HOW TO PLAY
1

Before midnight, give each guest a blank card to write one lighthearted prediction for the upcoming year and seal it in an envelope.

2

Collect all the envelopes into a bowl without revealing who wrote which one.

3

At set intervals throughout the evening, draw one envelope and read the prediction aloud for everyone to guess the author.

4

The named guest reveals themselves and can share why they made that prediction.

5

Save the final envelope to open right after the midnight countdown as the last prediction of the old year.
