Preparation
Start of the round
End of the run
The first person to complete the totem must take hold of the barrel and yell "Boarding!" The handler who read/described the totem pole will turn the card over to check the composition. If it turns out to be correct the player will win a nugget.
If the totem pole is wrong the player who shouted "To the boarding" will have to pay a lien by putting 2 nuggets of his or her own back into the initial pile. If the player has no nuggets he will accumulate a debt which he will pay off as soon as he has earned them by playing.
The prize nugget will then go to the player who has placed the most correct items, even if he has not completed the totem pole because it was interrupted by his partner's shout. In case of a tie between two or more players each will be entitled to one nugget. If no one has completed the totem pole a new round will proceed.
End of the game
Whoever, after finishing the "Totem" cards, has collected the most nuggets wins.
