Turn order
How to use it at your party
- Type the names of everyone who brought a gift. Copy-paste from the invite list works too.
- Press Draw turn order. Didn't like the result? Drawing again is fair too, but agree on that before anyone sees the list.
- Open TV mode so the room can see whose turn it is, or let everyone scan the QR code.
- Press Next player after each turn. The timer restarts automatically.
Playing the dice version instead? The online dice game has player turns built in. For the rules, see the rules generator.
FAQ
How do I randomly pick the order for White Elephant?
Type everyone's names (or just the number of players) and press Draw turn order. The list is shuffled with your browser's cryptographic random generator, so every order is equally likely.
How do I show the order to everyone?
Put this page on a TV with TV mode, or let guests scan the QR code. The link includes the whole order, so everyone's phone shows the same list without any account.
Is this better than paper numbers?
It's faster for big or virtual groups, and nobody loses their ticket. For in-person parties, many hosts still like paper. Print our free number tickets instead.
What's the turn timer for?
It stops long debates. Set 30–60 seconds per turn and press Next player; the timer restarts for each new player and buzzes when time is up.
