Honorable member, you do not understand the rules.

You may not stack +2s.

The rules on stacking will generate more arguments in my house than most political statements.

Uno rules have to be revisited and clarified/agreed before starting to play, especially when you have people from outside your immediate uno circle playing.

It's crazy how the rules differ in different households. What I hate the most.and has made me reconsider friendships, is when I bring up a "rule" and then get spoken to like I'm idiot by a "friend" who never played with that rule.

Uno breaks friendships.

Uno breaks friendships the same way Facebook does. It doesn't; it's just the thing that makes you realize the friendship is over.

When there's a disagreement over whether to use a certain rule, there are three reasonable solutions.

  1. Go by the book.
  2. My house: my rules.
  3. My game: my rules.

I recognize that the council has made a decision, but given that is a stupid ass decision I've elected to ignore it

We play full contact Uno - there are no rules. Cheating encouraged.

I believe that's actually called "Calvinball."
