Popular card game UNO has released a Twitter statement confirming the long-known but widely ignored rule that you cannot stack +4 or +2 cards, sending fans of the game into meltdown. Writing on their official Twitter account, UNO states: "If someone puts down a +4 card, you must draw 4 and your turn is skipped. You can’t put down a +2 to make the next person Draw 6. We know you’ve tried it. #UNO". [[twitterwidget||https://twitter.com/realUNOgame/status/1124720366130204672]] (I'm not going to lie, this is brand new information to me, who has clearly been mugged off by his mom, brother, and wife after being made to pick up 10 during a "friendly" game of cards at Christmas.) So the next time someone puts down a +4 card, you're either going to have to draw four cards or skip your turn. #TinyViolin Now, as any avid player of the game will know, stacking +4 and +2 cards is one of the most popular strategies out there to help get players closer to looking around the table with a smug look on face and proclaiming "Uno" - just like the arrogant dad from the commercial. <img class="wp-image-12512999" src="https://img.vt.co/2019/05/dc12d131-uno-1.jpg" alt="Uno cards" width="600" height="611" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: Mattel Games]] But despite many Twitter users questioning the rule, the people at UNO are sticking to their guns and shutting down any attempts at stacking: [[twitterwidget||https://twitter.com/realUNOgame/status/1125417157746147329]] [[twitterwidget||https://twitter.com/realUNOgame/status/1125128060578226178]] So now that it's officially been deemed rule-breaking, the internet has had a lot to say about it: [[twitterwidget||https://twitter.com/DivisionDeAriza/status/1126131127096414210]] [[twitterwidget||https://twitter.com/lilminyoon/status/1125074757949505537]] [[twitterwidget||https://twitter.com/absentstudent87/status/1124758279400431618]] [[twitterwidget||https://twitter.com/DlREWOLF/status/1125081579515199490]] [[twitterwidget||https://twitter.com/KarlousM/status/1125120668104839168]] [[twitterwidget||https://twitter.com/GeanniVersace/status/1125093210534158339]] [[twitterwidget||https://twitter.com/brokeymcpoverty/status/1125071262399832069]] In short, if the people get their way, the official rules don't really matter and you can go ahead stacking +4 and +2 cards like you've always done - just make sure that there are no players insistent on the rule book in the game.
