Crazy UNO
this, from Jan Nickerson
Crazy UNO Rules
1. Someone else gives you a crazy uno name before you start playing. Generally people choose names that are amusing in some way. My family chooses insulting names such as Cat Litter since they find this amusing.
2. Once you all have been given your Uno name, noone may call you by your real name. If they do they have to pick up 2 cards. This includes between games and on breaks.
3. If someone starts to use a real name like yours, but catches themselves before the whole name is said, there is no penalty. i.e., Ja...,(Jan) Da... (Dad), Jam...(Jamie), Jen...(Jenna) and Mar...(Mary Jane). This includes not using any pet names you have for them or achronyms you commonly use like I use MJ for Mary Jane. Jenna says Dad not John.
4. You CAN jump in at any time when you have a card that exactly matches the card facing up being played. This means you can jump in when it is someone elses turn and play a Green 8, a Reverse Red, or a Wild Card Draw 4, etc. anytime you have a match regardless if it is your turn. If this happen when someone plays a matching Wild Card Draw 4, the person after them draws 8 cards unless they have another Wild Card Draw 4. Then they play that (out of turn) and the person next to them draws 12 cards. It gets Crazy when people keep playing matching Skips and Reverses thus changing whose turn it is a lot.
5. You may NOT play a Wild Card Draw 4 if it is your turn unless you are out of the color suit you are supposed to play. THE exception to this is that you can match a Wild Card Draw 4 and put another one on top it anytime you please.
Warning: This game is not for people who always play nice.
I could only find one mention of Crazy Uno on the Web: this from a discussion board.
