    Also that’s not how the reverse card works in official Uno rules. It simply changes direction. You can’t reverse a penalty like a +2.

      Which is a shame. I prefer alternate rules which change the plus cards rules to allow plays such as more +2’s added on top, color appropriate skips and reverses, wild cards and +4’s.

      Wild cards simply pass the draw to the next player. Basically every face card can be used to counter draw cards, though usually by adding more danger. It just adds a level of skill and planning over a game where getting randomed by a +2 or +4 is just a loss.

        Well… Yeah. Otherwise they wouldn’t ask me for a credit card for a free trial of a service. It’s always been obvious that that’s their aim, refusing a single use credit card isn’t some big “gotcha” moment here. Free trials only exist anymore in order to steal money at the end of the trial period, counting on the user forgetting to cancel. This is a known quantity.

          You could argue that the credit card could be used to prevent opening a new account as soon as the trial expires.

          This is bullshit, but that’s what I would say if i needed to defend douchebag business practices.

          That and they don’t want to spend money on someone who has no ability to pay in the first place.
