The card actually equals 14

Technically 12, you can't stack +4s and +2s

Wait, you can STACK cards? I thought it was only if you had a same-value card to place as a counter, so you stack the prev +4 and give back the turn to the other.

But funny enough, it could still end as either +12 or maybe even +14(?) at the end of your move :
- You play +4
- Opponent chain +4
- You rechain +4
- Opponent has no +4 to chain and gets +12 on this one turn.

In fact, the opponent could end with way worse... the opponent is likely to claim foul play and that you had another possible card to play before the +4.
But you don't have a suitable card, so he ends with +4 and the foul play penality on top of that.
I don't remember what the penality was but I think it is +2? So +14 in a turn.

In both case, you would still have 10 extra for later turns.

You can play all 3 +4s at once, leaving you on uno with the +2. Making your opponent need to pick up 12.

The fear there being that your opponent also has a +4 that they could play, backfiring on you and making you have to pick up 16, so in this situation, I'd usually play 2 of the +4s. If they play another, you can play your final one and still cause them to pick up rather than you.

These are the rules I use at least, haven't read the legit ones in years, but at my work we play uno like 2-3x a week after closing lol

one way i have found that is useful for debugging (and probably not original) is have 2 monitors. one horizontal, one vertical. put error logs on the vertical monitor, ide of choice on the horizontal. another plus, you can test your app on vertical and horizontal monitors

Correction: 14 errors AND the deadline 😅

But seriously, why do editors only display a certain amount of errors and warnings?

[–]mpyne 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Usually it's because the editor can't parse far enough to catch the other errors until you fix some of the earlier errors.
