Does Playing Uno Online Make You A Loser?

Category:


Playing Uno online is one of the most fun social games on the Xbox 360. If you don’t know what Uno is click here. I’ve been playing Uno like mad lately in my quest to be ranked as one of the best Uno players ever!

My friend Bill thinks I’m a complete loser for playing Uno online with people that I don’t really know. He thinks Uno is meant to be played in the regular card form way and not digitally online. I think I’m a cool dude with a bad attitude. No, but really I think Uno was meant to be played online with people you don’t know all across the world. It’s a great way to talk to people from other countries and states and find out how much they really know about America and how little you really know about their country. America must really be the epicenter of all things in the world because these people know shit loads about us.

You play with up too four people at any given time and you even get to use a webcam. If it wasn’t for the webcams the game might be kind of boring. I’ve only been flashed once and luckily for me it was by a girl. There’s no way you’re getting flashed in a real life game of Uno. That might be kind of nasty if you’re playing Uno with your grandmother and all of the sudden she goes and flashes you with her old saggy boobies.

As I inch closer to immortality and the holy grail that is being the #1 ranked Uno player in the world I find solace in the fact that I’ve never worked harder for anything in life than being the #1 Uno player in the world. I’m currently ranked 8,929 in the world out of 300,000 players. There’s no way to claim your fame of being the best Uno player in the world if you’re only playing with your family. You might be the best in your family but you’ll never know who truly great an Uno player you are until you pass me on Xbox Live!

    Usually I play Uno w. my friends…it’s funny game…but @ the end game u start to hate other players…u can play w. Uno on Windows Live Messenger (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/d/d0/UnoWLM.jpg ), but I think playing w. real cards is better than virtual gaming…I always lose w. cardgames infact i prefer play w. video games…but Uno it’s a very simple game…and sometime I win…when I play against 8yo players…but i’m a great player w. Scopa If you don’t know what Scopa is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scopa

    That was an easy question.

    Punk!

  10. gregg o'connell March 27th, 2007 7:48 am

    dirty: I’m an Uno thug so watch it!

  11. cc1904 March 27th, 2007 7:56 am

    Yes you are a loser if you play Uno online. But find solace Gregg in the fact that everyone you’re playing against is also a loser and probably a bigger one than you! :)

  12. dirty March 27th, 2007 7:58 am

    You are an Uno Loser…

    I’m fairly certain I am safe…you couldn’t hurt a fly.

  13. gregg o'connell March 27th, 2007 8:04 am

    captain: if you played Uno online I’d kick your ass!

    dirty: I could hurt a fly if it were on Xbox Live!

  14. dirty March 27th, 2007 8:05 am

    That doesn’t count.

    Quit hiding behind your joystick…

    pussy.

  15. gregg o'connell March 27th, 2007 8:10 am

    dirty: why dont you get OFF MY JOYSTICK!

  16. dirty March 27th, 2007 8:11 am

    HA!

  17. Erica March 27th, 2007 9:35 am

    How many times did you write the word Uno in that post? It was starting to annoy me. But I would never burst your social on-line-gaming circle… I know it’s all you have.

  18. gregg o'connell March 27th, 2007 9:52 am

    Erica: cool dude 13 times!

  19. cc1904 March 27th, 2007 10:24 am

    That’s a false statement. You’re so skinny you’re just going to melt away now….

  20. gregg o'connell March 27th, 2007 10:29 am

    captain: I told you Nicole Richie is my idol!
    wanna be my paris hilton?

  21. QofD March 27th, 2007 10:30 am

    What? Like you don’t know how to play poker?

    …your man-card is in danger of being revoked.

  22. gregg o'connell March 27th, 2007 10:33 am

    Q of D: Unfortuanetly I do not know how to play poker…can someone help me?

  23. julianne_b March 27th, 2007 11:42 am

    1.) tell bill that there is a part of my ass left that he can kiss… and you play uno online cause he won’t play with you. no i didn’t mean for that to come out as dirty as that sounded.

    2.) playing on line games doesn’t make you a loser… it makes you SO COOL.

    3.) and if you never been flashed by a girl while playing uno in rel life… obviously you’ve never played uno with me…

    sorry I needed the number thing today… i’m all about the multipule reasons today…

  24. gregg o'connell March 27th, 2007 12:10 pm

    Julianne: you really do love me!

  25. Lime March 27th, 2007 1:10 pm

    Someone should create “STRIP-UNO”…a very UNO hot version…maybe the new Strip-poker of 21th century!
    tomorrow i’ll call BILL to propose on xboxlive and Windowslivemessenger this new version…using also a webcam…:-)

  26. Mike Honcho March 27th, 2007 1:29 pm

    I’m gonns come after your ranking. Watch it. We all know my crazy Uno skillz.

  27. cc1904 March 27th, 2007 1:30 pm

    Maybe you fools will start wacking it to cartoons now too…

  28. gregg o'connell March 27th, 2007 1:32 pm

    lime: strip uno would be an amazing game! Imagine instead of putting down a draw four card you put down a take 4 articles of clothing off card!

    Mike: you’re usually drunk during Uno so i think my record is safe~

    captain: we already do to that foxy cartoon from rogger rabbitt

  29. you miss me March 27th, 2007 4:55 pm

    Gregg, you live in beautiful SD with your beautiful chick, loving animals, great friends, & you’d rather stay inside? Next time the Uno urge hits, call some peeps, go out somewhere fun & enjoy this place. Then if you land at someones house, break out the cards, that $4 bottle of vino & have some soy chips. I’m gonna call that show Intervention & get you away from electronics.

  30. Xtina March 27th, 2007 5:25 pm

    Uno ROCKS!!!

  31. Bill March 27th, 2007 7:38 pm

    Uno online IS for losers. Besides, since losing a game has no effect on your ranking, your “world ranking” is meaningless..

  32. gregg o'connell March 27th, 2007 8:53 pm

    you miss me: is there even life without Uno online?

    Xtina: you rawk me like a hurrican

    Bill: you must win to go higher in the rankings..how many wins do you have?

  33. Mike Honcho March 28th, 2007 12:00 am

    Drunk UNO is the best. I just don’t want a camera in my room while I play. My personal space would be invaded. I am gonna come after ya though.

  34. julianne_b March 28th, 2007 12:13 am

    yea i do love you.. and a game of strip uno online sounds like fun.. let me know when it’s all in place

  35. gregg o'connell March 28th, 2007 5:42 am

    Mike: please don’t go gunning for my record i like being in the top 10,000

    julianne: it’s in place!
    get one tonight!

  36. amy March 30th, 2007 9:45 am

    I think this is a fine ambition for you. I wish you luck, Mr. O’Connell.

    I don’t have a webcam or a 360, so I am clearly the loser.

  37. Jackyourmama April 7th, 2007 5:38 am
