Fat-a-Fat Cricket

In boarding school we used to play this game of our own device, called Flash Uno. We got rid of all the mulch, i.e. the number cards except for 1, 2 and 3. So there were comparatively more Draws fours, Draw twos, Wilds, Skips and Reverses.

It was the atmosphere of the 10th board exams. We didn’t have time for long drawn games. It had to be quick. It had to be thrilling. Flash Uno gave us an action-packed 15 minutes.

But soon the Draw fours, Draw twos, Wilds, Skips and Reverses weren’t as exciting anymore and we stopped playing Uno, altogether.

This is a connect the dots puzzle. Do you see a disconnect between the title and the content?
