* DissonantSerenity: Around the halfway point, all four players decide to just play normal numbered cards despite having action cards for several turns and all speak with a soft voice more befitting a nature documentary. But eventually, Jeremy ends up screwed over anyway by virtue of not having the right color card after Gavin's turn and expresses his frustration like this.

* PoorCommunicationKills: At one point, Gavin only has one red card left and if he wins will take the entire game. Since everyone who calls out what color they have gets inevitably screwed over by someone who plays a wild card picking a completely different color, Gavin tells Jeremy that he actually has a green card, hoping that Jeremy will pick red by accident. Unfortunately, by this point, Jeremy is so desperate to get home that he takes Gavin's lie at face value and calls green, making Gavin draw cards and ensuring that the game goes on.

* UnwinnableByMistake: Compounding the previous Let's Play's rules of Draw-to-Match and Stacking with the new 7-0 rule and raising the required score to 500 creates a virtually unwinnable game. Any time a player is forced to draw a large number of cards, it increases the chance that they will find a 0 or 7. This creates large decks with multiple 7's or 0's which will get passed around frequently, as any hand with multiple 7's is a hand which must give a 7 to another player. Players with small hands on the verge of winning are prime targets for swapping, but making the matter worse is that once their deck is stolen, there is nothing stopping the hand's previous owner from telling the rest of the group what cards to avoid giving the hand's new owner (other than their own faulty memory), which is perhaps one of the reasons that public voice-chat was removed from the game. This leads inevitably to more cards being drawn, and the cycle continuing. The game essentially becomes a PrisonersDilemma in which self-interest will only prolong the game, requiring cooperation from all four parties to bring it to an end.

* TheSmartGuy: Ryan is the first one to question whether or not it'd be possible to even win the game, and everyone pretty much brushes off all his concerns, until they find out that someone needs to get 500 points to win. When Geoff and Gavin insist on finishing the game the whole way through, Ryan eventually tries stacking up a horde of cards in his hand to guarantee ''someone'' would get enough points to finish the game. [[spoiler:Ironically, before he leaves to take care of his kids, Ryan screws over Gavin's chances of winning in a critical moment, essentially being responsible for the ''second half of the movie'']].
