Dark Omni & Gray Pink
These conventions apply to any variant with a dark omni suit or a gray pink suit.
Inheritance
- Dark omni cards "inherit" all of the conventions from the base suits (e.g. dark pink conventions, black conventions, omni conventions).
- However, Soft Good Touch Principle obviously does not apply to dark cards.
- Gray pink cards "inherit" all of the conventions from the base suits (e.g. dark pink conventions, light pink conventions).
- Some specific clarifications and exceptions are listed below.
Normal Saves
- Dark omni or gray pink 2's on chop should be saved with a number 2 clue, as per normal.
- Dark omni or gray pink 5's on chop should be saved with a number 5 clue, as per normal.
- However, there are some exceptions, which are listed below.
Pseudo 5 Saves
- Dark omni or gray pink 3's and 4's on chop should be saved with number 5 clue.
- This is because we want to preserve the ability to give a Play Clue with number 3 or number 4.
- However, there are some exceptions, which are listed below.
Fake Saves
- When saving a dark omni or gray pink card with a rank clue, players can break the rules listed above in order to:
- avoid violating Good Touch Principle
- pick up an extra card (as a 2-for-1 instead of a 1-for-1)
- Pink Promise does not apply if one of these things could be the case.
- Thus:
- A 2 clue on chop (touching 1 card) -->
o2, any normal 2
- A 2 clue on chop (touching 2+ cards) -->
o2, o3, o4, o5, any normal 2
- A 3 clue on chop (touching X cards with no 3's in the trash) -->
any playable 3
(e.g. this is a Play Clue) - A 3 clue on chop (touching 1 card with 3's in the trash) -->
any 3 that is in the trash
- A 3 clue on chop (touching 2+ card with 3's in the trash) -->
o2, o3, o4, o5, any 3 that is in the trash
- A 4 clue on chop (touching X cards with no 4's in the trash) -->
any playable 4
(e.g. this is a Play Clue) - A 4 clue on chop (touching 1 card with 4's in the trash) -->
any 4 that is in the trash
- A 4 clue on chop (touching 2+ card with 4's in the trash) -->
o2, o3, o4, o5, any 4 that is in the trash
- A 5 clue on chop (touching X cards) -->
o2, o3, o4, o5, any other 5
- A 2 clue on chop (touching 1 card) -->

- First, see the section on the Fake 5's Chop Move & the Fake 5 Pull (in variants with a dark pink suit).
