A card game called "Federation Day" poker existed in the 24th century, in which "2"s, "aces", and "6"s were wild, since the Federation was founded in 2161.
Deanna Troi suggested playing this game to the rest of the senior staff members of the Enterprise in 2368, however, Worf found it difficult to ascertain exactly what he had in his hand with so many wild cards. (TNG: "The Outcast")
