What it does
On reveal: Draw 1 card.
On reveal happens once, when the card flips.
It costs 2 RAM to play and brings 5 Power to its lane. You get 1 RAM in round 1, 2 in round 2, and so on.
Search cards grow with the friends in their lane, and some draw you cards.
The site, in 2002
A web portal and directory run by Jimmy Wales, Tim Shell and Michael Davis, which built webrings and sold advertising.
The name came from "Bitter Old Men in Suits". It hosted Nupedia, then Wikipedia, which started on 15 January 2001 and was handed to the Wikimedia Foundation in 2003.
In 2002: Wikipedia was still its subsidiary, and layoffs early in the year cut the staff back to about five.
Dot-com era, 1999 to 2002. Glossy buttons, big money and a bug called Y2K. Some of these companies were worth billions for about a fortnight.
Dead Links: Gone, but not forgotten. Mostly forgotten.
Pixel tribute by dub3, after the 2002 page.
In the game, this pixel page loads the way it did in 2002, then plays a short scene. Want Bomis in your deck? Make a free account and open some packs, or try a match first. No sign-up needed for that.
