What it does

On reveal: If played in round 5 or later, +3 Power to this card.

On reveal happens once, when the card flips.

It costs 4 RAM to play and brings 6 Power to its lane. You get 1 RAM in round 1, 2 in round 2, and so on.

Media cards broadcast Power to your other lanes.

The site, in 1999

A business-to-business media site covering business news and trends, which also sells lead generation, directory listings and display advertising.

The domain sold for $7.5 million in December 1999, a record price at the time. R.H. Donnelley bought the business for $345 million in 2007, and Purch Group acquired it in 2016.

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.

The Long Tail: The niche, the local and the specialist. Most of the web, really.
