What it does
Each round end: If you're winning here, +2 Power to this card.
Each round end fires as every round finishes.
It costs 5 RAM to play and brings 9 Power to its lane. You get 1 RAM in round 1, 2 in round 2, and so on.
Commerce cards grow every round and make your opponent pay more to play.
The site, in 2002
Local classified ads for jobs, housing, things for sale and more, laid out as plain lists of links, started by Craig Newmark in San Francisco.
It began in 1995 as an email list of events for friends. By 2023 it listed about 700 cities in 70 countries and drew 560 million visits a month.
In 2002: Four more cities were added, the same number as in 2001, after nine in 2000.
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.
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 Craigslist in your deck? Make a free account and open some packs, or try a match first. No sign-up needed for that.
