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 2005

A food website that began as a guide to dining and nightlife in New York City.

Lockhart Steele and Ben Leventhal started it in 2005. It went national in 2009, covered nearly 20 cities by 2012 and was bought by Vox Media in 2013. The James Beard Foundation Awards have recognised it twelve times.

Web 2.0 era, 2003 to 2008. Rounded corners, reflections and drop shadows. Everything was social, and everything was in beta.

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