What it does

Each round end: If this is your only card here, +1 Power to this card.

Each round end fires as every round finishes.

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

Creators cards are strongest on their own, and some only get going late.

The site, in 2000

A humour site where Eric Wu takes readers' requests for emotions and posts photos of himself acting them out, almost 300 of them.

He started it in 1998 while studying at the University of Florida, after connecting a camcorder to his computer. Requests stretched to 'sneeze coming', and by May 2000 more than 100 arrived a day. It was nominated for a Webby in humour in 2003.

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 Weird Web: One page, one joke, no reason. The internet at its best.
