What it does
On reveal: If an enemy card was revealed here earlier this round, +2 Power to this card.
On reveal happens once, when the card flips.
It costs 4 RAM to play and brings 8 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 2008
A blog of photos and videos of mishaps, captioned "fail", which later shifted towards real-life stories.
Launched in January 2008, it was bought that July by Pet Holdings for the Cheezburger Network, then sold to Literally Media in 2016. Many of its stories are now sourced from Reddit.
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.
