What it does
On reveal: Add a copy of a random card in your hand to your hand.
On reveal happens once, when the card flips.
The copy is a fresh card, ready to play.
It costs 3 RAM to play and brings 6 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 2005
Bobby Henderson's website for the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster, a parody religion created to mock teaching intelligent design in science classes.
Henderson, a 24-year-old physics graduate, sent his open letter to the Kansas State Board of Education in January 2005 and posted it in May. Boing Boing, Fark and Something Awful spread it; within a year he had over 60,000 emails.
In 2005: Posted the open letter in May; Niklas Jansson's spoof of The Creation of Adam appeared in August, and Henderson got a reported $80,000 book advance in December.
Web 2.0 era, 2003 to 2008. Rounded corners, reflections and drop shadows. Everything was social, and everything was in beta.
Meme Machine: Where the jokes everyone repeated got started.
