What it does

No ability.

No ability, just Power. Sometimes that's all a homepage needs.

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.

Social cards lift the cards around them, here and in the other lanes.

The site, in 2003

A Dutch blog founded on 10 April 2003, with a provocative tone. Its name means 'no style'.

At its height it drew around 75,000 visitors a day. In March 2005 it announced a plan to bus people to a party convention in Rotterdam to vote against the cabinet. It was a hoax, but it reached the TV news.

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.
