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 2001

A British music webzine founded in Liverpool in 2001, which began with gig listings.

It grew to cover music news, album reviews and interviews, moved to London, and ran a print magazine from 2021 to 2023. BBC News, the Guardian and Rolling Stone reprinted its content. It closed in 2024.

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