What it does
On reveal: -2 Power to the strongest enemy card here.
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.
Tech cards bend the rules: more RAM, cheaper cards and patches that weaken the other side.
The site, in 1999
A New York website that began in 1999 as an edgy entertainment site with radio and cartoons, and now publishes news and sport.
Simon Assaad and David Carson launched it in September 1999. Its cartoon Behind the Music That Sucks parodied VH1, and by 2002 it reportedly drew about 800,000 hits a day. It styles its name "heavy." with a full stop.
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.
