What it does

Ongoing: From round 5, +3 Power to this card.

Ongoing is always on while the card is in play.

It costs 2 RAM to play and brings 1 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 2006

A do-it-yourself guide to building a magnetic anomaly detector at home, billed as a UFO detector.

The idea is that anything strange passing nearby might disturb the magnetic field. The compass version has you watch the needle for erratic swings, once magnets and metal are ruled out. The address now redirects to a maker of UFO detector kits.

Web 2.0 era, 2003 to 2008. Rounded corners, reflections and drop shadows. Everything was social, and everything was in beta.

The Weird Web: One page, one joke, no reason. The internet at its best.
