What it does
On reveal: +1 RAM next round.
On reveal happens once, when the card flips.
RAM is what you spend to play cards.
It costs 1 RAM to play and brings 1 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 2000
A free network for finding a place to stay with local hosts around the world, started in Koblenz, Germany.
Hosts were not allowed to charge. It had more than 400,000 members in 200 countries by 2008, but fell behind CouchSurfing after 2007, and the site was fully offline by April 2022.
In 2000: Founded in July in Koblenz by Veit Kühne, after a trip to South America.
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.
