What it does

On reveal: -3 Power to the strongest enemy card here.

On reveal happens once, when the card flips.

It costs 3 RAM to play and brings 3 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 2008

An American crowdfunding website where people raise money for ideas, charities and start-up businesses.

Founded by Danae Ringelmann, Slava Rubin and Eric Schell, it was one of the first crowdfunding sites. Backers got perks rather than shares, until equity campaigns arrived in November 2016.

In 2008: Launched at the Sundance Film Festival in January, aimed at film projects. The idea had been developed in 2007 as Project Keiyaku.

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.
