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 website in Santa Cruz, California, that preserves public domain religious texts in electronic form.
John Bruno Hare opened it on 9 March 1999, while working as a software engineer. It aims to promote religious tolerance through knowledge, and by 2006 it drew an estimated half a million to two million visits a day.
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.
