What it does
Ongoing: If this is your only card here, +4 Power to this card.
Ongoing is always on while the card is in play.
It costs 4 RAM to play and brings 7 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 2005
A car leasing dealership in Newcastle upon Tyne, known for its very odd website.
The site has been called the weirdest on the internet, with karaoke, games and a shop. Founder Ling Valentine wanted it to stand out from other leasing sites. It was toned down in February 2025.
In 2005: A profit of £100,000 for the year. Sales were reported at more than £1 million a month by 2006.
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.
