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 1999

A website that finds and rates scenes of female nudity in films and television.

Founded in August 1999. Mr. Skin is also the nickname of its chief executive, Jim McBride. The site drew more than seven million visitors a month in 2007, and over ten million in 2014.

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.
