What it does
No ability.
No ability, just Power. Sometimes that's all a homepage needs.
It costs 3 RAM to play and brings 6 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 1994
A one-page website whose only content was a plain purple background, with no links and no text.
Software engineer Jeff Abrahamson launched it on 31 August 1994, making it the oldest known single-serving site. IT support staff used it to test connections, and he sold the domain to a mattress maker in 2017.
In 1994: Launched on 31 August, filled edge to edge with #DD00FF, the shade it kept until 2006.
Pioneer era, up to 1994. Grey pages, blue links and a browser called Mosaic. Images were optional. So was colour.
The Weird Web: One page, one joke, no reason. The internet at its best.
Pixel tribute by dub3, after the 1994 page.
