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 1998

A webcomic by Scott Kurtz about the staff of a fictional video game magazine, full of running gags and nerd references.

It began on 4 May 1998. By 2005 it drew around 100,000 unique visitors a day, and it became an animated series in 2007. The last new comic appeared in September 2022.

Boom era, 1995 to 1998. Netscape, frames, hit counters and animated envelopes. Everyone had a homepage, and every homepage was under construction.

The Long Tail: The niche, the local and the specialist. Most of the web, really.
