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 2004
Mozilla's community marketing site, where volunteers swapped ideas, earned points for referrals and organised events to promote Firefox.
Opened on 12 September 2004 with the Firefox Preview Release. Supporters funded a two-page New York Times ad listing thousands of names for Firefox 1.0, and its Firefox 3 download drive set a Guinness record of over eight million. Closed in May 2011.
In 2004: Opened on 12 September; on 16 December the New York Times ad with contributors' names ran for Firefox 1.0.
Web 2.0 era, 2003 to 2008. Rounded corners, reflections and drop shadows. Everything was social, and everything was in beta.
Dead Links: Gone, but not forgotten. Mostly forgotten.
Pixel tribute by dub3, after the 2004 page.
In the game, this pixel page loads the way it did in 2004, then plays a short scene. Want Spread Firefox in your deck? Make a free account and open some packs, or try a match first. No sign-up needed for that.
