What it does
On reveal: +2 Power to your cards in other lanes.
On reveal happens once, when the card flips.
It costs 5 RAM to play and brings 2 Power to its lane. You get 1 RAM in round 1, 2 in round 2, and so on.
Social cards lift the cards around them, here and in the other lanes.
The site, in 2006
A Spanish social network, joined by invitation only, whose name comes from 'tu identidad' (your identity), not the English 'twenty'.
From 2009 to 2012 it was the favourite network of young people in Spain, with over 15 million users, and in 2011 it drew more Spanish web traffic than Google and Facebook together. Telefónica bought it and made it a phone brand.
In 2006: Launched late in the year by Zaryn Dentzel and friends, aimed at first at university students.
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.
