What it does
On reveal: If you already have another Creators card here, +3 Power to this card.
On reveal happens once, when the card flips.
It costs 5 RAM to play and brings 8 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 2006
A stick-figure webcomic by Randall Munroe about maths, science, programming and relationships, with new strips three times a week.
Munroe began by scanning his notebook doodles, and later left NASA to draw it full time. Its 2012 'Click and Drag' panel is 165,888 pixels wide, and 'Time' ran for 3,099 frames in 2013 and won a Hugo Award.
In 2006: Moved to a site of its own in January, built with Derek Radtke.
Web 2.0 era, 2003 to 2008. Rounded corners, reflections and drop shadows. Everything was social, and everything was in beta.
Cult Classics: Small, strange and loved to bits by the people who found them.
Pixel tribute by dub3, after the 2006 page.
In the game, this pixel page loads the way it did in 2006, then plays a short scene. Want xkcd in your deck? Make a free account and open some packs, or try a match first. No sign-up needed for that.
