What it does
Ongoing: If this is your only card here, +3 Power to this card.
Ongoing is always on while the card is in play.
It costs 2 RAM to play and brings 3 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 2002
Free web hosting where anyone could build a home page. It began in the US in 1994 and came to Japan in 1997, renamed Yahoo! GeoCities in 2000.
Pages were filed under 'cities' named for their subject, such as SiliconValley and Hollywood. The US service closed in October 2009 after at least 38 million pages; the Japanese version ran until March 2019.
In 2002: Two years after Yahoo! Japan took the Japanese GeoCities company into itself and renamed the service Yahoo! GeoCities.
Dot-com era, 1999 to 2002. Glossy buttons, big money and a bug called Y2K. Some of these companies were worth billions for about a fortnight.
Under Construction: Homepages, fan shrines and the GIFs that decorated them.
