What it does

On reveal: +2 Power to your other cards here.

On reveal happens once, when the card flips.

It costs 2 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 2011

A Chinese question-and-answer site, often compared to Quora, where users ask questions and write the answers.

It launched on 26 January 2011 and had 76 million registered users as of 2021. By the early 2020s it had picked up Reddit-like features as well.

Modern era, 2009 on. Phones, feeds and cookie banners. The web got fast, flat and very sure about notifications.

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