Rulings Comprehension

1.1: I have a face up TG librarian, and my opponent summons blackrose dragon and declares that he wants to use the nuke eff. Do I get the +1 from librarian or not? Explain.
1.2: Would the answer be different if my opponent was summoning Trishula and removing my librarian? How about mist wurm targetting my librarian?

2. I have a face up Neo spacian grant mole. My opponent summons Ally of justice Catastor and attacks my grand mole. Is my opponent doing the right thing here or no? Why?

3: I have a face up E-hero the shining and 3 e-hero monsters in my banished card zone, and opponent has a face down monster. I attack that monster and it appears to be a ryko, that ryko targets the shining for the destruction eff. What happens next?

4. I and my opponent both have a face up mystic tomato. It's my turn so i attack and both tomatoes die. We both use its effect. My opponent tells me that he wants me to use my effect first so that he can see what i summon, I say that i want him to go first. You are the judge, how do you solve this problem?

5.1: We are having a mirror match with both I and my opponent using geartown. I have 1 gear town in hand, and 1 face up on my side of the field. I destroy the one on the field and activate my new gear town, and run to my deck to try summon gadjiltron dragon from it. My opponent lulz. Was he right in laughing at me?
5.2: Still in the same match, My opponent has a face up geartown. I activate a geartown in my hand to destroy his. My opponent lulz even more. Was he right?
5.3: Same match. I have a face up geartown. My opponent sets a geartown in his field-spell zone. I lul. Was i right?

if you did you didn't send them to me haha

um are we still in time to send the answers? O_o

Too bad I didn't see this earlier D= lol. oh well.

you have until i post the answers to send them in. and i'm not gonna post the answers until i get a reply from coolchemist2001 haha

here are the answers! (sorry they took so long)
if you didn't notice, most of the questions were based on mandatory and optional effects and SEGOC.

1.1: T.G. Librarian's effect is mandatory and Black Rose Dragon's effect is optional. mandatory effects are placed on the chain before optional effects, so Librarian's effect is chain link 1 and Black Rose is chain link 2. the chain resolves backwards. so black rose destroys everything and librarian is no longer on the field so it's effecet will resolve without effect.
1.2: The answer would not be different if your opponent summoned Trishula. Trishula's effect is optional, like Black Rose, and would resolve before Librarian got to resolve. Mist Wurm is different. It's effect is mandatory. and when 2 mandatory effects activate simultaneously, the turn player's effect becomes chain link 1 and the non-turn player's effect would be chain link 2. since the controller of Librarian is the non-turn player, his/her effect would be chain link 2 and would resolve
before Mist Wurm.

2: Catastor's effect is mandatory and Grand Mole's effect is optional. since Catastor's effect is mandatory it will be chain link 1 and Grand Mole will be chain link 2, since it's effect is optional. grand mole would resolve first returning Catastor and itself to the hand and extra deck and Catastor would resolve without effect.

3: Ryko's effect would resolve and destroy Shining and then mills the top 3 cards of the deck. since the last thing to happen was not The Shining leaving the field and going to the grave, the effect to get 2 HEROs to your hand misses the timing. The Shining has an optioinal "when....you can" effect, which means that it's trigger has to be the last thing to happen or it will miss the timing.

4: when 2 effects activate simultaneously we look at SEGOC(Simultaneous Effects Go On a Chain) to form the chain. the order should go:

1) Turn Player's mandatory effects
2) Non-turn Player's mandatory effects
3) Turn Player's optional effects
4) Non-turn Player's optional effects

since both effects are optional the chain will build like SEGOC order. since you are turn player and attacked into the other one your tomato will be chain link 1 and your opponent will be chain link 2. so chain resolves backwards and your opponent summons his monster first and then you summon yours after.

5.1: Although it is not good to actually laugh at your opponents, your opponent was right. Geartown's effect to special summon the Dragon thing is a "when....you can" optional trigger effect, so it's destruction has to be the last thing to happen or it will miss the timing. when you play a new field spell, and replace your old one, the last thing to happen is the activation of the new field spell resolving. so in this case it would miss the timing.
5.2: Your opponent was correct (about the situation, not the laughing). when your opponent has a face-up field spell active and you activate a new field spell, your opponent's field spell will not be destroyed until after your new field spell resolves. so the destruction of your opponent's field spell, by game mechanics, will be the last thing to happen, thus allowing him to summon the Dragon thing.
5.3: Why is everyone laughing at each other?! The rule book says that there can only be 1 face-up spell of the field at a time. so if you have a face-up field spell and your opponent sets his field spell, nothing will happen. No destruction, no nothing.

@Shadow PM me and let me know how you wanna help.

For example:


Redgar: 2/6 correct. 20RC cashed
Frost: 6/6 correct 9000RC cashed

@ Redgar: I would prefer that done privately via pm's as opposed to posting. That way, you don't mind participating in the quiz even if you know you'll get all the answers wrong. I can pm the people who pm'ed me and i guess J0hn can do the same.

OMG I didn't knew you started this yet. This is Greath I will participate in the next one !

Meh I was too late, my week was busy. I will also participate next time, I love these things . I totally didn't know about the last one...I thought there can only be one field period.
