RE:Rulings Knowledge
Me? I've just been doing this for a long time. I started playing around MRD, and I got into judging ... I don't really remember when, but "Toon Gemini Elf" came out shortly afterwards.

Pretty much the only way to get better is through practice. Just hang out around Q&A forums - like here, or on Pojo, or other sites - and answer questions whenever you can. If you get it right, then you'll learn it better; if you don't, then you'll learn something new, and get better. And if you can, find a local tournament and start judging for it. Getting "in-depth" experience like that will help you learn quickly, especially player management situations, which can't be effectively taught on-line.

Also, I don't know everything. There's still a lot I don't know about the cards, and even more that I don't know about mechanics. Everyone is always learning. When I answer questions, I almost always look up the answer first, just in case there's an obscure ruling that I don't know.

Oh, and learning Japanese helps, since you can get all the stuff from the OCG. Y'know, because learning a new language just to get better at a card game is TOTALLY reasonable. :P

Hey, I was wondering...
I'm a friend of VR, and I was wondering if you could take a look at my decks to see if you could help them. Fuogdino 17:25, December 19, 2009 (UTC)

Hi.
I am planning on a Black Tyranno Direct attack. we think we know what all we need, VR will post here on ur talk page on what we are thinking for it's finishing build. Fuogdino 19:02, December 21, 2009 (UTC)

Your X-Saber Deck
I have created a page in the Duel Terminal that catalogued our duel.

I still need you to post your Decklist at the top though.

Re: New Template
Sounds like a good idea. I'd say it should be something similiar to the contradict and cleanup templates. -- Deltaneos (talk) 20:19, December 29, 2009 (UTC)

HELP ME!!!
Motd- plz help me!! I'm freaking out. I tried to access the Serebii.net IRC chat by accident from Freenode instead of PurpleSurge. This redirected me to #do-not-join-this. From there, I got banned from Freenode and now I can't access any Freenode channels. What should I do??? HELP!!! -TehPurpleOne's User Page (Talk to Me) Or Read my Blog 23:36, December 29, 2009 (UTC)

X-Sabers/XX-Sabers
There might be one or two with similarities, but it's way too much of a stretch to say that all XX-Sabers are based on an X-Saber. --Blue (Talk) 05:18, January 7, 2010 (UTC)

What picture(s) should I put in the Normal Summon page?
I'm just following what the WikiStickies says on there. If the pictures, that I put up, are not the ones for that page, then what pictures should I put up? --Notra 06:37, January 11, 2010 (UTC)Notra

Dark Ruler OTK

 * I kinda agree with this Unregistered User, other than his horrible comments. What's wrong with my OTK? "Harpie's Feather Duster" and "Raigeki" will clear the opponent's field. If you don't want me to put them as optional cards, I can put them in the OTK card list. The OTK rule says: Maximum 6 cards in an OTK. Please do not delete it. --002517 07:30, January 12, 2010 (UTC)


 * Oh no, I don't want to keep repeating this subject with other users, but never mind... I especially wrote in the OTK: If you know (Or your guessing) that your opponent might destroy your Set "Reversal of Fate", please make sure that you are ready to counter cards that attempt to destroy your Set cards. --002517 08:26, January 12, 2010 (UTC)


 * Thanks for your encouragement of my OTK, but I still don't understand the "Light Barrier" and "Reversal of Fate" combo. And you mentioned "Heavy Storm" or "Giant Trunade", but that will only destroy those cards. Help... --002517 11:31, January 12, 2010 (UTC)

P.S. By the way, I forgot to mention, when you use "Light Barrier"the results are indefinite. You never know if you get Heads or Tails, so in that case, would "Reversal of Fate" be better? ... --002517 11:38, January 12, 2010 (UTC)

Trick Battle
I've got an idea for our next deck contest - it's been such a long time. (Not really weekly anymore, is it...) The idea is a deck based around Trick Battle, from the anime. But before I make the contest, I need to know how the card works... is battle damage inflicted in reverse as well? Runer5h 20:51, January 12, 2010 (UTC)Runer5h


 * Oh, OK. You know, I didn't know that. I replaced the "Reversal of Fate" with the "Light Barrier" on the OTK page, and I will redo the edits I previously made on that page. Thanks for everything! --002517 00:57, January 13, 2010 (UTC)

OK, that's how it works. So, what do you think of the idea? Runer5h 02:49, January 13, 2010 (UTC)Runer5h

That would be because the correct name is Bri Synchron, not Prime Synchron.PoirotH 06:26, January 15, 2010 (UTC)

Necro
I wouldn't consider them to be related just because they have "Necro" in their names. They have no connection to the Zombie-Type "Necro" monsters. -- Deltaneos (talk) 16:38, January 15, 2010 (UTC)

WDC Question?
When is the next WDC (Weekly Deck Competition)? Sorry, but I'm totally new to this. What is the maximum number of cards that are need to be used in a deck? Do the decks have to be real and not one that's just made up? PLEASE HELP ME!!! --002517 05:58, January 22, 2010 (UTC)

Stardust Dragon (Paradox)
I just placed your image onto the original Stardust Dragon, since Stardust Dragon (Paradox) is being deleted. That Stardust Dragon was just the original Stardust, only with different colors to show it was Paradox's card now. Anyways, check it out on Stardust Dragon's gallery!

Re: Deletion
Sorry about Mikami. A lot of stuff that got deleted was broken redirects or other card info pages that should have been moved along with their main card article. I've fixed some of them. Is there anyting else that you think shouldn't have been deleted? -- Deltaneos (talk) 19:50, February 1, 2010 (UTC)


 * Could you tell me which individual ones you think shouldn't have been deleted? -- Deltaneos (talk) 20:04, February 1, 2010 (UTC)


 * Card Tips:Guard Hedge was deleted because it should have been moved to [[Card Tips:Hedge Guard], which was since recreated. That one has has been fixed.
 * I think Card Trivia:Jinzo - Lord was pointless. "Jinzo" is used to Sumon "Jinzo - Lord". Pointing out that it's an upgraded version seems redundant.
 * For Card Trivia:Spectre, aside from colour, I don't think there's a strong resemblance between "Spectre" and "Minar".
 * I've brought back Card Trivia:Edge Hammer or at least the first bullet.
 * Last Turn FTK and the first part of Card Trivia:Broken Bamboo Sword I think should be kept.
 * Card Trivia:Accumulated Fortune, Card Trivia:Reasoning and Card Trivia:Infernity Climber, I'm not sure about but wouldn't mind if they were kept or deleted.
 * You should probably be asking her about these, since she is the one who deleted them. -- Deltaneos (talk) 21:02, February 1, 2010 (UTC)

Re: Card Editing/Anime Summaries
Yeah, I'd say card names should always be in quotes when used in prose. Except maybe if it's a Duel Spirit rather than the card itself, e.g. Dark Magician Girl (character). -- Deltaneos (talk) 19:44, February 2, 2010 (UTC)

New Konami Yugioh Card trading game official rule book v.7
Please check out the book before you make any changes to "When Simultaneous spell speed 1 effects are activated" its on page 43 3rd paragraph read it well and you will find that there is a mistake in the order and priority on the order of the special Chain If u dont understand english very well becuz ur chinese i guess (i saw ur orig konami cards in jap version) than try ur best to understand, It doesn't take a Rocket Scientist to figure out the rules If you dont find the error on the wikia after reading the book READ IT AGAIN!! For Rules Sake thank you, and STOP UNEDDITING the mistakes that i corrected!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Trascendent 05:28, February 18, 2010 (UTC)

Haha your hilarious Konami FAQ answered by people who made the Game? Good one i dont know why you believe that fan made site becuz they speak Japanse? or because you believed a lie some kid told you 1 - Konami Faq Does not in anyway offer TCG OCG OR any other type of official rules, the site is answered by anyone, and anyone can write rules there 2 - KONAMI FAQ was created to Give the Job that normally konami would do of answeing so many COG questions to The "people to figure it Out by themselves Does not necesseraly mean the "people" would Get the Correct meaning 3- KONAMI FAQ is Made of yugioh fans between the ages of 20-8 genereally the older generation would have most answers to the questions that kids could not figure out themselves 4 - Konami FAQ is what is called A "FORUM" do you know what i forum is????????? IS MADE OUT OF PEOPLE!!!!!!!!!!!! 5 - to get the right meaning of the cards you have to spent an hour sometimes more to trully be 100% right, it doesn't just take a glimpse at the descroption for 5 minutes and understanding of course you wouldn't understand it because i have to explain you this whole thing 6 - Unless the Information you "claim"  is authentic, it will have to have come directly from The official yougioh website here's a link to the site if couldn't find it www.yugioh-card.com The only mistake Konami made was make so many steps in the game and giving so little detail, and make a 12"x7" Official Rule book consisting Of only 50 Pages!! Trascendent 06:00, February 18, 2010 (UTC)

Of course you dont get the point Just like you wouldn't understand what someone is telling you or what you read Just because KONAMI FAQ has MOderators does not make it Legit Nor Linked to konami from konami, just because you label yourself as a judge of yugioh (honestly based on your ideas i dont even think konami would even want you) and you can convince a bunch of naive kids doesn't mean you are right I am not going to waste my time trying to convice i dont know why would you have Japanese version Deck,? are you even "from" wisconsin?

WDC Idea
What if we made up 8 cards and had each person build a deck using one of the cards? Runer5h 20:48, March 10, 2010 (UTC)Runer5h


 * Actually, only just now... whoops. Looks like you decided against an entirely new banlist... well, for new card ideas, check out some of the cards on the Dream Card page. I think that maybe for some of the cards you'd only use one original cards, and for others you could have some made-up cards for an archetype. And sorry, I can't really enter the new WDC - I have lots of stuff happening the next few days. Runer5h 21:03, March 10, 2010 (UTC)Runer5h


 * OHH, you clever SOB. I completely forgot about using that card. Runer5h 21:42, March 10, 2010 (UTC)Runer5h

Ha.
Not my fault that he's terrible at this game. I know I'm being a little mean, but the truth can't be denied. --Lifisali 00:55, March 11, 2010 (UTC)

...?
He's deserves it if he's posting less then good information on a widely public website. Those are terrible cards. Why mislead people by making it seem as if they're actually any good in a Lightsworn deck? Oh, so they can lose more and have a terribly built deck, all because someone posted shitty advise on a well known website. I'm surprised it wasn't fixed sooner. Then again, a lot of stuff on this wikia is poorly written, so why should I complain. :| --Lifisali 01:06, March 11, 2010 (UTC)

Because you should always believe what you read on the internetz. Net decking is a joke that butthurt people made up. It can and WILL happen, regardless of what people think of it. If your deck is good and wins games consistently, then it's going to be netdecked. It happens to all and any of the top toer decks as soon as they emerge to be so. So I wouldn't whine if I were you. --Lifisali 01:16, March 11, 2010 (UTC)

Hmm.
Also,if information is posted freely on the internet, such as a Deck List, if it's good and works well consistently, it's going to be net decked. Hence why it's a non stoppable phenomena. Even if it's discouraged, it's going to happen agian and again and again, regardless of your weak little opinions on whats soooo bad about it. --Lifisali 01:23, March 11, 2010 (UTC)

Heh.
Originality is only good if it makes a massive competitive impact on the game. Otherwise it has no use other then being another weightless leaf in the wind. And more will come, but only a few will make any real splash. So I understand what you mean by originality, but it does no good supportively on your end of the arguement. --Lifisali 01:27, March 11, 2010 (UTC)

You make me laugh.
Net decking is the best thing that happened to YuGiOh. Without it, the competitive arena of todays game would not be as great as it is today. Stop believeing in such a juvenile lie. --Lifisali 01:33, March 11, 2010 (UTC)

WDC Idea
What do you think of an Assault Mode deck contest? My idea was that only up to two people could choose the same monster. So, that puts us at 14 possible contestants. Runer5h 16:25, March 28, 2010 (UTC)Runer5h

Hey, who says we you can't win the WDC? It's their fault for not figuring out how perfect Masked Chopper is for the contest.

As for not being allowed to use Stardust/Assault, the decks are supposed to be judged by how well they're made in regards to the monster chosen. So it's probably all right to have Stardust - it shouldn't be too unbalancing. Runer5h 16:49, March 28, 2010 (UTC)Runer5h


 * OK... I'll put it on later today. Runer5h 16:53, March 28, 2010 (UTC)Runer5h


 * It's up now. Runer5h 02:15, March 29, 2010 (UTC)Runer5h

Another WDC Idea
What if we did decks based on imaginary cards? I've selected 8 undersupported archetypes and created anywhere from two to five cards for that archetype, and my idea is that each contestant would have to pick an archetype and use at least one of each of the cards. If you give me your e-mail, I'll be able to send you my ideas, and you can comment on them. Runer5h 23:05, April 3, 2010 (UTC)Runer5h


 * I took the liberty of editing your featured card article to add more tips, and clarify it somewhat. I think you'll like the changes.
 * Also, I sent the email. What do you think? Runer5h 01:45, April 5, 2010 (UTC)Runer5h


 * Umm... did you get the email? Runer5h 02:40, April 7, 2010 (UTC)Runer5h


 * Haven't seen him in AGES. Does he still use his Yusei deck? Anyways, whenever you have the time is OK. Runer5h 19:23, April 7, 2010 (UTC)Runer5h

Re: Lonefire + Cactus

 * Dragos effect is continuous while Cactus Bouncer's is conditional to a Plant being on the field so if Lonefire is tributed then Bouncer's effect would deactivate until the new Plant monster hits the field. I saw this on TCGplayer as well. There arent any rulings for Bouncer yet either. NYKid8295 10:08, April 5, 2010 (UTC)

I could help you with the Featured Card articles if you want. 22:57, April 5, 2010 (UTC)

WDC Idea from the Idea Forum
The idea is this: we create our own structure decks. See here. Personally, I like the idea very very much. Runer5h 02:38, April 22, 2010 (UTC)Runer5h

OK, I'll put that up. And I don't think that Alchemist is a good idea - I'd run Kycoo instead. Runer5h 00:27, April 25, 2010 (UTC)Runer5h

A little question in the rulings department...
Ok, so i was working on a request on decks for free... and i started playtesting it. I noticed that cyberdark monsters do not say "equip it to this monster as an equip spell card." Instead they just state "equip it to this monster."

So does this mean in any way that i could tribute and armed dragon lv3 to summon lv5 while equipped to a cyberdark during the standby phase?

Could i remove an equipped dragon to summon REDMD

And finally, could i use the effect of Koa'ki meiru dragon or prime material dragon while equipped to cyberdark dragon.

I know, this is probably a bit on the stupid side xD... i just wanted to make sure. TwosidedDragon 15:27, June 5, 2010 (UTC)

I want someone test this. I've been play it for a month and I think it's good, but it summoned LV5 synchro monsters hardly. Sometimes I need to use Naturia Beast and Ally of Justice Catastor
