Unsigned message in Queen of Thorns forum
I didn't actually leave a message of my own on that page. I just added the unsigned template after Metagame.com's message. (see here) -- Deltaneos (talk) 17:43, 29 January 2009 (UTC)

Sig & Ruling
You can change your signature in the "My Preferences" page. Try this: ATEMVEGETA (Talk) That should always appear in red, even after you create your page. (At least, I think that's the right colour.)

Re:Wrong?
That refers to inherent Summons, like "Dark Armed Dragon". It does not apply to Trigger/Ignition/Quick/etc Effects. --Deus Ex Machina (Talk) 21:44, 6 February 2009 (UTC)
 * I'm sorry, I'm not understanding. There is a negation window for all Summons - Normal, Special, Flip, etc.  When else would you activate "Solemn Judgment" to negate a Special/Flip Summon?  --Deus Ex Machina (Talk) 22:41, 6 February 2009 (UTC)
 * As for your example, when you activate the effect of "Gorz the Emissary of Darkness", you are activating a monster effect. You are not performing a Special Summon, so "Solemn Judgment" cannot be Chained.
 * You perform the Summon when resolving the effect of "Gorz the Emissary of Darkness". This is the time at which "Solemn Judgment" would be activated.  However, you are in the middle of resolving an effect, so cards cannot be activated.  Technically, the "window" still occurs, but you can't do anything during it.

Uploading
To upload an image, you must first have the image saved on your computer. Then click "Upload image/file", click browse to select the image from your computer, then enter the name of the image page in the destination filename field. Finally click upload. (Remember to check the Image Policy to see how to name images)

In the case of the Fortress Warrior image, it can be done a bit easier since you're uploading a new version of an existing image. Click where it says "Upload a new version of this file" and select the image from your computer and click upload. -- Deltaneos (talk) 18:09, 21 February 2009 (UTC)


 * Yes, upload it as a seperate image, using EN instead of JP. For other English images, you sometimes might have to change the rarity part of the name if the English one is a different rarity than the Japanese. -- Deltaneos (talk) 19:43, 21 February 2009 (UTC)

RE:KURIBOH, DOOMCALIBER KNIGHT, DIVINE WRATH
I got the TCG rulings off the Netrep site.

Honestly, I'm not sure about it.

In the Japanese Wiki, they mention that there is an additional Sub-Step to Damage Calculation, effectively Sub-Step 4.5 (for the TCG chart) or Sub-Step 3.5 (OCG). It occurs after the monsters' ATKs/DEFs have changed. In this Sub-Step, you activate/apply effects which change the amount of damage received, such as "Kuriboh"/"Nutrient Z". You also apply the effects of "Amazoness Swords Woman"/"Mad Sword Beast"/"Waboku".

The problem is, there's a ruling that the effect of "Sanga of the Thunder"/"Suijin"/"Kazejin" activate at the same time as "Kuriboh", and those effects modify ATK, so they should not activate during the new Sub-Step. So, either (a) the effect of "Suijin" etc is REALLY weird, or (b) the Japanese Wiki is wrong.

I'm honestly not sure which one to believe. I was going to do more research tomorrow, or when I had some time. Last I checked, the effect of "Suijin" etc activates at the same time as "Injection Fairy Lily", which means the Wiki is wrong - but again, it needs more research.

RE:Tongue Twister
Its Japanese text is different.
 * When this card which was Tribute Summoned is sent from the field to the Graveyard, draw two cards. When this effect is activated, this card is removed from play.

The last sentence is a little awkward, but it pretty much means "then", not "and". --Deus Ex Machina (Talk) 01:29, 8 March 2009 (UTC)

RE:UDE deleted forums
I don't know of any. They used to archive them at COGOnline, but their archive is a little out of date and incomplete (since lately they just linked to the site).

I've heard that some people have had luck using Google and looking through their cached pages. For example, this ruling for Tytannial.

Message
Hey it's me Kirho, please try to answer my question at the ruling queries page, I would be glad if you will help me, thanks a lot.

Crystal Beast revisions
I would like to know why you deleted the Trigger effect from the Crystal Beasts. From my understanding of the Trigger effect is that if it says something to the effect of "If this card/monster is destroyed (or other effect)", it is a Trigger effect. I get this understanding from the Trigger page. I won't re-edit the pages for now, but I would like to know the reason why "If this card is destroyed while it is in a Monster Card Zone" is not a Trigger. --Astromath 00:42, 18 March 2009 (UTC)

Card Rulings:Ancient Lamp
About your edits, from where are the rulings? They don't appear on Netrep or that Judge Resource site. --Deus Ex Machina (Talk) 20:32, 31 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Hm, I'm not sure - I haven't seen that site before. It would probably be better to not use that site, at least for now.  --Deus Ex Machina (Talk) 21:15, 31 March 2009 (UTC)
 * I'm still not sure about the site. Personally, I'd rather not, since it's better to be safe than sorry.  --Deus Ex Machina (Talk) 20:23, 1 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Actually, I just had a better idea. List the rulings as "Semi-Official", and remember to include a
 * It's annoying, since they don't seem to have a name for their site other than "yu-judges". Play around with the format if you want.
 * By "the Judge's rulings", do you mean the "Rulings from Judge Forum"? Then yes, you can include them.
 * --Deus Ex Machina (Talk) 20:57, 1 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Looks good. But you just copy-and-pasted what I gave you, so you're still lazy :P --Deus Ex Machina (Talk) 21:31, 2 April 2009 (UTC)

RE:Some Problems
*groan* See, this is one reason why I didn't like the idea.

Only include the ruling if it is absolutely necessary - such as if there are no official rulings. Skip duplicated rulings and anything that should be obvious with thirty seconds of thought. And omit any rulings that are unclear or easy to misinterpret.

The "Soul Exchange" one can go. Most of the stuff on "Destiny Hero - Plasma" can be taken care of by the "See Also" at the bottom, so it can go.

Pojo should only be used if the posted is an employee of UDI/Konami. Masterdramon doesn't, so don't reference him.

For "Alien Infiltrator", you are refering to the Italian rulings? I don't think there was even an Italian Judge List, so ignore them.

That rulings for "Penguin Soldier" is correct. Flip Effects are always mandatory, and always activate, even if you choose to have them resolve without effect.

Come to think of it, stop using that site. It was a bad idea in the first place.

--Deus Ex Machina (Talk) 19:42, 3 April 2009 (UTC)


 * Just get rid of them all.
 * All the rulings for "Alien Inflitrator" were not official, so I deleted them.

Crimson Crisis Rulings
Because for me, the .pdf page takes forever to load. Although I guess you're right - we probably should link to the .pdf, for consistency's sake. --Deus Ex Machina (Talk) 22:07, 3 April 2009 (UTC)

I'd prefer that they were just removed. I haven't found a credible source that lists those rulings. --Deus Ex Machina (Talk) 19:38, 4 April 2009 (UTC)

RE:OCG Rulings update
Currently, I'm doing the last rulings that Konami releases. If I ever get caught up, I'll go back to the first rulings the released (since rulings are posted individually - not grouped by card - on the OCG FAQ).

Card Rulings:Doomcaliber Knight
They're on Netrep. -- Deltaneos (talk) 21:58, 8 April 2009 (UTC)


 * Netrep got its rulings staight from the UDE site. Those rulings were officially issued by UDE. TCG rulings have differed from the Japanese rulings or other fundamentals before. might need to be added to the page. -- Deltaneos (talk) 22:38, 8 April 2009 (UTC)

Those rulings are from the Judge List. They are official, and still apply.

And stop trying to make sense of the "Kuriboh" rulings. We've been over it twice already. --Deus Ex Machina (Talk) 18:15, 9 April 2009 (UTC)


 * That ruling was not reversed, so it still applies, regardless that the situation is impossible.
 * The intention of the ruling is still correct: "Doomcaliber Knight" will negate the effect at Chain Link 2. That part has not changed.

Exiled Force activates on the field?
Hey I was lookin'over the forums and came across a ruling about Skill Drain, in which you noted that cards like Exiled Force activate on the Field!? I don't get it, for years I thought Exiled Force activates in the graveyard, after its tributed from the field. Since it's in the graveyard, its effect can be applied because skill drain can't stop effects that activate in the graveyard, deck, or hand, but can stop them on the field. I am very confused, please clear this up for me, ty -Kywinters

RE: Exiled Force
Thanks for explaining that. I got it now :)-Kywinters

Card Rulings:Winged Rhynos
Rulings from the Judge List are still official. If we have a ruling from the Judge List, then it shouldn't be deleted. --Deus Ex Machina (Talk) 20:31, 20 July 2009 (UTC)

If you have a stored copy of the rulings, then feel free to add them. Cite the Judge List as a source. --Deus Ex Machina (Talk) 19:26, 21 July 2009 (UTC)

RE:Marshmallon Glasses japanese lore
No, it was translated correctly:
 * If this card and "Marshmallon" are face-up on your side of the field, then your opponent cannot select a monster other than "Marshmallon" as an attack target.

What's wrong? --Deus Ex Machina (Talk) 02:34, 25 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Oh, that. ....
 * It looks like a BKSS. Although, in the OCG it's the opposite - "Marshmallon Glasses" does not interfere with direct attacks (semi-officially; officially, there is no word).
 * --Deus Ex Machina (Talk) 16:27, 25 July 2009 (UTC)


 * My current theory is that with "Ring of Magnetism", you declare the attack normally, and then "Ring of Magnetism" immediately switches the attack target before players can respond to the attack. So,
 * If you control "Amazoness Tiger" and another "Amazoness" monster equipped with "Ring of Magnetism", then you declare the attack normally against "Amazoness Tiger", and then "Ring of Magnetism" switches the attack target to the other "Amazoness" monster. Then, players can respond to the attack declaration.
 * If you control two copies of "Command Knight" and one is equipped with "Ring of Magnetism", then your opponent cannot attack, so "Ring of Magnetism" cannot redirect the attack.
 * This is because "Ring of Magnetism" is a really really old card, so it is weird.


 * "Absolute End" should work the same way. You select the attack target normally, and then "Absolute End" changes the target to the player.


 * "Taunt" clearly works like "Marauding Captain". "Absolute End" and "Ring of Magnetism" will always win.


 * I'm guessing that "Staunch Defender" works like "Ring of Magnetism". The only problem is that it causes a Replay, which means that it makes monsters/players invalid attack targets, similar to "Marauding Captain"....  I'm willing to call that ruling a BKSS, and that it causes a Replay only because it has been specifically ruled to do so, and that it does not affect attack targets.
 * Versus "Absolute End", you have two competing lingering effects which are trying to do the same thing, so you only apply whichever effect resolved last, similar to "Level Limit - Area B" vs "Final Attack Orders".


 * --Deus Ex Machina (Talk) 22:39, 25 July 2009 (UTC)


 * (Tsk, that "Manage attack targets" page is misleading. It includes both Continuous Effect that prevent a player/card from being an attack target, and it includes Trigger Effects that change the attack target once it is declared.  But, it excludes Continuous Effect like "Leghul" which add additional attack targets.  That page looks more like the a fan-made thing, like the list of female monsters, which is entirely based on opinion rather than any concrete rulings -- but I digress.)


 * Correct, I'm saying that you select any monster as an attack target, and then "Ring of Magnetism" et al change the attack target to the proper monster.


 * "Absolute End" clearly changes the attack target after the attack is declared against a monster. See the ruling on it versus "Taunt".
 * "Staunch Defender" is an old-ish card, so it might not do the exact same thing that it says it does.


 * Also, replays cannot occur in the middle of a Chain. If the activation (not resolution) "Staunch Defender" causes a replay, then the replay will still occur after "Staunch Defender" resolves.


 * --Deus Ex Machina (Talk) 15:19, 26 July 2009 (UTC)


 * Right, you first attack the monster with "Raregold Armor", and then the attack gets shifted to the monster with "Ring of Magnetism".


 * If I remember correctly, there was some ruling that lingering effects are trumped by Continuous Effects. So the Continuous effect of "Ring of Magnetism" will override both "Staunch Defender" and "Absolute End".  Tsk, I should find that ruling....
 * Also, with "Absolute End" vs "Absolute End", I'm pretty sure that you would apply "Absolute End" last :P


 * --Deus Ex Machina (Talk) 01:15, 27 July 2009 (UTC)


 * No problem! Remember, it's still just a theory, so let me know if you find anything that doesn't work out.  --Deus Ex Machina (Talk) 13:38, 27 July 2009 (UTC)

RE:Help?
The first one:
 * Q. When "D.D. Warrior Lady" is attacked by "Red Dragon Archfiend", can its effect be activated?
 * A. Still being resolved.

"Still being resolved" means that they haven't decided how it will play out. There's no answer.

The second one:
 * Q. When the monster revived by this effect activates an effect, if the revived monster is not face-up on the field at resolution, then do you resolve it?
 * A. Yes, in this case the negation effect is not applied, and you resolve [the effect].

So, if "Gladiator Beast Darius" Special Summons "Gladiator Beast Gyzarus", then if you chain something like "Ring of Destruction" to the effect of "Gladiator Beast Gyzarus" and destroy "Gladiator Beast Gyzarus", then the effect of "Gladiator Beast Gyzarus" won't be negated.

The third:
 * Q. Does the effect continuously target the Gladiator Beast monster after it is Special Summoned from the Graveyard?
 * A. Yes, it continuously targets.
 * If an effect like "Book of Moon" flips "that card"/"the Special Summoned Gladiator Beast monster" face-down, then it is no longer targeted, so the "negate" and "return to your Deck when this card is removed from the field" effects will no longer be applied from then onward. If [the monster] becomes face-up again, then it will still be no longer targeted.

The fourth:
 * Q. If an effect activates on the field/Graveyard and the monster is no longer on the field/Graveyard at resolution, then is the effect not negated?
 * A. The activated effect is still negated, even if the monster is no longer on the field/Graveyard at resolution.

--Deus Ex Machina (Talk) 02:38, 19 August 2009 (UTC)


 * 2) Heh, I didn't think about that before. The Wiki also lists your quoted ruling... hm.  Yes, I'd say BKSS.


 * 4) Correct.

RE:Back to an old discussion: Card Rulings:Ancient Lamp
As much as I hate to admit it, we should probably add those rulings. --Deus Ex Machina (Talk) 20:33, February 1, 2010 (UTC)


 * Yes, we should still add them. I'm a little wary of them, but they should be official enough.  --Deus Ex Machina (Talk) 21:00, February 1, 2010 (UTC)


 * They're listed as Official on the YJ site, so we should also list them as fully official. --Deus Ex Machina (Talk) 21:04, February 1, 2010 (UTC)

RE:Rulings' Sources!
Actually, Netrep is staying around - XeroCreative took over. Hooray for not having this conversation on Pojo!

About the JERP/Wiki rulings, I'd remove the ones that aren't necessary. The ones on Card Rulings:Deck Devastation Virus and Card Rulings:Total Defense Shogun are needed to explain the contradiction, so they can stay. Likewise, the ones on Card Rulings:Cocoon of Evolution can stay, since that card is insanely complicated. -Deus Ex Machina (Talk) 19:41, March 11, 2010 (UTC)


 * Yes, it's probably better to link to Konami's site for the new rulings.


 * The Judge List rulings are technically official, since they came from the Judge List while it was getting official answers from Konami.

Hello and a message.
Hello. My name is LordGeovanni. I have an idea for this site that I would like you to look at. It is featured on my user page. The main concept is when a "recommended card list" is made, like on the Spell Counter Deck page, the cards have a reason why the card was added to the list. This prevents people having an edit war over what cards belong in the list. I have taken the advantage of using my idea on the Frog page due to multiple people arguing over Junk Warrior in this deck build. I ask that you, if you have the time, to take a look at the Frog page and please give me some feedback on my idea of spreading this to other pages. --LordGeovanni 05:13, March 16, 2010 (UTC)

RE:OCG Rulings Help!
Yay! More help!

Feel free to add more OCG rulings. I have all my User pages watched, and I double-check all the edits to the Ruling pages anyway :P

--Deus Ex Machina (Talk) 01:56, April 2, 2010 (UTC)

RE:Card Rulings:Hourglass of Courage
Huh. Apparently that ruling is in reference to its old errata, which just states that its ATK and DEF are {halved/doubled}. The ruling is useless now that it's been errata'd. I suppose we could just include a note, that says what I just said?

I'd prefer to leave the translation as accurate as possible, even if it doesn't make much sense in either _CG. --Deus Ex Machina (Talk) 18:19, April 2, 2010 (UTC)


 * The problem is, the ruling doesn't say that. All it says is what's currently on the card: you {halve/double} this card's original ATK and DEF, just like the current text says.  I'd rather not put in stuff that isn't there.
 * We could just include another note, explaining what it doesn't say. Alternately, there's a ruling on the Wiki specifically stating that its effect sets a new current ATK/DEF, not original.  We could include that as an unofficial ruling?
 * Any other ideas?
 * --Deus Ex Machina (Talk) 05:24, April 3, 2010 (UTC)


 * Sure. Something like,
 * Also note that the ruling does NOT say that the effect modifies the monster's Original ATK and DEF. In fact, the Japanese Card Wiki specifies that the effect does not modify the monster's Original ATK and DEF.
 * How does that look?
 * --Deus Ex Machina (Talk) 18:01, April 3, 2010 (UTC)


 * And once again, all is right in the world. :)  --Deus Ex Machina (Talk) 06:35, April 6, 2010 (UTC)

RE:OCG Rulings: Mentions in Other Rulings
I tried that, and things didn't work out so well. The pages became difficult to read after a while.

Right now, I use the "Mentions in Other Rulings" heading for rulings that (a) only mention the card's name, without anything else relevant (see Card Rulings:Ally of Justice Catastor versus "Ally of Justice Unlimiter") or (b) if the card is just being used as an example, and can be replaced with a handful of other cards (see Card Rulings:Ally of Justice Catastor versus "Stardust Dragon"). Rulings like these don't seem as important as others, so I place them in a separate section.

Also, why didn't you say anything when I first started doing this? :|

RE:Card Rulings:Lord of D.
I don't mind either one. Both pretty much say the same thing, anyway. --Deus Ex Machina (Talk) 23:10, April 22, 2010 (UTC)
 * Err, pardon? Neither source is official.  Both do the same thing, and mirror the official rulings that used to appear on the UDE site.  --Deus Ex Machina (Talk) 19:51, April 23, 2010 (UTC)


 * Um, UDE (and Konami) has nothing to do with Netrep. Netrep is just a fan site, which was previously run by Dillie-O, and is now run by the people at ccgdb.com.
 * You can use Netrep if you want, but both Netrep and YJ should be acceptable as references. --Deus Ex Machina (Talk) 20:36, April 24, 2010 (UTC)


 * *shrug* Both are useful. There's also sometimes a difference between the two, so we actually need both. --Deus Ex Machina (Talk) 21:58, April 24, 2010 (UTC)

It was such to be same OCG's name but it's in TCG name while under OCG Ruling. --FredCat100 12:34, April 30, 2010 (UTC)

RE:Djinn the Watcher of the Wind
Nope, he's not a "Djinn of Rituals". He's not even a "Djinn".

We probably don't need to mention anything. If they do release any support for those monsters, then the OCG text would specify a "儀式魔人" (Ritual Devil) monster, which would be a "Djinn ... of Rituals" monster in the TCG. --Deus Ex Machina (Talk) 20:26, May 6, 2010 (UTC)

RE:WTF? A TON OF RULING REVERSALS! WHAT TO DO?
We should add the new rulings, and mark them off as semi-official (since we're not getting them directly from Konami; we're getting them from someone who got them from Konami).

If there's a contradiction, then the old official rulings are still official. If we get something official saying otherwise, then strike-through the old ruling, add the new rulings, and put in the Template:Out of Date (like what was done for "Zombie Tiger"). Otherwise, just add in the new rulings and put in the Template:Out of Date, but don't strike-through the old ones.

How does that sound? --Deus Ex Machina (Talk) 07:15, June 26, 2010 (UTC)


 * Okay then, plan B: just put Template:Out of Date on the rulings page, and explain everything on the Talk page, including how the the update might not be reliable. The Template says that the info may be out of date, so this covers everything.


 * Is this better? --Deus Ex Machina (Talk) 08:48, June 26, 2010 (UTC)


 * Actually, I've been thinking it over, and I'm not sure any more. I've started a thread on Forum:E-Mailed Rulings from Konami, in case you want to chime in.  --Deus Ex Machina (Talk) 14:06, July 3, 2010 (UTC)

Hello
Hello ATEMVEGETA, I am user Montechristo95 I was searching through some pages when I bumped into your name. I visited your talk page and I saw that you had a conversation with Darth Covah about 6 months ago. I am glad I found another Greek user even by accident. I see that the main thing you are doing here is adding card rullings but maybe you want to visit my user page. You see, I translate card names to greek and I would appreciate it if you could tell me your opinion about my work. Unfortunately, I can't do the same; I know nothing about the card rullings and I rarely play the game. --Monte (talk • contribs) 00:18, July 12, 2010 (UTC)

Rulings
Hello, ATEMVEGETA, I am Crosserenti. I came across your name as I searched for a particular ruling. I use Interdimensional Matter Transporter in my deck, yet I can't see if I can use it to avoid an attack. For instance, I would have a monster attacked, and I respond by activating Interdimensional Matter Transporter. Since his attack was already declared, but the target no longer can be attacked, so...what would happen? Would the attack be no longer applicable, and my opponent can declare a new target, or, since the target is no longer there, the attacking monster attacks air, therefore negating that attack? I figured you might know. I couldn't find anything on it here, is all.

I have a question...
I am just wondering if the following combos are possible.

1. Situation: If I have a "Spear Cretin" on the graveyard, one "Spear Cretin" face-down on the field and a Mass Driver face-up on the field. After I flipped the Spear Cretin on the field face-up and Tribute it for Mass Driver for 400 damage. Can I use the effect of Spear Cretin(the one tributed) to special summon in facedown position the "Spear Cretin" on the Graveyard? And doing everything again by flipping the newly special summoned Spear Cretin? Is this an infinite loop?

2. Situation: One face down "Des Lacooda" on the field is flipped face-up, making me draw one card. Then I Summon one Tsukuyomi and use it to flip the Des Lacooda Face-down. Can I flip summon the Des Lacooda to draw another card again given the above situation?

Thanks for answering my queries....

Mage Power and Forgotten Temple
I believe Mage Power is a tad powerful, the reason being that it simply says spell and trap card you control. In that case, does this mean that if you have 4 face down cards in your spell and trap zone, one field card, and Mage Power equipped, that the monster gains 3000 ATK (500x6)? I think so, hence why I think it is a tad powerful, especially when it is searched out by Power Tool Dragon. With its 2300 ATK originally, that makes it a whopping 5300 ATK very quickly, and all you need to do is run a synchro deck with Mage Powers in it. So am I wrong on how it works, or is that entirely legal and easily used?

Another thing I wanted to ask is about Forgotten Temple of the Deep. When the Special Summon occurs, do I choose the battle position? If so, could I theoretically place it face down? Just curious.

Crosserenti (talk • contribs) 01:54, August 23, 2010 (UTC)

-Thank you for answering, and I believe I have expanded on the power tool dragon combo. All I am missing is a Field Spell Card that increases a machine-type's ATK (One may exist, I simply have found one yet.) Have a field card out the doesn't hurt your ATK on Power Tool Dragon. Have out Mage Power and Big Bang Shot on Power Tool Dragon, along with Solidarity (in a Machine-only Deck) and Machine Assembly Line. Power Tool Dragon's ATK should be 6700 ATK. Then play Limiter Remover. 6700x2 is 13400, plus pierce means no defense position monster can prevent its damage to the life points. Instant win, and you simply need to draw Solidarity, Machine Assembly Line, the machines used to synchro summon Power Tool Dragon, the field spell, and Limiter Remover. Three of each card, save for Limiter Remover, and you can easily win turn 3.

Black Rose Dragon
Hi, I have a question. If I successfully synchro summoned my Black rose dragon and chose to use it's effect that destroys all cards on the field, can I "chain" that effect and special summon Red-Eyes Darkness Metal Dragon by removing the face up Black Rose Dragon before it gets destroyed by its own effect? Or will my Red-Eyes Darkness Metal Dragon end up being destroyed too? Butterflyelma (talk • contribs) 00:25, August 28, 2010 (UTC)Butterflyelma

Special Summoning Ritual and Fusion Monsters
In the page for Ritual summon and Fusion summon, it is stated that they (Fusion and Ritual Monsters) can't be Special summoned from the grave unless they are properly Ritual/Fusion Summoned properly.
