Do once per turn effects reset if the monster is flipped face-down then face-up in the same turn?

 

ie: REDMD activates, book of moon sets it, book of sun flips it up, REDMD can activate again?

 

My guess is no.

 

Your guess would be wrong.

 

When a monster is flipped facedown or is removed from the Field and returned later, the "once per turn" clause is reset and it can use its effect again that turn.

 

(Exceptions seem to be effects that turn the monster facedown in the first place, such as Stealth Bird).

Scenario that got me into an argument today...

Player A attacks with Number 12. Opponent counters with Mirror Force. Number 12 discards material to protect itself, then continues to attack.

 

Is Number 12 allowed to activate its effect? After detatching a material, does Number 12 still get to attack? I was sure the answer to both was yes, but my opponent insisted otherwise.

You're correct.

Number 12 is a quick effect that can chain to Mirror Force, so it's not destroyed.

Also, since Mirror Force doesn't negate any attack it still goes through.

If an Axe of Fools is equipped to a Gearfried the Iron Knight, what happens?

I believe its effect is not continuous, so it will try to start a chain once the card is equipped. However, Gearfried's effect would be negated by that point, so it would not be destroyed.

 

But you'll need someone else to confirm that, since I'm not exactly sure.

Gearfried is trigger and always activates after the equip starts applying it's effects, so his effect would be negated.

I believe its effect is not continuous, so it will try to start a chain once the card is equipped. However, Gearfried's effect would be negated by that point, so it would not be destroyed.

So basically this.

If your opponent Monster Reborn's your Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon, and you attack it with your own Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon, banishing both, would both Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon return to your field?

 

No. Galaxy-Eyes returns monsters to their permanent controllers. If control was only temporary (Mind Control, etc) it returns to the owner, but permanent control (Reborn, Creature Swap) returns to its controller.

Question pertaining to the new Atlantean cards.

 

They say "When this card is sent to the Graveyard to activate the effect of a WATER monster: such and such happens." So my question is this. If they are sent from the HAND, do their effects activate? Or do they have to be sent from the field?

It doesn't matter where they are sent from. They could be sent from the Deck to the Graveyard by Genex Undine and still activate.

Deck Devastation Virus is active and my opponent draws D.D. Crow. Am I right to assume that since DDV is a continuous effect they have no chance to activate D.D. Crow and it is immediately destroyed?

 

They will not have an opportunity to use D.D. Crow before it is destroyed by Deck Devastation Virus.
