Just some ruling question here

I summon earth opponent chain book of moon:does earth effect still activates?

Opponent summon trishula i chain bottomless trap hole does trishula effect still activates?

thanks alot

For your two scenarios,

1)
Chain 1 - Earth
Chain 2 - Book of Moon

2)
Chain 1 - Bottomless Trap Hole
Chain 2 - Trishula

Resolve both backwards.

what do you mean by resolve both backwards?

Chain 2 then Chain 1.

As long as a monster with an effect which starts with "when summoned.." is properly summoned and its effect is not negated, its effect will activate. In your case since both trishula and earth have "when summoned..." effects, as long as it is properly summoned and its effect is not negated, its effect will still activate no matter what your opponent chains. It's effect will not activate only when your opponent chains cards to negate its summon, for example, solemn warning, or chain cards to negate its effect, like effect veiler

Ok thanks all that help

Why is trishula chain 2 lol

It's not? LOL. I got scammed -_- Some judge in a tourney said before that I have to chain Bottomless Trap Hole before his Trishula selects targets. -_-

Ya, cos trishula's effect of removing is on resolution.
If you chain bottomless to it
Trishula chain 1
Bottomless chain 2

Eh? Oh, okay then I got it wrong lol! Thought it was declare upon activation. So yeah, it's

Chain 1 - Trishula
Chain 2 - Bottomless Trap Hole

the judge probably wanted to say that u cant wait for him to say "i remove yr this cards from the game" then u chain with bottomless, because Trishula is not a targetting effect. When Trishula's effect activates thats all the player needs to say "i'm using Trishulas effect", then when the effect resolves opponent chooses the cards to be removed.

So if i summon trishula opponent chain bottomless means trishula effect never get activated?

-
1. A chain is formed. (CL1. Earth - Optional Trigger Effect. CL2: Book of Moon: Quick-Play Spell) - Book of moon sets Earth, you can still search by Earth's effect, because its initial activation was not negated.
-
2. YES. Bottomless Trap Hole doesn't negate summons. Trishula doesn't need to be face-up when resolving the effect.

Both effects will still go through, think about it this way.

Scenario 1:
Summon Earth, met the condition for it's effect as Earths summon didn't get negated, the effect is put on the chain block as Chain 1. Now the response opportunity is passed on to the opponent, he chains Book of Moon, it is put in the chain block as Chain 2. As no further effects are added onto the chain, it now starts to resolve backwards, Chain 2 being the first. Chain 2 flips Earth face-down, but did not negate Earth's effect, Chain 1 now is being resolved, effect goes through of searching.

Scenario 2:
Trishula is synchro summoned, being successfully synchro summoned, it met its effect activation requirements, its effect did not get negated by anything (Effect Veiler/Herald of Orange Light), its effect is now put on the chain block as Chain 1. Now the opportunity to respond is passed on to the opponent, he chains Bottomless Trap Hole, it is put in the chain block as Chain 2. Since no further effects are added onto the chain, it will resolve backwards again, similar to Scenario 1, having Chain 2 being the first to resolve. Chain 2 will destroy and remove Trishula from play when it's resolved. However, since Chain 2 did not negate Trishula's effect in any way, Chain 1 will be resolved having Trishula's effect take place, however, as targets for Trishula's effect is determined upon resolution of the effect, the player now selects the 3 targets for Trishulas effect, thus ending the chain afterwards.

Hope you have a better idea now.

kk thanks everybody that helped
