Guest Posted August 20, 2008 Report Share Posted August 20, 2008 cept you can't run Marshmellon in Type 2 so it wouldn't help. Besides one word. Nuke Fixed' Muphry's lawFrom Wikipedia' date=' the free encyclopediaJump to: navigation, searchNot to be confused with Murphy's law . Muphry's Law is an adage that states that "if you write anything criticizing editing or proofreading, there will be a fault of some kind in what you have written". John Bangsund of the Victorian Society of Editors (Australia) identified Muphry's Law as "the editorial application of the better-known Murphy's Law" [1'][2] and set it down in 1992 in the Society of Editors Newsletter.[3] The law, as set out by Bangsund, states that:“ (a) if you write anything criticizing editing or proofreading, there will be a fault of some kind in what you have written;(b) if an author thanks you in a book for your editing or proofreading, there will be mistakes in the book;© the stronger the sentiment expressed in (a) and (b), the greater the fault;(d) any book devoted to editing or style will be internally inconsistent.[3] ” A similar law: "McKean's Law: Any correction of the speech or writing of others will contain at least one grammatical, spelling, or typographical error" has been set out by lexicographer Erin McKean.[4] Similar laws have also been coined, usually in the context of online communication, under the names of Skitt's Law, Hartman's Law of Prescriptivist Retaliation (or The Law of Prescriptive Retaliation), Bell's First Law of Usenet, Tober's lor, Gaudere's Law, Naruki's Law and Greenrd's Law, and it has also been called Merphy's law. [5] It has been pointed out that Ambrose Bierce recognised the truth of Muphry's Law, without naming it:“ In neither taste nor precision is any man's practice a court of last appeal, for writers all, both great and small, are habitual sinners against the light; and their accuser is cheerfully aware that his own work will supply (as in making this book it has supplied) many "awful examples". ” —Ambrose Bierce, from Write it Right: A Little Blacklist of Literary Faults (1909)[6] Muphry's law was brought to many people's attention when it was cited by Stephen J. Dubner in the Freakonomics section of The New York Times in July 2008, when he described accusing the The Economist of a typo in referring to Cornish pasties being on sale in Mexico, assuming that "pastries" had been intended. The Economist responded by sending him a Cornish pasty.[7] As Dubner's fault was the result of ignorance (of the existence of pasties), rather than a typo or grammatical error, it might be said that it was not within the spirit of Muphry's law, as made more explicit by McKean's law.

Archbaron Larry Posted August 21, 2008 Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 Doesn't Dimensional Prison negate one attack each turn as well? I mean' date=' the monster that gets removed can't attack that turn...and it can't attack the next turn...or the turn after that...[/quote'] I think that's...correct o_O No, that isn't correct. I personally own a Dimensional Prison and it's just a plain old Sakeretsu Armor except it removes from play. It can't be reused. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally own a Dimensional Prison and it's just a plain old Sakeretsu Armor except it removes from play. It can't be reused. It is technically... When you active D-Prison the monster can no longer attack. Ever. So in theory it is just the same as this card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darkerai Posted August 25, 2008 Report Share Posted August 25, 2008 I honestly can't believe they edited the picture of the card and put legs on it =/ Wait legs?! (looks at english version)weird...anyway very good card with lots of stall uses just not the right format...wait that would be considering that this frmat would ever end and that is like trying to convince people that pokemon won't have a 5th generation.
