Forum:Missing the timing Q

If a monster is Tributed for a set does it miss the timing because I know that Geartown does not miss the timing if you set another field spell and if so why not is setting a card not something that happens like a summon and can my opponent respond to a set like he can to a summon?79.114.18.196 (talk) 04:52, October 1, 2012 (UTC)

They work differently, you still miss the timing.

Can you please explain how they work differently86.125.237.112 (talk) 12:29, October 1, 2012 (UTC)

when you tribute a monster, it is send to the grave, then a set monster appears from your hand on the field, so the last action being made is the monster being set. therefor missing the timing of monsters that were tributed. and your opponent cannot activate cards on a set, unless, the effects say so. so your opponent cannot activate Torrential Tribute or Solemn Warning when you set a monster.D-range (talk • contribs) 12:49, October 1, 2012 (UTC)

And how is that different from setting a new field spell because geartwon doesn't miss the timing? 86.125.237.112 (talk) 12:53, October 1, 2012 (UTC)

when you activate your new field spell, the opponent's field spell isn't destroyed untill resolvation, because if the new field spell is negated, the old one survives. so the last thing to happen is the field spell destroyed, the activation of the new field spell is done when the spell is destroyed.D-range (talk • contribs) 13:19, October 1, 2012 (UTC)

I meant if you set a field over your Geartown then why doesn't it miss the timing 86.125.237.112 (talk) 13:50, October 1, 2012 (UTC)

In the Official Card Game, an "Advanced Summon" refers to both Tribute Summon and Tribute Set. (Even though Normal Summon and Normal Sets have separate names, and that "Advanced Summon" face-down doesn't count as a "Summon")

"Advanced Summons" do count towards the last thing that occurred, making things miss the timing.

I think I understand the question. "Since you miss the timing on Optional Trigger Effects when you Tribute Set, why wouldn't you miss the timing on Geartown's Optional Trigger Effect when you Set a Field Spell over it?"

By that logic, first the "Geartown" is destroyed by game mechanics, and then the new Field Spell Card is Set. Correct? Designless Square (talk • contribs) 15:46, October 1, 2012 (UTC)

If Square's comment is true, then all those Gear Town deck are being cheating. If it's not, then it still workable... --iFredCat 16:15, October 1, 2012 (UTC)

That ruling is true, geartown gains its effect when a new field spell is set, although geartown would miss the timing, so i guess this would be a BKSS.D-range (talk • contribs) 16:28, October 1, 2012 (UTC)

In the DS game WC 2011, if Player A have a "Geartown" face-up, then Player A activates a Field Spell, it miss the timing. However, if Player B have a "Geartown" face-up, then Player A activates a Field Spell, it won't miss the timing. I don't know if it's how should work in real life or if it's a game bug. --Missign0 (talk • contribs) 17:39, October 1, 2012 (UTC)

Don't forget to mention that if player A would set the new field spell instead of activating it, Geartown will NOT miss the timing.D-range (talk • contribs) 18:09, October 1, 2012 (UTC)
