Honest, Mind Crush, and Procedural errors
from UDE's Player Management Forums
Hello fellow judges,
I have a question about a possible scenario with Honest and Mind Crush:
Player A has a Gigaplant, Player B has a Lumina. Player A controls a face-down Mind Crush.
Player A moves into the battle phase and declares an attack with Gigaplant. There is a pause (about 1 second)... player B begins to motion into dropping two Honests from his hand (the first one was even visible to player A, it is THAT close to hitting the table).
Player A: "WAIT! I HAVE MIND CRUSH!" *flips the trap card*. Player A calls Honest.
Now, I'm not sure how I would rule on a sloppy play like this one. What penalties, if any, should be distributed for the players? I'm aware that there was *technically* nothing wrong done, but it was sloppy play... both on Player A's part for "forgetting" his own card, but for player B assuming that the damage step had been entered immediately.
Thoughts?
