If a flipp effect monster is flipped face up with skill drain on the field it doesn't get it's effect. If you use book of moon on a flipp effect monster would the flipp effect monster get it's effect?

Yes, if you chain Book of Moon to the effect of the flipped monster, it would resolve properly because it is no longer face-up at the resolution of the effect, so Skill Drain can't negate it. Same would go for something like Tribe-Infecting Virus. Activate the effect, then BoM it so it resolves.
 
If a flip effect monster is flipped face up when Skill Drain is active on the field, the effect will be negated. If you were to chain Book of Moon to the effect of the flipped monster it would be face down when the effect activates. Meaning that the effect will not be negated.



Well looks like someone just beat me to it. Oh well.
 
I just look at the card ruling for Brain Jacker and it doesn't say that it must stay face up to get its effect. It just says that it has to stay on the field to get its effect.
 
yes, however, TER or Relinquished have to remain face-up, and if you BoM a Brain Jacker after you flip it, then it forgets who it is, so to speak, and it's effect Disappears, so Brain Jacker does have to be face-up on the field for it's effect to work. The dispute over if it activates during battle is resolved as not being able to work, because it is technically no longer face-up on the field

If Pigion Soldier gets attacked it's effect resolves after the damage step still on the field face up. Now I flipp Pigion Soldier then BoM and he still gets his effect?
 
So all Flipp effects except Brain Jacker work with BoM. This doesn't make since they ruled that an equip monster could be equiped to a card face down.
 
Ack!

You've got a good point. It doesn't say "equip this face up card".

Would the chain be like this?
chain link 1: Flip effect to equip "this card" to a monster
chain link 2: Skill Drain
chain link 3: Book of Moon

And therefore resolve like this?
Book of Moon flips over the Brian Jacker
Skill Drain cannot negate effect because card is face down
"This card", a face down card, is now treated as an equip card and equipped to a monster as instructed by the flip.

Then I would ask, are the effects of controlling the monster and giving opponent additional life points considered part of the flip effect, or would they just be ignored since the card is now face down and now virtually worthless?
 
FLIP: Equip this card to a monster on your opponent's side of the field and treat it as an Equip Card. Take control of the monster that is equipped with this card. Increase your opponent's Life Points by 500 points during each of his/her Standby Phases.

The way I look at it the card has two effects the first:

Equip this card to a monster on your opponent's side of the field and treat it as an Equip Card. Take control of the monster that is equipped with this card.

The Second being:

Increase your opponent's Life Points by 500 points during each of his/her Standby Phases.

The first effect is like Mask of Darkness: FLIP: Select 1 Trap Card from your Graveyard. Add the selected card to your hand. (you would get its effect if it was flipped face down with BoM)

The second effect is like Snatch still which has to be face up in order to get its effect.

(This is only my opinion.)
