Jetroid's Effect

I just wanted to know, if Jetroid's Effect was Continuous or Trigger!
It says, at the time, this card is selected as an Attack Target... doesn't that mean, that Selecting it as an Attack target is the triggering event?
or is it like Makyura the Destructor with a Continuous Effect?

• If "Ancient Gear Golem" attacks "Jetroid", the controller of "Jetroid" cannot use its effect.

RONIN/Netrep says "Use the Effect" which may mean that its Continuous but I am not completely sure of it

Jetroid"s effect will activate, but it will resolve without effect because it's illegal to activate Trap Cards when "Jinzo" is out on the field. It is not "legal" to activate a Trap Card in this instance even though "Jetroid"s effect activates.

Kyhotae says "Activate" which would mean Trigger!

When Makyura is sent to the graveyard, can you play a trap like Michizure from your hand, or would you miss the timing because his effect activates when he's already in the grave? I have a feeling I just answered my own question, but can someone give me a definite answer?

Makyura is a Continuous Effect, so it does not "activate", so you do not miss the timing for anything.

Ah, ok, that would explain it. For some reason, I was thinking that it was a Trigger effect, or something...
halfdemoninuyas said:
Probably because of Jetroid or the games...

Even this guy tells that Jetroid is Trigger!

Corpse in his list on Monsters and their effect types says that Jetroid's effect is Continuous..! There are a few mistakes in that list but many are correct.

There are so many different opinions on its effect with people from different forums...O_O
Since Kyhotae is a UDE Level 2 Judge..... So, can a Level 2 or higher Judge confirm if its Effect is Continuous or Trigger?

The Text "At the time, this card is selected as an attack target...you can" is similar to "When this card is selected as an Attack Target...you can". I would love to see Netrep/RONIN showing what kind of effect it has since it is confusing so many people including the judges! ^_^!

I suspect it's Continuous. Jetroid merely opens up a new way for you to activate a Trap Card (i.e. from the hand). However, if cards like Jinzo and Ancient Gear Golem are around and preventing Trap Cards from activating, you can't take advantage of Jetroid's extra allowance. Nothing at all happens in that case (no activating effects, no Chain Links, nothing).

• Both players can chain to the Trap Card that is activated by the effect of "Jetroid" (the controller can activate several Trap Cards from his hand in a chain).
This ruling for Jetroid suggests that the Trap Card is activated, not the effect of Jetroid. Therefore JEtroid's effect is not one that activates, i.e. it is Continuous.
