Going back to a thread that should definitely stay closed:
http://groups.google.com/group/rec.games.trading-cards.jyhad/msg/c9425a7620c1f1b2

LSJ, you imply that this is legal:
I have a Tupdog with a skillcard and a Soul Gem, and Heidelberg Castle.
At the end of my minion phase, the Tupdog burns by card text, triggering the
Soul Gem's card text, and another Tupdog is revealed.
It is legal to tap Heidelberg to take the Tupdog's blood and put it onto
another one of my ready vampires.
But since it is the "end of the minion phase", the new Tupdog need not hunt
before he also explodes.

Given that the above is correct, could I use a Rutor's Hand to untap an empty
vampire during that "end of minion phase" window when I tapped the Heidelberg,
leaving that vampire without having to hunt?

If yes, I am confused because I was under the impression that the "Madness
Network Fix" was created partly to avoid this situation.

If no, why is it different from Heidelberg in the illustrated example?

Thank you.

REVERSAL:

Effects applied "at the end of a minion phase" are applied "after the end of the
minion phase"

Tupdog, Thirst, and C�sar Holfield.

Would my Miguel Cordova then remain stolen until *after* my
predator's minion phase is over? How would an untapped-by-my-
predator Miguel with four master discipline cards and an Enkil Cog
interact? i.e. Is it no longer my predator's minion phase, so I can't
utilize my Enkil Cog?

No. Card text. Like Malkavian Dementia.
