Rulings

(9/25/2006)
Clockspinning can affect any kind of counter, not just a time counter. The type of counter isn't chosen until resolution. Whether to add or remove a counter isn't chosen until resolution.

If the target is a permanent and it has no counter on it when Clockspinning resolves, nothing happens.
