That's different. They have trigered/static abilities that work from the graveyard, but in case of Wonder you have to mind the timestamp rule.
If Humility is in play, then Wonder enters the graveyard, your creatures will have flying (if you control an island).
If Wonder is in the graveyard, then Humility enters play, your creatures will lose flying.
Same is true for Anger.

If there is a Yixlid Jailer, Humility, and an Opalescence out, and a player cycles Krosan Tusker will they get to search for a basic land? Does the answer change depending on what came into play first or if there were 2 Opalescences?
Now you are getting rediculous. Yes, you get to search, and no it doesn't matter. Tusker's ability is a triggered ability when you cycle it. Also, it is a Creature card, not a creature when you do this. Jailer has nothing to do with any of it since he has no abilities, but even if he did, it wouldn't matter.
How to handle Humility-
If your opponent plays it: Ask him any rule regarding Humility and Layers. If he cannot answer them, then punch him in the face, take the Humility and rip it to shreds.
If you play it: Allow your opponent to ask any questions regarding Humility and Layers. If you can't anwer them, let your opponent punch you in the face, take your Humility and rip it to shreds.
Why does every judge have a playset of Humilities? To keep them out of circulation.

You're not just wrong, rules say you're a dick!
Bladewing's question is not obvious. Yixlid Jailer normally stops Krosan Tusker from triggering (because "when you cycle" triggers from the graveyard, since the hand is a hidden zone).
He is basically asking "With Humility and Opalescence in play, do other creatures retain their abilities?". If yes, then Jailer is active and Tusker doesn't trigger.

Sorry I probably should have put that rule in my post to avoid confusion. So does anyone know the answer to this or will it just make judges hate you if it ever comes up?
How do glorious anthem and humility work together? Would creatures be 1/1s or 2/2s?
Thanks in advance
Timestamp only applies if two things happen in the same layer.
Humility happens in 6b, Anthem in 6d.Inside layer 6, apply effects in a series of sublayers in the following order:
(6a) effects from characteristic-setting abilities;
(6b) all other effects not specifically applied in 6c, 6d, or 6e;
(6c) changes from counters;
(6d) effects from static abilities that modify power and/or toughness but don't set power and/or toughness to a specific number or value; and
(6e) effects that switch a creature's power and toughness.
So the critters will ALWAYS be 2/2.

Taurelin07 is correct. Layer 6d specifically states that power and toughness setting effects do not apply here. So humility only applies in layer 6b. Anthem applies in 6d, so anthem is always applied later, regardless of time stamps.
So creatures will always be 2/2's no matter which order the humility and anthem were palyed.

The abilities trigger from the graveyard and if Jailer is in play, he makes them lose those "When *bla* is cycled"-Ability, thus you won't get to search lands, get Tokens or anything else.
When Humility is in play, Jailer loses his static ability, thus all cards in all graveyards regain their abilities.

I have a few questions that came up recently regarding Humility.
1) A mishra's animated with a humility already is in play becomes a 2/2 correct?
2) Said mishra's goes back to being a land eot correct?
3) Said mishra's cannot pump itself, but can be pumped by a 2nd non-creature mishra's in play too correct?
4) An arcbound ravager is a 0/0 with one +1/+1 counter...Humility is played...does ravager become a 1/1 with one +1/+1 counter? (in essence making it a 2/2)
5) If opponent gave another counter before Humility hit play-->0/0 w/2 +1/+1 counters...what would happen?...a 3/3?...a 1/1?
6) If ravager comes down after Humility in play...what then?
Thanks,

All correct, so far. @2: It is always a land, but EoT it stops being a creature. That's what you meant.
All the counters apply, so a 1/1 with 2 counters becoms 3/3, effectively.
The same. Modular says: "Modular N" means "This permanent comes into play with N +1/+1 counters on it".
And such "comes into play" abilities are not touched by Humility.

wrong.."comes into play" abilities are not touched by Humility
For example ringleader doesn"t trigger with humility in play.
I'm not talking about triggered abilities "When <this> comes into play", but about abilities like that of Ravager that have the form "This comes into play with xy" or "This comes into play tapped" and so on. These are static abilities that modify how the permanent comes into play, and these are NOT removed by Humility.

Awesome, thanks a lot guys!
Is there any good way to explain why mishra's/nantuko's monastery work the way they do without going into the whole layers and timestamp argument?
I was pretty sure about the mishra's thing in a tournament, but I had no way of explaining it to my opponent so he would understand/accept that this was how it works.
If not, c'est la vie...I just thought maybe somebody had played enough with humility that they had a handy dandy little explanation that they used for such a frequent occurrence as the mishra debate with a newish opponent.
Thanks,
-TG
They work the way they do because of layers and timestamp.
You might try bringing in the relevant section of the Comp Rules with you, or just rely on a judge. If the judge does not know how it works, then you likely have bigger problems.
