Related Rules
If an ability would produce one or more mana of an undefined type, it produces no mana instead.
Some abilities produce mana based on the type of mana another permanent or permanents “could produce.” The type of mana a permanent could produce at any time includes any type of mana that an ability of that permanent would produce if the ability were to resolve at that time, taking into account any applicable replacement effects in any possible order. Ignore whether any costs of the ability could or could not be paid. If that permanent wouldn’t produce any mana under these conditions, or no type of mana can be defined this way, there’s no type of mana it could produce.
To “tap [a permanent] for mana” is to activate a mana ability of that permanent that includes the {T} symbol in its activation cost. See rule 605, “Mana Abilities.”
An ability that triggers whenever a permanent “is tapped for mana” or is tapped for mana of a specified type triggers whenever such a mana ability resolves and produces mana or the specified type of mana.
A replacement effect that applies if a permanent “is tapped for mana” or tapped for mana of a specific type and/or amount modifies the mana production event while such an ability is resolving and producing mana or the specified type and/or amount of mana.
If an object’s enters-the-battlefield triggered ability or replacement effect refers to X, and the spell that became that object as it resolved had a value of X chosen for any of its costs, the value of X for that ability is the same as the value of X for that spell, although the value of X for that permanent is 0. This is an exception to rule 107.3i.
The tap symbol is {T}. The tap symbol in an activation cost means “Tap this permanent.” A permanent that’s already tapped can’t be tapped again to pay the cost. A creature’s activated ability with the tap symbol in its activation cost can’t be activated unless the creature has been under its controller’s control continuously since their most recent turn began. See rule 302.6.
The untap symbol is {Q}. The untap symbol in an activation cost means “Untap this permanent.” A permanent that’s already untapped can’t be untapped again to pay the cost. A creature’s activated ability with the untap symbol in its activation cost can’t be activated unless the creature has been under its controller’s control continuously since their most recent turn began. See rule 302.6.
Rulings
If you roll multiple 6s, Goblin Blastronauts’s ability will trigger for each 6 you rolled, allowing you to copy the spell or ability that caused the die roll that many times. (Attraction visits always include only a single die roll.)
If you copy a spell or ability, the spell or ability will include instructions to roll more dice. You don’t automatically carry the 6 from the original roll over to the copy. On the plus side, this gives you the chance to roll more 6s!
Activated and triggered abilities can be copied. Other abilities can’t. If the roll happened because of a replacement effect as part of a static ability (for example, the ability that sets Vedalken Squirrel-Whacker’s base power and toughness), that ability isn’t copied. Mana abilities also can’t be copied.
If you copy an Attraction visit, roll another six-sided die and visit Attractions based on the result as you normally would. If you roll another 6, that will trigger Goblin Blastronauts’s last ability again, which can let you roll another 6. You can keep visiting Attractions this way until your luck runs out or you get sick of the rides.
