Can a card's effect target the card it is about to cover?
Several posters agree on this order, and the designer's committed-card rulings support it.

No. A card you play is committed first; once it lands it covers the card beneath, and only then does its own effect resolve. A covered card is no longer uncovered, so the played card's effect, such as a flip or Light 0, cannot reach it unless the text says 'covered'. The effect can still reach other uncovered cards on either side, including the card you just played.
