Hello people of the internet and wonderful rule gurus. This is a post questioning the use of these two cards together: Bottomless Vault Urban Burgeoning
This has caused multiple arguments on the table and I would love to know what other people think about the burgeoning causing the bottomless vault to trigger upon other players turns.
I personally believe that it does not but I would love to see what other people think.
Thanks,

Oracle text: At the beginning of your upkeep, if Bottomless Vault is tapped, put a storage counter on it.
The trigger of Urban Burgeoning is pretty much irrelevant, except that it untaps the vault, and when it reaches your upkeep untapped it will not gain a storage counter.
Thank you so much for the reply, that is what I believed but my friend insisted that the older rules were weird. Thanks!
To be fair, the older rules *were* weird....which is why a lot of them changed. You'll see in your original post that you can click on the cards you tagged. If you click on those, you will see the more up to date wordings for the cards in question. Always use these wordings (the Oracle text which comes from gatherer.wizards.com) as many older cards use archaic and/or confusing wording.

Of course, you could tap it and remove 0 counters on the end step before your turn begins to have it tapped on your turn. Then on your opponents' turn it untaps again and you have it available for mana if you need it.
