more to activate unless they're mana abilities.
I was going to included triggered abilities in this, but I didn't think that would pay well with non-optional triggers: does that make some sort of combo deck viable when you can't pay the cost of a trigger that hurts you? I fear it would need to be changed to a Mana Leak-esque cost increase.
Yowsers. It's probably plenty good enough just hosing all activated abilities across the board. I do like the way you make an exception for this one permanent; that's a fun mechanic. You could certainly extend that idea onto other auras: "Creatures other than enchanted creature get -1/-1"? Or even "Creatures other than enchanted creature get +1/+1"!
That could definitely be fun. I also considered making it something like the Guardian's Magemark cycle, but this is a more novel twist.
I'm not sure whether or not this wording includes Ghostly Prison and I'm not sure whether or not I want it to :)
No, Ghostly Prison's not got any activated abilities anywhere. Activated abilities always have a colon.
Is Ghostly Prison even a triggered ability?
Nope. It just modifies the rules for the declare attackers step.
