Rulings

Paralyze can be cast targeting a creature which is already tapped.

Paying the cost is optional.

The creature can only be untapped using Paralyze once per turn.

Two Paralyzes are not cumulative. Paying either one will untap the creature.

This is a change from the most recent wording. As was the case in the past, Paralyze itself has the last triggered ability, rather than granting that ability to the enchanted creature.
