Rules Q&A

• Q: I play out of Twin Forks and resolve a Rampant Paranoia.
  My opponent attacks me.
  First action, I duel his guy and win.
  His action he uses a kill action on the guy I duelled with (HE TOTALLY HAS A PLAN HE ISNT BAD HONEST).
  Does the trait of TFC get burned from this action, or does the Rampant Paranoia prevent the trait from being burned?
  *I know this is a variation on the 2 delayed negations applying, but I was wondering if the wording on Rampant changed things.
  A: Nope, there is no difference between this and a double-delayed-negation conflict in the timing/priority due to Rampant Paranoia's slightly different wording.
  The active player would choose whether Rampant's delayed prevention or Twin Forks' delayed prevention would trigger first, and then the second delayed prevention would have nothing to cause it to trigger because the first negated that trigger (per the timing sequence here).

• Q: Okay, so I tried looking this up and did not find anything on this (it is probably well known, but I haven't played much since TSE was announced so, bear with me) :
  Twin Forks City reads: After an action resolves that created a duel your Personality won during a Combat Segment, once per Personality per battle: Negate his next bowing, movement, or destruction from other player's cards' effects.
  So I would assume that this means that: A. If I have X people at a battle (for purposes let's say 3), and they each win a duel *in that same battle* they would all get a negation put on them. B. If there are two battles at separate provinces (let's say I'm defending) : a personaility that wins a duel at one battle, moves into the other battle and wins one there as well, would thus have *two* negations on them, correct? (And back to the Kensho-in XP rulings? )
  Thanks!
  A: 1. Yes. Each of your Personalities can "get a negation" by each winning a duel.
  2. Yes. If a Personality can win duels in two separate Combat segments, he "gets two negations". And - as with Kakita Kensho-in exp - since each negation effect scrubs its trigger, each negation will negate a different effect. Alex Jones, "TFC Trait and Multiple Usages", 17 Oct 2012
