Two Questions...

Hi Folks... I have not been here for quite a while, so excuse me if my questions have been answered already! Here they are: 1.: What happens if I use my Followers of Seth to permanently steal from an opposing Methuselah a Minion that has been made a Blood Doll before this theft? Is this Minion now my Blood Doll, is he still his/hers or is he no longer a Blood Doll at all??? 2.: The situation: a four-player-game, my prey has two pool left and so has my prey's prey. They both have three Vampires tapped. Now I call Domain Challenge and win the vote. Both must immediately pay three pool and so are ousted at the same time. The question: Is first MY prey ousted, I get the six pool for ousting him,THEN his prey becomes mine, is ousted too and I get another six pool _OR_ does my prey get the six pool for his prey being ousted before he himself dies and so has 2+6-3=5 pool after all is done??? We created house rules to cover up such situations (Blood Doll is removed in case 1., I get 12 pool in case two) but I would really like to hear other's opinions... Thanks in advance... Marc

Is this Minion now my Blood Doll, is he still his/hers or is >he no longer a Blood Doll at all??? It is now your Blood Doll. The Blood Doll card has errata stating that it is controlled by the controller of the minion that it is on. It is the only Master Card with such errata - any other Master Cards will continue to be controlled by whoever played it (although some, like Skill cards, cannot be "turned off" by the controller). >2.: The situation: a four-player-game, my prey has two pool left and so >has my prey's prey.

The two are ousted. You get 1 victory point for ousting your prey. Your prey gets 1 victory point for ousting her prey. You get six pool for ousting your prey and not being ousted at the same time. Your prey doesn't get six pool because she is ousted at the same time as her prey. >We created house rules to cover up such situations (Blood Doll is >removed in case 1., I get 12 pool in case two) but I would really like >to hear other's opinions... These are more than opinions, they're official (the latter comes from the rulebook - although the rulebook mistakenly says "same turn" when it means "same time" - it has official errata to correct that). >Thanks in advance...
