I just want to be clarified about something. In the storyline infernal minions (in card text like Midget) still just pay one pool to untap right?

But only if you are on the infernal team. If you are playing "non-infernal" and you have Midget in your crypt, you still only must pay the 1.

Thanx for the tip and sorry I hadn't notice the rulling.

Just in case it wasn't clear, I suspect that the double penalty applies only to infernalist players: "Every vampire in the crypts of the players who join with the infernalists (including all vampires in the crypts of the Baali players) gains the infernal attribute (see section 4 of the rules). If the vampire's card text already identifies him as infernal, the infernal pool penalty is increased by one pool (the controller must burn 2 pool or tap that vampire" Note the "in the crypt of players who join the infernalists" statement in the beginning of the paragraph. I understand that a player with a crypt composed of, let's say, 9 Setites and 3 Baali and do NOT accept getting into the infernalist team does NOT pay double penalty if he happens to influence out a Baali, just the normal one pool per untap. best, Fabio Sooner V:EKN National Coordinator for Brazil

I suppose if you steal another minion that was infernal in another methuselah control, he still his infernal and the new controler has to pay 1 pool(or 2 pool if he had "infernal" card text), right?
