Hello, C is ousted. A plays Life Boon on C. C then successfully withdraws. Does A gets C's 0.5 VP? C is ousted. A plays Life Boon on C. E is ousted. C then plays Life Boon on E. Then, the game times out (no player was ousted). Is this the correct result : A: 1.5; B,D: 0.5; C,E: 0 (with E's 0.5 moving to C, and then(*) C's 1 moving to E) (*) C's 0.5 can move first to A, but since Life Boon remains in play, E's 0.5 moved to C will still be given to A. [RTR 19991206] (http://groups.google.com/group/rec.games.trading-cards.jyhad/msg/c5060eba4e347f81) ) We were having some trouble reading this : http://groups.google.com/group/rec.games.trading-cards.jyhad... (http://groups.google.com/group/rec.games.trading-cards.jyhad/msg/566a13ddd4347ed1) . I think this doesn't apply to the first question (nor to the second, actually), but your word is final here :) Thanks, Pascal ~~ Life Boon Cardtype: Master Master: out-of-turn. ={Boon}= Give pool to a Methuselah with no pool to keep him or her in the game; put this card in play. During each of his or her untap phases, you can collect 1 pool from that Methuselah. The first victory point that the Methuselah wins is given to you (unless you are ousted by then). This Life Boon is then burned.

Card text: " The first victory point that the Methuselah wins is given to you (unless you are ousted by then)." And ruling (http://vekn.net/index.php/all-rulings/card-rulings-g-to-o) page: "If a player who has received a Boon receives a half of a VP (in a V:EKN tournament, e.g.), then the Methuselah who played the Boon receives the 1/2 VP. The Boon is not burned until a total of one VP has been awarded. [RTR 19991206]" > C is ousted. A plays Life Boon on C. E is ousted. C then plays Life Boon on E.

True. The half VPs are awarded (to A) simultaneously. > We were having some trouble reading this : http://groups.google.com/group/rec.games.trading-cards.jyhad...

It talks of the Methuselah who played LB withdrawing.
