"since your last turn" definition?

IIRC, several cards have the condition "since your last turn". What does this mean exactly? Does it mean "since the start of your last turn" or "since the end of your last turn" or something else? //Petri

Like "I haven't eaten since Monday" allows that I may have eaten on Monday itself - but I haven't eaten since. "The best movie since 'Gone with The Wind'" means that the movie isn't as good as 'Gone with the Wind', but is better than anything after it. -- LSJ (vte...@white-wolf.com) V:TES Net.Rep for White Wolf, Inc.

Hmmm... so what about this particular situation then: I Mind Rape Rufina Soledad and temporarily take control of her. I make Rufina visit a Rave to give her blood to another vampire of mine and then while she is tapped play Force of Will to bleed for 2 and burn her. For my next trick, I decide to play Daemonic Possesion to ressurect Rufina Soledad into my ready region. Will I have to wait until my next turn to do this? I am almost certain that I recently read in this forum that this would be legal. Thanks in advance. Cheers, WES

"Only usable when a minion controlled by another Methuselah has been burned since your last turn. " She was not controlled by another Methuselah when she burned, so does not fulfil the requirements. >Will I have to wait until my next turn to do this? Were the card possible, no. If you were to wait until your next turn, this wouldn't "since your last turn". -- James Coupe PGP Key: 0x5D623D5D EBD690ECD7A1F She twirled a lock of hair around her forefinger and smiled B457CA213D7E6 faintly.

Timing-wise (if Rufina met the conditions specified on Daemonic Possession), per the message you quoted, it would be legal. But since Rufina wasn't controlled by another Methuselah when she was burned, Daemonic Possession can't bring her back. [ quoted text not captured ]

Timing wise, were it possible: Between that action and the next point at which your turn ends. [ quoted text not captured ]
