Hi, let me explain the situation.
3 players
A : Lot of pool ; higher vampire's capacity : 8
B : 1 pool ; higher vampire's capacity : 11
C : 5 pools ; higher vampire's capacity : 6
so B call a referundum : Reins of power and it pass:
A, B and C gain 6 pools then
A lost 0 pool ; B lost 3 pools ; C lost 5 pools.
B is ousted and C too.
question : who is ousted first ? and why ?
B gain 1 VP ?
B gain 6 pools ?
Thank you !
Unless I'm very much mistaken:
if A pred of B pred of C pred of A
A gains 6 pool and loses 6, ends at "the same lot of pool"
B gains 6 pool and loses 8, ends at 1 - 2 = -1 pool -> dies
C gains 6 pool and loses 11, ends at 5 - 5 = 0 pool -> dies
they both die at the same time and B and A both get a VP, but B doesn't get 6 pool as reward for VP as he's dead.
if A prey of B prey of C prey of A
A gains 6 pool and loses 11, ends at "lot of pool" -5 and supposedly "lot" being greater than 5 lives
B gains 6 pool and loses 6, ends at the same 1 pool as before -> lives
C gains 6 pool and loses 8, ends at 5 - 2 = 3 -> lives
everyone lives

If B has gained 6 and burned 8 (for A's vampire), surely B has lost 2 pool?

B and C are ousted simultaneously.

C gains 0 VP. (Not having ousted anyone.)
B gains 1 VP (due to ousting C), and no pool (due to simultaneously being ousted).
A gains 1 VP and 6 pool for ousting B, and 1 VP for being last man standing.
I guess the example is just an example, so whether it's perfect or not shouldn't really matter for the real question.
If you're ousted at the same time as your prey, you gain the victory point but not the pool. Your predator will gain the usual 1vp and 6 pool, of course.
On a table where A->B->C->D, B and C might get ousted at the same time. This would lead to A getting 1vp and 6 pool, B getting 1vp and being out of the game, C being out of the game.
