Do both players get half of a 2-liner?

EXAMPLE: My opponent rescues my 2liner, and i sog the other half. Do we both share the 2-liner?

That's how I've understood it, although this situation has only happened once or twice to me. Burying the second half of the 2-Liner is much more common.

Where does the LS go, for purposes of Falling Away/Guardian?

So, theoretically you could lose your point even if you have guardian up?

You have guardian up, they rescue half, you son of god the other half. They fall away THEIR half and bury it.

The Proverbs 22:14 (‘2-line Lost Souls’) card is half rescued by player A and half rescued by player B in a multiplayer game.

Does this mean that this only applies to Multiplyer, or is this some kind of mis-print.

You know, saying things like "neither" doesn't really help anyone unless you give a real answer.

Okay, then tell me: How could I have asked the question so that your answer would have been more than one word long?

I was simply asking whether the fact that the wording implicated MP games only was significant, and I still haven't gotten an answer.

*sigh* I was never unclear on what "neither" meant; it's just that it isn't helpful. My question was not meant to be a compound question; I was just trying to understand the wording.

Oh, so maybe you could have asked, "Could someone explain the wording of Mike's ruling, particularly with regard to why it says multiplayer?"

In general, if you ask a "yes" or "no" type of question, then you must be content with a one-word answer. If you use words like explain, justify, elaborate or prove, you will get more detailed answers. Incidentally, that is why I, as a high school math teacher, rarely give multiple-choice questions on tests, because students will often not even try to generate a solution. They will just do a quick eeny-meeny-miney-mo and circle one of them.

Back to your question, it appears the word "multiplayer" is what is throwing you off, but don't let it. The entire example uses player A and player B as an example, which is only two players and is therfore completely relevant to two-player games. The inclusion of the word "multiplayer" should avert the question of whether not the rule only applies to multiplayer games since there were only two players in the example.
