Once the first interrupt stops you're still losing by removal, so by all rights you should be removed from the game.

In that case in a defeat-by-numbers situation you should also only get the chance to play one enhancement. You're losing by numbers, and if you don't stop it after 1 enhancement then you 'wasted' your initiative.

That, of course, makes no sense, and neither does allowing only 1 interrupt/negates to be played. Chain of negate scenarios happen quite frequently up here in the northeast, and it's just a part of the game mechanics. If you're losing, you get the chance to play a card, period. After the card's been played, you check to see who's losing now and then the losing character gets to play and enhancement. If you're in a removal scenario and you play an interrupt-play-next card, it allows you to play next regardless of the next card's ability. Then when the interrupt ends, you're still losing by removal so you can still play another negate/interrupt. It's a similar concept as continuous initiative from Ignore/Repel abilities.

you can abuse it all you want- your still going to losing by removal and im going to get a lost soul

yeah, except for doms, cards that target LS ( like belshazzars feast or DoU) and, of course playing a battle winner on you during my final interrupt. 

most of the time you need two cards per interrupt: one to interrupt and play next, and another to do something nasty.  Good luck stringing together a lot of those together, or even doing such a combo more than once in a game.  I honestly think if this could be exploited to the point of abuse, it would have been done by now.

It can be done in T2.  However, I think the majority of players are focused on playing the ideal "winner" on the card after the interrupt.  I think some of our better players could come up with a pretty good deck design that relied entirely on a meta game of collateral damage.

Interrupt, do something unexpected, interrupt, do something unexpected,..., withdraw.

cmon- you guys act like this is new or something. If you want to know about brand new strategies incorporated into the game of Redemption you should check out (EDITED BY THE ROSES)

or maybe if i said something i wouldnt get to see any other new sets after this one:p

And I love how "R.O.S.E.S" Changes every time someone edits themselves. 

They are not editing themselves. There happens to be several members of the secret society that edit in their own way. That is why RoSeS is plural.

YMT,
I understand your confusion as I was unaware of this rule until last year.  I have only seen it occur 2-3 times out of over a thousand of games in T1, so it does little to even affect T1 play.  In T2, it happens more frequently, but as people said, usually the player will not want to waste two interrupts on the same battle.
