I'm asking specifically because I am looking at Crime Novelist and Krenko, Baron of Tin Street. If I sacrifice an artifact (ex. a treasure), will the two goblins' triggered abilities go off at the same time, so I get to choose which one goes first on the stack? Or does "sacrificing" come first, then "going to the graveyard" comes second? (Which would result in Krenko's triggered ability on top of Crime Novelist's on the stack)

You would get the mana and counter from Crime Novelist first.

Sacrificing the Treasure is part of its activation cost. You pay the cost, putting the Treasure's ability on the stack. Paying the cost triggers Novelist, and its ability is added to the stack. The stack resolves from newest to oldest. Since the Novelist's ability is the newest, it resolves fully. After that, the Treasure's ability resolves.

If I sacrifice a treasure with Crime Novelist on the field, will I get the mana from the treasure first or will the treasure's activated ability go on the stack with Crime Novelist's triggered ability? If it's the latter, which one goes on top?
