Tivit and Academy Manufactor
Asked by Wbg1415 2 years ago
If I have in play Tivit, Teller of Secrets ;) in play and deal combat damage to an opponent and I have Academy Manufactor in play as well, will I make a total of 15 Artifacts? Does Academy Manufactor ability trigger per opponent when they chose to either give me clues or treasures?

Academy Manufactor does not trigger - it is a replacement effect which changes how an element of the game functions. They do not trigger or go on the stack, they simply change how something is done. Replacement effects contain the words “if” and “instead” (while triggered abilities use “whenever”, “when”, or “at”).
Read Academy Manufactor as changing every instance of “create a treasure token” to “create a treasure, clue, and food token” (and same for “create a food” and “create a clue”).
Beyond the mistaking the replacement effect for being a trigger, you are right in terms of how many tokens you end up with - 15 (assuming a 4 player game). Each opponent gives all three regardless of vote for 9, and you get two votes each giving all three, for 6, totalling 15.
