Raging Ravine double activation?
At last FNM, one of my friends was playing against a wall deck and was attacking with raging ravine.
He was paying the activation cost twice, and then claiming that when RR attacked it would get two +1+1 counters. I do not think it should get the 2 counters, as I do not think that the ability stacks.
Anybody got the final word on this one?

From the official rulings:
[quote]Each time you activate Raging Ravine's last ability, it gains an instance of the triggered ability "Whenever this creature attacks, put a +1/+1 counter on it." For example, if you activate the last ability twice and then attack with Raging Ravine, both of the triggered abilities it gained will trigger. It will get a total of two +1/+1 counters.[/quote]
It's the same concept as Dragonsoul Knight. Making it a dragon multiple times may not do anything but giving it +x/+y multiple times does stack.
Thus the same with Raging Ravine, the ability which gives it +1/+1 counters when it attacks can be put on there multiple times and thus trigger multiple times. There's nothing in there that conflicts with stacking it so it works.

Ok, so coming from the same perspective, Rage Nimbus has: 1colorless1red make target creature attack if able. So can you pay the cost multiple times for multiple creatures?

If you can pay the costs and nothing says you can't do it then you can do it.
