More than 1 influence producing card with 1 influence costing ability

By Bomb, in 2. AGoT Rules Discussion

Hey guys -

I am pretty sure the answer is "You can only use the ability once with a multi-influence producing card." but it would be beneficial to know for sure.

Let's say I have Arya Stark CS where I can "Any Phase: Kneel 1 influence to choose a character with stealth or renown. Until the end of the phase, that character loses those keywords, and Arya Stark gains any keyword that was lost in this way."

Can I use X of the influence that is on a card to use this ability synchronously X times? It would make a huge difference in game play and with the Hand of the King title at least.

I know you definitely cannot power any other abilities with the same influence producing card unless you were able to re-stand it, but if you can use all of it's influence to power the same ability multiple times during the same player action window, I can see all influence being used.

Note: A counter-argument I can think of would be pertaining to events being one-time use yet some needing the cost of influence.

So no, you cannot "synchronize" multiple triggers of the same ability just because you overpaid influence the first time you trigger it.

Thanks ktom - that's exactly what I had thought, but I needed to ask to be sure.
