Sorry but your questions are difficult to understand, I assume English isn't your first language. Please try and explain in greater detail as to what the problems you are having.

You roll the dice and try and complete 1 task on the Adventure card. You try and complete one Task at a time on the Adventure card.

If you are unable to complete all the tasks on the Adventure card then you fail and take the Penalties listed on the Adventure card (the symbols in the red box in the lower left corner of the Adventure card).

I'm not sure why you mention Lingering Effects. Failing an Adventure card has nothing to do with Lingering Effects, not directly at least. The only time a Lingering Effect will trigger on failing an Adventure is when "A Warning... ...Of a Curse" is in play. If you fail an Adventure then and have to lose a Stamina or Sanity point then the Lingering Effect will cause you to lose an extra one.

I'm not sure how this is different from your first question? It doesn't really matter if you tried to complete an Adventure cards before, the same Penalty applies and again, Lingering Effects do not apply directly when you fail an Adventure.

I'm not sure you are using the same terms the rest of us are. There is no such thing as a "quest", do you mean Adventure cards? There is one (and only one) Lingering Effect that adds Investigations to tasks "A Warning... ...Of a Conspiracy". Is your question about this card? It means that if a Task has an Investigation requirement then you need to add one to each such requirement.

Sorry for my bad english , but have one question have one card call A Warning of conspiracy ( lingering effect is All tasks that require at least 1 investigation result require an additional investigation card result ) is effect is cumulative o.O or just one ?

thanks xris for help

I think some examples would be the best way to explain.

Riot In The Streets
Task 1: 3 Investigations
Task 2: 9 Investigations

is now

Task 1: 4 Investigations
Task 2: 10 Investigations

R'Lyeh
Task 1: 1 Investigation, 1 Investigation
Task 2: Lore, Lore, Peril, Terror

is now

Task 1: 2 Investigation, 1 Investigation
Task 2: Lore, Lore, Peril, Terror

If fact there is some doubt how R'Lyeh should be handled. Some say that Task 1 should be 2 Investigation, 2 Investigation .

I think that since the Lingering effect states "require an additional investigation result", it means that just one Investigation result on a Task is required to be increased by 1. Play it the way you wish, there is no official ruling about this.

well if i fail in adventure quest , that lingering effects occurs one time , but another investigador try again and fail , effect occur again (+1 investigation and +1 for another fail o.O ) very hard .

The lingering effect in question does not have anything to do with failing adventures. The effect begins when the mythos card is drawn. Failing an adventure does not change the effect unless the effect specifically relates to failing adventures.

Ah, I think I understand what your question is now.

Are you asking if the following happens.

Example, Adventure card is Riot In The Streets , Lingering Effect is A Warning... ...Of a Conspiracy

Riot In The Streets
Task 1: 3 Investigations
Task 2: 9 Investigations

is now

Task 1: 4 Investigations
Task 2: 10 Investigations

Investigator A fails the Riot In The Streets Adventure, is it now

Task 1: 5 Investigations
Task 2: 11 Investigations

Investigator B fails the Riot In The Streets Adventure, is it now

Task 1: 6 Investigations
Task 2: 12 Investigations

If this is your question, then no , the Lingering Effects are not cumulative.

The Lingering Effects for A Warning... ...Of a Conspiracy does not say "Each time Adventure is failed, an additional investigation result is required".

ahhhhhhhhhhh thanks for clarifications man
