This is first time it happened to us. My friend was turned into toad, and before his next turn he lost a turn. Does that count as one turn of being a toad, or does he still have 3 turns left being toad because he lost a turn and therefor it doesnt countas using a turn.
Being a toad and loosing turns
I believe that missing a turn would not count as a turn being a Toad. Otherwise, it would likely have been worded to be a Toad for 3 Rounds, instead of 3 Turns.
I disagree, you are still a toad and can still be attacked and such.

Actually, there was a problem with several cards stating "turn" while it should have been "round". Take for example the Swashbuckler. I believe it would be fair to assume being a toad lasts three rounds, not three turns. I did a quick search for toad in the FAQ and there was no mention of this particular issue yet, unfortunately.
People will go either way on this and I can see both sides.
The Toad card states "...for three turns". If you are forced to miss a turn then you still have to fulfill the 3 turns obligation. If an FAQ comes out stating it should be rounds instead of turns then fair enough.
Whenever possible, we always play the cards as literally as we can and maybe that's just us but I would say a turn is a turn not a round.
In this instance I don't think it's a big deal which way you go so long as all players understand and agree (hopefully beforehand) then make a note in your
House Rules
book!
The problem I have with considering it 3 Rounds instead is in cases where you cast Temporal Warp, and during your first turn of the Spell get Toaded. If basing it on Rounds, the next 2 Turns you take wouldn't even count as being a Toad, which I feel is incorrect.
But like adjogi states, whatever everyone at the table agrees to should be how it's played. When I post in this forum, I tend to go by the letter of the rules, but individual groups can do whatever they feel is best for them.
