Meditate Combo

Say I cast Meditate, and then cast Fork to copy it. Two Meditates resolve on the same turn, and I draw eight cards. Now the question is: Do I skip two turns or just one?

I'm thinking you skip two. The first Meditate resolves, and looks at the turn after this one. Then the second Meditate resolves, and since your "next" turn no longer exists, it looks at the turn after that. This is my reasoning right now.

But maybe both Meditates are both looking at the same next turn and are both telling you to skip that specific turn, and ignore anything afterward. I'm not sure.

Maybe this ruling will shed some light on your problem.

Oracle texts:

Fork
Instant
RR
Put a copy of target instant or sorcery spell onto the stack, except that it copies Fork's color and you may choose new targets for the copy.
Relevant rulings: You maintain full control over the copy of the spell regardless of who cast the original. (I think this means that the caster of the Fork spell is considered the caster of the Forked spell, i.e. "you" in the spell text).

Time Walk
Sorcery
1U
Take an extra turn after this one.
Relevant rulings: If multiple "extra turn" effects resolve in the same turn, take them in the reverse of the order that the effects resolved.





So, first player 1 casts Time Walk. Then player 2 responds with a Fork, and to make things easy let's say nothing else happens. Then player 2's Fork resolves, and finally player 1's Fork resolves. Since extra turns are taken in the reverse order, player 1 will get his extra turn first and then player 2 will get his.
