Role PM. Only Peccavi and I are employing non-psionic abilities.

Ed: If Constrict were used on a person A who was also being obstructed by person b, who would get Constricted?
Also, does Reversal count as a negative effect that is blocked by the Obstructed person?

With multiple busdrivers, you'd establish a chain. Person A would take the damage meant for the person they'd been forced to Obstruct, but that damage would then be passed along to Person B. So for the purposes of effects, Person A is still Constricted (and i.e., the effect would fail if they were nullified), but for the purposes of damage Person B would still end up taking one for the team.
And Reversal counts as hostile for the purposes of Obstruct/Constrict.

Can we get a clarification on if we can choose our Last Gasp damage, regardless of psionic ability?

Last Gasp is still treated as a group power, and so the player that triggers it doesn't have to be Specialist to use Assassinate or Psychic to use Mindblast. Either can be used regardless of sub-faction.

Ed, if ringo is forced to obstruct for alegis, and alegis is forced to obstruct for ringo, and someone does damage to either of them, what happens?

In such an instance, I'd declare it a "regular" busdriver, with the two of them switching damages and (hostile) effects.
Alternate answer: an angel gets its wings.

Ed, is Healing simultaneous with Damage?
So, if I have 100 life, get hit for 100 damage and healed for 50 on the same night, would I live with 50 life or would I die?

Also, I'm not sure if this has been asked yet, but can you use powers/attack yourself?

The Heal power is simultaneous with Damage, so in the given example yes you would survive. The Aid power is not, however, and would result in a death in that instance.
You may attempt to use attacks/damaging abilities on allies, but not yourself.

So could I use reversal on myself?

Yes.
