{Gravecrawler}s ability allows it to be cast from the GY. Can i use that ability anytime or is it sorcery speed?
It is at Sorcery speed, because it doesn't say "... from your graveyard at any time" I think would be the evidential logic.
It's sorcery speed because you're casting the card itself, not using a mana ability like, say, {manor skeleton}.

Er, or whichever skeleton lets you put it on the battlefield for 1B from the GY and it comes in tapped.

That one would be instant speed, since it's an ability and not casting.
Same goes for flashback. If you flash back an instant, it can be done at anytime you could play an instant, flashback a sorcery, and it can only be done when you can cast a sorcery.
Ok if 2 abilities of a creature activated the active player what order they go on the stack right?

You mean triggered? You can only activate one at a time.
I'm too lazy, so I'll just paste the CR section:
603.3b If multiple abilities have triggered since the last time a player received priority, each player, in APNAP order, puts triggered abilities he or she controls on the stack in any order he or she chooses. (See rule 101.4.) Then the game once again checks for and resolves state-based actions until none are performed, then abilities that triggered during this process go on the stack. This process repeats until no new state-based actions are performed and no abilities trigger. Then the appropriate player gets priority.
Yea triggered. Ok scene 1: i have a fresh {Lumberknot} and 5 other creatures on my BF my oppenent doesnt have anything. I (with my infini mana cause im amazing) play {Damnation} and respond the said damnation by {Undying Evil} onto my Treefolk. It resolves giving it Undying and all my creatures are dead. Now 2 abilities triggered: Lumberknots standard triggered ability (+1 when a creature dies, im also asumming even though it died with the others as well that it still goes off 'cause i have to sit through the ability resolving on Duels 2012 even though hes in my GY.) and undying. Now if im right i can stack the undying ontop of its regular triggered so it comes back with a +1 for Undying +5 +1/+1 though its ability.......correct?
Wow! What an excellent question! Here's what happens: all creatures die at the same time, but all creatures still "see each other die. Weird I know. So, you are right that all those triggers will be put on the stack in the order you choose. But here's the thing, it doesn't matter.
If the {Lumberknot}'s ability resolves first, it will already be in the gy and won't get any counters. Then undying will bring it back with one +1/+1 counter.
If you resolve undying first, the tree will be brought back from the gy with a +1/+1 counter, but whenever a permanent changes zones, the game sees it as a different object. So those five +1/+1 triggers will lose track of the {Lumberknot} and do nothing.
Damn..i was gonna do something with {Lumberknot} + {Mikeaus, the Unhallowed} + {Damnation}...
