If there are two different ordeals on the same creature, when it hits three counters do they both trigger at the same time?
Yes. You may choose which to resolve first by putting it on the stack after the other one. Last in is first out rule for the stack. Basically all that means is you have to pick your order before your opponent decides to respond or not and then you may resolve them only in that order chosen.
Common play, resolve {odeal of nylea} first before {ordeal of thassa} to increase your chance of drawing non land cards. This is done by putting thassa on the stack before nylea.
Thanks, that's what I thought. Saw this in a tourney last night and they wanted them to trigger them one at a time on different rounds. Wanted to make sure I was right.
Can I get some clarification? My creature has 1 1/1 counter on it and two ordeals, A and B. I attack and put the ordeal triggers on the stack ordeal B then ordeal A. Ordeal A resolves, giving my creature 2 1/1 counters, but not enough to sac the ordeal. Then ordeal B resolves giving my creature 3 1/1 counters and triggering the ordeal sac. In the end I have a creature with 3 1/1 counters enchanted with ordeal A attacking my opponent.
Is this how it plays out or am I missing some rule?

Looks like you got it!
After the the first trigger resolves, its "counter check" is done. It won't check again until you attack again.
