i get confused by multilayer copy effects. If a player has a {cryptoplasm} in play that is currently a copy of a {courser of kruphix} and then they play an {evil twin} targeting the cryptoplasm/courser, what does the evil twin enter as?  Is it a copy of a cryptoplasm or a courser with the text of the cryptoplasm?

From the card ruling:

22-9-2011   If the chosen creature is copying something else (for example, if the chosen creature is another Evil Twin), then your Evil Twin enters the battlefield as whatever the chosen creature copied.

So it's a courser with all added benefits of twin and crypto.

Edit: and there's this one:
1-6-2011   If another creature becomes a copy of Cryptoplasm, it will become a copy of whatever Cryptoplasm is currently copying (if anything), plus it will have Cryptoplasm's triggered ability.
