Also, Grapes says current rescuer, and when you come back from AtC, you are in a battle challenge, not a rescue attempt, so there is no rescuer.

The ruling actually is "After making a successful rescue attempt, a player may not initiate a rescue attempt until all other players have had an opportunity to make one.

It came about after 2010 Nationals when a type II combo created a situation where one player made 7 successive RAs. I believe the techincal rule is something along the lines of "You may not make a rescue attempt if you previously made a successful rescue attempt without your opponent having a turn." It's designed to prevent abusive combos and promote fellowship. I'm not sure where on the forums it is located.
