I have verified, and there is no need for use more than one single gamevar |

You can use a single quote for both placeholders. Also, you can use a single quote to display many different texts at the same time, since using qsprintf in a quote doesn't alter the text displayed by a [[gametext]] command used before with that quote. | You can use a single quote for both placeholders.

qsprintf <destination quote> <source quote> <parameter 1> [parameter 2] [parameter 3] ... [parameter 32]
Copies the text of <source quote> to <destination quote>, replacing in order each instance of %d (%ld works too) with a gamevar passed in its parameter position, and each instance of %s with a quote in its parameter position.
You can use a single quote for both placeholders. Also, you can use a single quote to display many different texts at the same time, since using qsprintf in a quote doesn't alter the text displayed by a gametext command used before with that quote.
