Player A controls Will Kenrith and has made two emblems* with it.
He counters a spell with Pact of Negation. The emblems create two copies of the Pact of Negation.
He has only the means of paying for one during his next upkeep. Does he lose to the 2nd and 3rd pact, or can he make the copies counter one another?

* I'm sorry - not sure how to put an image of the emblem here.

He can make all the copies target the same spell. One of the copies will resolve first, countering the spell and creating the lose the game trigger. Then the other copy will fail to resolve because its only target is no longer on the stack, having been countered by the first copy. Then the original Pact will also fail to resolve for the same reason, so in the end you will only have to pay once.

Please don't use Rulings for dunking on your friends when a ruling goes against them. Locked since answered correctly.
