I won a rock, paper, sissors contest once in 3rd grade^^ All I got tho was a huge baf of popcorn.

... I kinda hate the name rock, paper, scissors. Here in Hawaii we call it Jan Ken Po http://www.jbrowse.com/text/janken.shtml

We found that the people who tried to have a strategy pretty much all lost to the people who ran things completely randomly.

Yeah, I think they occasionally make that a programming assignment here for the one course where you need to program some sort of AI (I know Chess is a popular choice, though my roommate had to program one for this game called Amazons). I don't think they allow you to use a random strategy, since in all computer competitions it's been shown to be the winning strategy. =\

This is crazy, I'm reading the "7" pages of adavanced rules of RPD.

Apprently, this is really big, maybe I should start practacing....Does this mean if I got real good at RPS, I could become rich?

I think I'm going to throw a cresendo for the win...

Well, there must some secret behind how he wins. It could be a good skill to solve disputes and have it your way.

I'm bored, let's play a little bit Rock, Paper, Scissors here. After all, this is a serious game.

Come on, try to beat me!

Honestly I never given much thought to Jan-Ken-Pon as I always believed it had more to do with luck than messing with your opponent's head. This link makes the strategy of the game look more like chess. I'm gonna try these two-level feints the next time I'm caught up in a Jan-Ken-Pon match.

How about a 15-way version of it?

Snake beats water?

Devil DOES beat human. But not dragon. This has some merit.

wow... so many lines.

Really thanks, but no thanks. I think I can live without ever playing a more complicated version of a stupid game.

That's an interesting version of the game. I find it a bit amusing how "sponge" beats "air."

Gumby

Mar 12, 2006 01:54 PM

lol gun beats tree, must be some gun...

Sponge OWNS. There's another version of it with even more moves, and sponge beats NUCLEAR EXPLOSION.

OH YEAH?!
STEAM SHOVEL!!! Nothing beats steam shovel.. It just can't be done.. that simple, case closed!

Now where MY 50,000 dollar reward for that?!

I figure they got that idea from the snake that swims through water. The name escapes me for the moment. But it makes sense.

I can't see myself using that version any time soon. Far too much thinking involved followed by looking at a chart for reference (when we figure out the guy was throwing tree and not rock.)

I'm a little more perplexed how sponge beats anything on its right side.
Sponge beats dragon? Must be those deep sea sponge.

I dunno about that one.....there's still the skill of cheating at it and not getting caught. I was damn good on that side of things lol.

As for organized waving of hands at each other, that's simply lol, but makes perfect sense with the way our society has been going. It was just the next evolutionary step I guess.

Wow, that guy must've been really lucky. I'm highly anticipating the national tournament in Vegas.

I saw some champion of this "sport" on a G4 show a year or so back.

Man, what a way for anyone to play without risking serious injury.

probably (if anything) Darts, that is unless some stupid ass gets in the way of the target mind you.

Anyway, what next? Foursquare? :tpg:

EDIT: Though actually, foursquare can be pretty fun.

Well, the picture Kairyu posted is "just" RPS15. In addition to this, there also exists RPS25.

Cockroach beats Alien, Dragon, Devil, Lightning and Nuke. :tpg:

Metal Sphere

Mar 16, 2006 07:12 AM

WTF... LOL at Nuke and Alien. Someone must've been pretty fucking bored to come up with that, even though some of the things on there are hilarious depending on what they beat.

Okay, how does Snake beat Monkey, but said Monkey beats Woman AND Man. At least Nuke beats them all, maintaining some semblance of balance in the universe.

Lollin' at "woman beating man." I suppose "man beats woman" isn't any better, though.

Summonmaster

Mar 16, 2006 11:58 PM

Okay I officially love that RPS25 picture! My guess is that whoever is first interested will pick "Nuke", being the coolest sounding and flashiest hand pose. So for easy wins, just pick sponge and soak up the nuke. Don't forget the squeezing motion!
