1. Depends,

on the person you're playing. The odd folk tend to start with scissors, the normies are pretty split between rock and paper. Me? I strategerize.

5. If Only...

Late November 2000, Late night phone call transcript

AL: "George, this is Al. You know we have this election problem and I've got any offer to make. "
GW: "Sure Al, go for it"
AL: "Well George, you know that Rock Scissor Paper game you probably played with Jed"
GW: "Sure Al, I seem to have lost alot - I was big on the 'rock' strategery. Heh heh."
AL: "Well I'll make an offer right now - let's play one game over the phone and whoever wins takes the Presidency and the other concedes"
GW: "Sounds like it has its advantitudes, Al, let do"
AL: "Rock!"
GW: "Damn, OK Al, you win"

9. Play a "best out of 3"....

(This only works with someone you think is less smart than you)

Go:

Paper. Paper. Paper. etc. until you win.

Most people with low self-esteem (or even accurately low self-esteem) can't believe you have the cajones to keep doing paper. And they will switch to rock.

Now you know my secret.

I'll have to kill you all. :silly:

10. My two sons,

when they were quite young, perhaps 4 and 8, started doing Rock, Paper, Scissors, as a way of resolving any disputes they have. I never even suggested it, they just came up with it on their own.

I suspect a lot of problems could be solved by this game.

11. I agree!

Most "silly" disputes can be handle by RPS.
