Staredit Network -> Miscellaneous -> Paper doesn't beat rock!
Report, edit, etc...Posted by Diggidoyo on 2005-12-02 at 01:09:16
I understand that Scissors can beat Paper, and I get how Rock can beat Scissors, but there's no farking way Paper can beat Rock. Paper is supposed to magically wrap around Rock leaving it immobile? Why the hell can't paper do this to scissors? Screw scissors,why can't paper do this to people? Why aren't sheets of college ruled notebook paper constantly suffocating students as they attempt to take notes in class?I'll tell you why, because paper can't beat anybody, a rock would tear that shiz up in 2 seconds. When I play rock/ paper/ scissors I always choose rock.Then when somebody claims to have beaten me with their paper I can punch them in the face with my already clenched fist and say, oh shiz, I'm sorry I thought paper would protect you, meanie

ADDITION:
lol... the censor said meanie.... lmao

[center]This is LD... How?
It's a game, it doesn't have to make sense. Right, Osmotiar?
If paper didn't beat rock, the game would be flawed.
Try bear, hunter, ninja.

Ninja would own them all...Stealth kill > all. The bear is screwed since the lack of intelligence.

I guess there are national RPS (rock paper scissors) championships.

Check out this website: http://www.worldrps.com/

It seems pretty legit to me but just the idea of RPS champs sounds silly. It also goes into "advanced techniques" for the elite RPS'ers.

My teacher's son was in the Norwegian national cup or something in this game happy.gif

Anyway, I don't think the scissor could magically cut up the paper either. Rock ftw smile.gif

well its clear to me that the paper ALWAYS beats the rock. the paper wraps around the rock thus strangling and suffercating the rock to death. paper should also win scissors... i mean come on! scissors should beat rock also metal>earth. yeah... paper is the best

Did you even read my post? No way paper can do anything against rock...

When a High school football game starts, do the players run through a big piece of rock with their name on it? NO

Do they run through a pile of scissors with their name on it? NOOO

What do they run through??? PAPER!!! THEY TEAR THAT SHIZ UPP!!

Paper needs to beat rock or else the game won't work. YOu can make it Rock, Hammer, Scissors, but then how can scissors cut a hammer?!? It is a game so just play it the way it is.

Nope. I think the game needs to be redone. I was reading the far side gallery, and back in the cavemen days they played it like this:

"Rock, Rock, Rock! Damn... Tied again..."

What if it's paper made out of METAL!

How about Toilet, Poop, and Human?

Toilet>Poop
Poop>Human
Human>Toilet

You know that human would win since that we are the top of the food chain... we will nuke the other stuff... showoff.gif

*to the thread maker* stupid.gif

Seriously, it's a made-up game. Games don't always have to be realistic (ie: Super Mario).

You poor man, how many times have you had to do that today?




Just call it by a different name if you want to break the rules, like Hand of Gawd - Scissors - Paper.

Better yet, try metaphoric rock-paper-scissors. You can play anything and who ever has the best argument for why one should win wins the round.

Lol, I actually sort of agree that the game should be redone, but it's not going to be, too set in, just accept it and move on.

It should be Fenix zealot, raynor marine, artanis scout. zealot beats marine, marine beats scout, and scout obviously beats zealot.

No. It should be
Torrasque Ultralisk
Artanis Scout
The hero goliath guy.

Much more balanced. Torrasque owns hero goliath.
Hero goliath owns scout.
Scout own ultralisk. Better balanced.

ACtually, it's a game invented by the anvient japanese. The same ancient japanese that invented Kung-Fu, Karate, Gojuru and all that.

If you read the RPS website, there's a whole book of rules on how the game is supposed to be played. Stuff like at the final throw the forearm must be extended at a 90 degree angle to the body, etc.

Then it goes on to say for the scissors the index finger should be pointed upwards and middle finger downwards at a 30-40 degree angle thus mimicking a pair of scissors. And for paper the palm should be flat horizontal to the ground. A vertical palm like a handshake is considered "extremely bad form".

There are certain patterns that people use, so you can take advantage of it when it's a large number of rounds.
