"The key to my win was maintaining a clear mind before each throw, and judging each opponent individually," said Mr. Lovering, 2002 International World Rock Paper Scissors Champion...
Who woulda thunk?

I've never known how this game works. What's the deal? Scissors cut paper, rock dulls scissors, whatever... What does this mean? How do you win?

Rock Paper Scissors Well, it's not a fair competition. This guy probably trained in the Canadian Military where these are issued weapons.

Most people start with a stone or scissors. Of the two, stone is more likely, so I always begin with paper. I figure scissor is better for the second play because my opponent will react to my stone with the opposite (paper)on the second play. I can usualy win two out of three this way.
It takes a great deal of training and helps to have majored in pinball at a Big Ten university, as I did.

I haven't played since I was about ten years old. Scissors cuts paper, paper covers rock, rock breaks scissors.

Rock, paper, scissors. The guy probably got all three of these weapons of mass destruction at a gunshow. Paging Josh Sugarman, Tom Diaz...

How do you win?At its highest level, this is a test of the contestants' aptitude at game theory, a respected mathematical exercise.

At its highest level, this is a test of the contestants' aptitude at game theory At the lowest...it's a contestant's obvious refusal to pass a job interview...past the first level...the application.

This game should be played with the real objects. I would stand about ten feet from my opponent, and always play the rock.
