About Rock Paper Scissors
Rock-paper-scissors, a classic two-person hand game, is used as a selection method similar to tossing a coin or drawing straws. However, unlike tossing a coin, Rock-paper-scissors can be played with skill, by a player who recognizes his opponent's tendencies.
Rock Paper Scissors History
The game of rock-paper-scissors originated in Japan in the late 19th century and was popularized throughout the world in the 20th century. The game was first known as Jan-ken-pon in Japanese. "Ken" in Japanese is fist. Currently the game is played by school children worldwide, and there are many cultural variations of the game. According to The Guinness Book of World Records, on April 3, 2009, Colonel By Secondary School in Ottawa, Canada, held the largest recorded rock-paper-scissors tournament, with approximately 1150 participants.
Rock Paper Scissors Tips
Pay attention to your opponent's tendencies. Over many games players can recognize their opponent's strategy. Players use psych-outs, shouting, and trick gestures to confuse opponents.
According to Jason Simmons, a competitive rock-paper-scissors champion, women tend to start with scissors. The World Rock-Paper-Scissors Society claims that males tend to lead with rock.
At the World Rock-Paper-Scissors tournaments, scissors is statistically the least common throw.
