ROCK ⛰️
PAPER 📝
SCISSORS✂️
The Basics:
Rock beats Scissors
Scissors beats Paper
Paper beats Rock
The Rules: (All games must follow the same format to ensure fair play)
The countdown rhythm of “rock, paper, scissors, shoot” must be used for every game.
All players must start with one hand flat with the palm facing up and the signaling hand must strike the flat hand rhythmically to the countdown before signaling on “shoot”.
The signaling hand must be in the shape of a fist.
If players choose the same signal, the game is tied and will be replayed. This will not count against the 2/3 or 3/5 game count for each round.
If a player signals before “shoot” or after a significant delay, the game will be voided and replayed. Again, this will not count against the 2/3 or 3/5 game count for each round.
If a player’s signal is not obviously a “Rock”, “Paper”, or “Scissors” the game will be voided and replayed. This will not count against the 2/3 or 3/5 game count for each round.
The referee for each round will have full discretion over what is an acceptable signal.
