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.
