Every time Rock Paper Scissors comes up, I like to point out the superiority of Odds and Evens for resolving disputes.
Rules:
One player picks Odds, the other player picks Evens.
Someone says, "Odds, Evens, says, SHOOT", and both players put out either one finger or two fingers.
Count the fingers. If it's odd, Odds wins. If it's even, Evens wins.
Exactly 50% chance, no ties. RPS has always been obsolete.
Isn't RPS "meant" to be a game rather than a way to decide randomly between two options? There's an element of skill involved since you can attempt to avoid playing patterns and identify patterns in your opponent's play in repeated rounds
Is better unbalanced RPS. Play for 5 points, a win with Rocks counts as 2 points.
