How dop you play Rocket Paper Scissors?

Question

...and if 4 people are playing...how does someone win?

Answer 1

I think you mean Rock, Paper, Scissors.

Basically, you say rock, paper, scissors, shoot--and once you say shoot, all hands become an item--in the shape of a rock, scissors, or a piece of paper.

You win like this:

If-

Paper: kill rock, weakened by scissors

Rock: kill scissors, weakened by paper

Scissors: kill paper, weakened by rock

So, say you are playing with a friend, and you pick paper, and your friend picks rock, you win--because paper covers rock.

Answer 2

With 4 people play two go at a time and the next in line takes on the champ of the previous game. To play put one hand palm up in front of you and make a ball with the other. slam your hand down two times and on the third you will choose your play. For scissors you hold two fingers out (like a peace sign) for rock you keep your hand in a ball, and for paper you lay your hand flat on your other hand. Rock beats scissor (because it crushes them, scissors beat paper (because it cuts them), and paper beats rock (because it covers it) Hint: Don't do it in a pattern because people will catch on!

Answer 3

Game play

  

Each of the three basic hand-signs ( from left to right: rock, paper and scissors ) beats one of the other two.

The players both count aloud to three, or speak the name of the game (e.g. "Rock! Paper! Scissors!" or "Ro! Cham! Beau!"), each time raising one hand in a fist and swinging it down on the count. On the third count (saying "scissors!" or "Beau!" ), the players change their hands into one of three gestures, which they then "throw" by extending it towards their opponent. A variation on this version (often played in the Northeastern United States involves a fourth count—"SHOOT"—before players throw their gesture.

Rock, represented by a clenched fist.

Paper, represented by an open hand.

Scissors, represented by the index and middle fingers extended.

The objective is to select a gesture which defeats that of the opponent. Gestures are resolved as follows:

Rock breaks or blunts scissors; rock wins.

Paper covers rock; paper wins.

Scissors cut paper; scissors wins.

If both players choose the same gesture, the game is tied and played again. The average number of plays required to decide a winner is 1.5 (see #Mathematics below).

In some variations of the game, the winner of each round "uses" the weapon on the opponent's weapon, to demonstrate that they have won.

RPS is frequently played in a "best two out of three" match, and tournament players often prepare sequences of three gestures ahead of time.[2][3]

Jason Simmons, a competitive RPS champion, claims that women tend to start with scissors,[4] while the World RPS Society states that males have a tendency to lead with rock. At World RPS tournaments, scissors is statistically the least common throw.[5]

During the 17th century, Japanese children played a street game where 2 teams would meet on opposite ends of a field and then send individual runners off towards each others "Camp". These runners would follow a prescribed course passing several landmarks such as a tree, a rock, a wagon rut or whatever was around; whenever/wherever the two runners would meet up, they would stop and "Challenge" each other to "Rock-Paper-Scissors" or as the Japanese say, "Jan Ken Pon" until one runner won. The two runners would quickly continue running, but with the losing runner racing back to his own "Camp" in disgrace. His only hope for redemption was to get back to his own Camp faster than the runner who beat him at RPS/JKP. If he could pass or "tag" his first landmark before the other team's runner does, then his team was allowed to send a fresh runner out towards their first landmark and intercept the other team's runner and "Challenge" them to RPS/JKP and possibly send that runner back along the route to his own camp. The first team to get all of their runners into the other's camp was declared the winner. This idea has recently been adapted into a board game called "Hand2Hand".

Terminology

The exact name of the game can vary, with the three components appearing in a different order, or with "stone" in place of "rock". Non-English-speakers often refer to the game by their words for "rock-paper-scissors" (though not necessarily in that order).
