Rock, Paper, Scissors Tournament

Madtown · #1 12-14-2006, 07:11 PM

Time to throw us a rock, scissors, paper tournament.

Number of spots will be dependent on players that sign up (8, 16, 32, 64).

Sign-up deadline is tomorrow at noon.

Each match will be best of 3. Each turn will be handled individually (ie, you won't submit all three throws at once). If sign-ups are low and we only get enough for an 8-man tourney then I may expand this to best of 5.

Updates will occur as fast as people submit their throws. Anyone who fails to submit a throw within 12 hours of the last update for their particular match will have a throw automatically determined by rand().

There will be a consolation match between the two losers of the final four.

Throws may be submitted to me via AIM. If I don't have your AIM name (or you're not sure whether I do or not) please PM it to me after signing up. If you don't have AIM, you can submit throws via PM.

Sign-ups, gogogo.

I am definitely a RPS pro and will win this tournament hands down.
Metagame: I will throw the following set - Rock, Rock, Rock in all my matches.
Also known as the "Avalanche" among RPS pros.

Again, I'm a noob, but it seems like people who know what they are doing would be able to exploit this?
