The NamePros Rock Paper Scissors Championship - First prize: NP$1250

Quick link:
-------> Groups, schedule and rules. <-------


Welcome to the first ever NamePros Rock Paper Scissors Championship!

It's one of the most popular games of the world: Rock Paper Scissors. The rules are pretty simple. You choose one of the three weapons and hope that it beats the weapon of your opponent. Rock smashes scissors. Scissors cut paper. Paper covers rock.

A match in this tournament will consist of 11 rounds of throwing. The person who wins more rounds, wins the match. If there's a draw in a knock-out match, the match will be decided via sudden death (next winning round wins the match). The players have to sent me their moves via PM till the respective deadline.

The structure of the tournament will be probably like the World Cup finals with a group stage and a knock-out stage, but depends on the number of participants. If there are less than 8 participants, it'll be a round-robin-tournament. The structure will be posted after the end of registration. There'll be presumably 2 matches a week.

If you want to participate, post something like "count me in" in this thread, so I know how many people want to join the tournament. The registration will be open till Friday, March 28, 6PM EST. Registration has been closed

You don't have to pm me your moves yet, as there is no schedule yet, but it's possible. The first deadline will be announced after the registration has closed.

The winner of this tournament will be crowned NamePros Rock Paper Scissors Champion and will be awarded also the mind-blowing, overwhelming prize of NP$50.... NP$500... NP$750... NP$1000 ... NP$1250! (omg!) (thanks to the kind generosity of Etab, Trips No Limit, vatsan and Irieman). The winner will get also a trophy icon for his profile! (Thanks to -RJ-)

If there are any questions: ask

:lol:

Count me in -- and consider the prize $500 NP instead of $50 NP.

 

[loser]

nah, NP$500 is too much... the players should play for the love of the game, and not for going pro (unless of course you want to sponsor the additional NP$450 :p )

(unless of course you want to sponsor the additional NP$450 :p )

That was the idea.

 

[loser]

thanks... if there are no more registrations, you'd have some pretty good chances to retain the money... maybe you should close the thread? ^^

If there are any questions: ask

Just one, maybe silly: how will this be played? I presume not in forum posts?

 

[loser]

The players have to sent me their moves via PM till the respective deadline.

It's of course not via forum post. That would be far too easy

It's of course not via forum post. That would be far too easy

That's what I thought. Care to explain how it will be played?

 

[loser]

Everytime you have a match, you send me a PM with at least 11 moves (some more, if its a knock-out match). This PM could look like this:

Rock, Rock, Rock, Rock, Rock, Rock, Rock, Rock, Rock, Rock, Rock.

Or like this:
S, P, R, S, P, R, S, P, R, S, P.

After the deadline I'll make a report like this:

Player A  vs  Player B
  Rock    >   Scissors    1:0
  Rock    <    Paper      1:1
  Rock    =     Rock      1:1
  Rock    >   Scissors    2:1
  Rock    <    Paper      2:2
  Rock    =     Rock      2:2
  Rock    >   Scissors    3:2
  Rock    <    Paper      3:3
  Rock    =     Rock      3:3
  Rock    >   Scissors    4:3
  Rock    <    Paper      4:4

  
Final score: 4:4

After that, you could analyze your next opponent, maybe find some patterns, and send me your new moves for the next deadline (if you weren't eliminated yet).

Hope thats helps you. If not, ask again
