2nd Annual NamePros Rock Paper Scissors Championship

[kruwreka]

Hello there fine folks

With the dog days of winter upon us, I feel it would be a great time to bring back the the NamePros Rock Paper Scissors Championship.

Last year, after a false start to the tournament, we had a great turn out and an excellent competition ensued to bring us the first ever NamePros RPS champion Trips No Limit/Phil.



The rules will remain the same:

Each contestant will PM me 15 moves (rock, paper or scissors) for each match.

11 of those moves will be used in the game to determine a winner. The additional 4 moves will be used for sudden death overtime in case of a tie after the initial 11 moves are played out.

Depending on the turnout, we will follow with the same general format. A round robin tourney, best of three playoffs and best of five championship game.

The deadlines are going to be fixed this time around to Monday and Thursday
10pm PST.
---------------------------------


The deadline to register for the game will be Monday, February 23rd at 10pm PST. The first match will occur on Monday, March 2nd. I will post the groups and match schedules somewhere in between.

I will be contacting the original participants in the next day or two via PM to see if they want to return and of course will be accepting new players to the competition.

If you are interested to join and play, please leave a comment in this thread.



On a serious note: This tournament last a while. It took almost two months to finish the first one once it got going. Part of the excellent experience we had last year was, that with the exception of one person who quit after losing the 1st match, all the other players remained and competed hard all the way, even if they didn't have a shot to advance into the playoff, and stuck around to cheer on the those who did.

Please be sure that you can commit to the tournament so that we can have another great competition.


Thank you and good luck

And there you have it folks. Some of the players at the top are starting to get some separation.

Can you reel them back in? Can you derail their championship aspirations? Can you make my hair turn gray trying to figure out who beat whom when I'm figuring out the standings tie-breakers?

You have two more rounds to try

Deadline for round eight is Thursday March 26rd @10pm PDT

Ouch. What's funny is original plans was this but inverted- open with S and a line of Rs, which would have won.
Qualification still mathematically possible, but very, very unlikely now

 

[kruwreka]

Actually you would have lost that way too. If you had opened with the reverse, your S would have beaten Andy's first P. After that only Andy's S were beatable and there are only two of those for a total of 3 points.

Andy has four additional P's which would have beaten your R's for a total of 4 points

...and oh my sweet god does the above paragraph just sound so filthy

 

[Coopey]

Oh yeah! Ha.
