2nd Annual NamePros Rock Paper Scissors Championship

kruwreka · Feb 10, 2009

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

ahahhaha master plan successful! :yell:

My first round moves were: R R S P P R R R P P S. haha nice one S~, looks like we both planned same, it made me laugh for 5mins, gave you rep for this :yell:

Next one is galel! :yell:

:lol: Quality. I had a feeling it was going to be 1-0 to one of us. Pity it wasn't me!

See you in the final! Although I'm starting to get the impression I may not make it...

(And what's the betting Jerlene actually shows up for the match vs me and wins?)

Nah, there are still 7 more rounds to go and a lot can change since then

Jerlene probably won't show up, since she already has 2 no shows.

Looking forward to round 3, Galel has got no chance! :yell:

RJ · Mar 11, 2009

Sorry for not putting up a good fight that round. I checked my moves against lzy's and he would have won the round anyhow. But I'll be back and ready for a brawl in round 4!

That almost sounds dangerous. All those people in the stands
sitting on their paper seats waving scissors in the air. *Ow! My eye!*

bbrez1 · Mar 11, 2009

Indeed Phil, indeed :D

HastyHost-Andy, I suggest you just surrender that way you won't be humiliated :D , I'm on a winning streak and won't let anyone to win now, I'm on paper spree! _\|/_ :kickass:
