View Full Version : Rock Paper Scissors Season 4 - Game Underway!

Hello and welcome to the fourth iteration of ROCK-PAPER-SCISSORS. The first three games were bought to the playground by Zar Peter, and I have permission to continue the series in his stead.

The game is based around this snazzy little table:


http://i150.photobucket.com/albums/s113/ZarPeter/Rock_Paper_Scissors.jpg


Basic rules:
Each round you will be pitted against another player in a four action game of the expanded rock-paper-scissors game pictured above. You PM me with your four choices, and your opponent will do the same. As narrator, I will work out the results and determine the victor.

Each round will last 48 hours. You can PM me actions rounds in advance if you want, so that you don’t miss anything. Otherwise, you will automatically lose the missed round 4-0, and any bets placed on you will be cancelled.

If you win a game you score three points, one point for a draw, and nothing for a loss. Everyone will play each other once, a league table will be kept, and at the end there will obviously be a winner! There may also be a trophy too, but don’t hold your breath.:smallamused:

Betting:
Yes, I mentioned betting earlier, I guess it’s about time I explained it. Each player (and any lurkers not actively participating but wanting to bet) have 10gp to spend each round by betting on the outcomes of matches. Gp cannot be saved, so use the full 10 each round or the rest will be wasted.

Players can bet on the following things, with the gp reward for a successful bet shown:

Bet on a player to win – 2:1
Bet on a match to end in a draw – 3:1
Bet on a player to win by a specific scoreline – 5:1

Accumulator - Make two or more bets as an accumulator to multiply your winnings, but every bet needs to succeed else you lose out.

Don't hesitate to PM me if you have questions about the rules!

Hurray for players! I've capped the maximum player number at 20, as any more than that makes the game overlong. The first round will start on Tuesday 11th at the latest, or earlier if we get 15ish players before then.

I'd kind of like to get well into this by the time ACV starts. :smallsmile:

Okay folks, sign-ups are now closed. We've got a ten match league, which is quite neat in a way. Give me this morning to put the table together and the first Round matches and we'll get started shortly.

EDIT - Just noticed we have 11 players - that won't do! As such the game will be eleven rounds long, with one player each round taking on 'The random dice 'o' chance.

Okay then, Round 1 is go! Get your four actions into me by PM, and make your bets in thread!

Round 1 will end in 48 hours time.

I'm still missing three sets of actions, so I'm extending the round for approximately 6 hours.

This is only time I'll be doing this, as some folks may not know the game is underway.

Fleeing Coward
2014-02-13, 06:14 AM
With multibets, if one part of the bet is voided(due to players not submitting actions), would the bet just be based on the odds/results of the parts that ain't voided or would the whole bet be voided?

If the whole bet is going to be voided in cases like that, I'll go with the slightly less crazy bets of 5 Gold each on DD winning 4-0 and Mordokai/Nonayer drawing instead :smalltongue:

In the event of one bet in a two bet accumulator being cancelled, the remaining bet will stand as a normal bet. If a bet is cancelled within a three or more bet accumulator, the accumulator will continue, with that single bet taken out.

Round 1 Results

Bladescape vs Dicey McRandomton

Bladescape's alien fell into Dicey's Tree, then saw his Nuke out-evilled by a Devil. However, Dicey's second Devil can't figure out Bladescape's Bowl, and his Air is completely useless against the final Wolf. Bladescape manages to pull an opening draw from the jaws of defeat.

Alien loses to Tree
Nuke loses to Devil
Bowl beats Devil
Wolf beats Air
2-2

Cuthalion vs Zjoot

Zjoot had his Paper, Scissor, Rock and Cockroach lined up to go old school on Cuthalion, but his opponent didn't turn up!

_loses to Paper
_loses to Scissors
_loses to Rock
_loses to Cockroach
0-4

Dallas-Dakota vs Zar Peter

Zar Peter unsurprisingly starts well, using a Rock to pound out DD's Fire, and Scissors to bisect his opponents Axe. After all, he is the traditrional host of the tournament. DD isn't beaten however, downing Zar's Woman with more Fire, and using a back-up Axe to chop down Petey's Tree. Another draw!

Fire loses to Rock
Axe losses to Scissors
Fire beats Woman
Axe beats Tree
2-2

Fleeing Coward vs Tylorious

FC is popular with the ladies, and decides to show off to Tylorious by bringing no less than four Women to his opening match. Tylorious decides to give it a miss, giving FC the whitewash.

Woman beats _
Woman beats _
Woman beats _
Woman beats _
4-0

Haruki-kun vs Tom the Mime

Tom's Water hoses down Haruki's Dragon, but the angels Wolf then breathes in the Air. Tom's own Wolf dodges the Lightning, but Haruki's Man bests the Moon to grind out yet another draw.

Dragon loses to Water
Wolf beats Air
Lightning loses to Wolf
Man beats Moon
2-2

Mordokai vs Nonayer

Will the elf be punted by the self proclaimed arrogant bastard? Mordy starts like a freight train, his Wolf swallowing a Nuke, Dynamite exploding Rock, and Monkey eating Nonayer's Cockroach. The arrogant one pulls one back at the end, his Moon finding no Water to be seen, but it's not enough to stop Mordy pulling out the win.

Wolf beats Nuke
Dynamite beats Rock
Monkey beats Cockroach
Water loses to Moon
3-1

Round 2 Results

Tom the Mime vs Zar Peter

Zar's Rock and Water help to stave off the worst effects of Tom's consistent Sunny attack. The Gnome Astronomer does lose both his pairs of scissors though, making this game another draw.

Sun loses to Rock
Sun beats Scissors
Sun beats Scissors
Sun loses to Water
2-2

Zjoot vs Bladescape

Zjoot's Dragon fries Bladescape's first Snake to a crisp, but Blade's Woman and second Snake get biblical, besting the Bowl and Sponge respectively. Zjoot's Sun gives Bladescape's second Woman sunburn, and earns him a draw.

Dragon beats Snake
Bowl loses to Woman
Sponge loses to Snake
Sun beats Woman
2-2

Cuthalion vs Dallas-Dakota

Both players start off by pressing the big red button, setting off Nukes that collide in the sky in a mushroom cloud of radiation and fallout. DD's Cockroach crawls out of the rubble unscathed, breathing in Cuthalion's poisoned Air. DD's Paper then loses against ancestor Tree, but for the second time this round a final Sun burns Woman to give DD the win.

Nuke ties Nuke
Air loses to Cockroach
Tree beats Paper
Woman loses to Sun
1-2

Fleeing Coward vs Haruki-kun

Fc has clearly been to watch The Wolf of Wall Street. His four Wolves launch a hostile takeover, consuming Haruki's Dynamite, Alien and Moon. In the end only his Tree is left standing.

Wolf beats Dynamite
Wolf beats Alien
Wolf loses to Tree
Wolf beats Moon
3-1

Mordokai vs Dicey McRandomton

Dicey's opening Wolf eats Devils for breakfast, but Mordy's Woman tempts the Man and his Gun takes out the Tree. However, Mordy finds out that you can't trap Air in a Bowl, and has to concede to a draw.

Devil loses to Wolf
Woman beats Man
Gun beats Tree
Bowl loses to Air
2-2

Nonayer vs Tylorious

The big question in our final match is whether Tylorious will turn up. Nonayer bring his Alien, Gun, Woman and Fire just in case, but it turns out they're not needed as his opponent goes AWOL.

Alien beats _
Gun beats _
Woman beats _
Fire beats _
4-0

Betting

A lot of successful bets today, with Nonayer and Zar Peter scoring 6 glass pirates, Zjoot getting 12 green pockets, and Bladescape and Dallas finding 14 glittery puppets.

Disc Lorde comes in with several smart bets to earn 18 grounded pilots, but it's Fleeing Coward who wins big by betting on himself to the tune of 35 gaming planktons!

Round 3 Results

Bladescape vs Cuthalion

Bladescape gets infested with Cockroaches, whilst Cuthalion points a gun at him. Blade flees without reply, leaving Cuthalion to pick up the whitewash.

_ loses to Cockroach
_ loses to Cockroach
_ loses to Cockroach

0-4

Dallas-Dakota vs Dicey McRandomton

Dallas brings a quartet of Cockroaches of his own to his battle with Dicey, who brings just a single Cockroach of his own. Dallas' roaches best Dicey's Devil and Lightning, with only Fire keeping a single beastie at bay. The win goes to Dallas.

Cockroach beats Devil
Cockroach ties Cockroach
Cockroach beats Lightning
Cockroach loses to Fire
2-1

Fleeing Coward vs Zjoot

Allen's Axe Emporium has a sale on, which Zjoot is only to happy to take advantage of. He chops down FC's Snake, Tree and Woman, leaving only his opening Devil standing. A comfortable win for Zjoot, and great marketing for Allen's Axes.

Devil beats Axe
Snake loses to Axe
Tree loses to Axe
Woman loses to Axe
1-3

Mordokai vs Haruki-kun

Haruki's patience is wearing thin after a poor start, and he decided to pack the big guns in his battle against Mordokai. His hail of Guns and Nukes are too much for Mordy's Snake, Axe and Tree, with only his Devil being able to survive the onslaught. A first win for the angel!

Snake loses to Gun
Axe loses to Nuke
Tree loses to Gun
Devil beats Nuke
1-3

Nonayer vs Tom the Mime

There's a storm brewing in Tom the Mimes manor, with a slight chance of drizzle. Tom's Lightning smashes Nonayer's Rock, but his next two strikes are helpless against conducting Water and the far-off Moon. However, Tom's drizzle saves the day for him, as his Water washes out Nonayer's Alien and gets him a third draw on the spin.

Rock loses to Lightning
Water beats Lightning
Moon beats Lightning
Alien loses to Water
2-2

Zar Peter vs Disc Lorde

Disc Lorde has a lot of catching up to do, so he decides to bring plenty of explosives to his first battle. He starts well blowing up Zar Peter's Tree and Man with Dynamite, but his attack fizzles out, as Zar uses Air and Sponge to snuff out the threat. Another draw for Zar Peter, whilst Disc Lorde earns a point in his opening appearance.

Tree loses to Dynamite
Man loses to Dynamite
Air beats Dynamite
Sponge beats Dynamite
2-2

Betting

After a busy day yesterday, the punters are surprised by a lot of today's results, with few bets being successful.

Zar Peter and Nonayer each win 8 grizzly catamounts, but Cuthalion is the big winner, earning 20 grey cloaks for his belief in the power of Zjoot.

Round 4 Results

Bladescape vs Mordokai

Bladescape starts out well, his Nuke trumping Mordy's Fire. Mordy comes back strong though, with his Sun, Gun and Dynamite taking out the Cockroach, Man and Woman respectively. Another good win for Mordy.

Nuke beats Fire
Cockroach loses to Sun
Man loses to Gun
Woman loses to Dynamite
1-3

Dallas-Dakota vs Nonayer

Allen's Axe Emporium must be doing a roaring trade, as both Dallas and Nonayer chop each other to a standstill with their opening play. However, it's Dallas who recovers first, his Gun shooting Scissors, Alien mastering Fire, and Wolf dodging Dynamite to take a very impressive win.

Axe ties Axe
Gun beats Scissors
Alien beats Fire
Wolf beats Dynamite
3-0

Fleeing Coward vs Tom the Mime

Coward needs to bounce back after his first loss of the contest, and starts well by out-evilling Tom's Gun with his opening Devil. However, that's the only success he gets, as Tom's Dragon, Gun and Fire beat his Snake, Tree and Woman to score a first win for the Mime!

Devil beats Gun
Snake loses to Dragon
Tree loses to Gun
Woman loses to Fire
1-3

Cuthalion vs Disc Lorde

Disc Lorde wants to get a win here to kickstart his late entry into the game, but Cuthalion opens well, his Fire besting the Moon. Disc Lorde fights back well, with a double Sun victory over Paper and Fire, but a Paper Moon finale means he has to settle for another draw.

Fire beatsMoon
Paper loses to Sun
Fire loses to Sun
Paper beats Moon
2-2

Tylorious vs Zjoot

Tylorious faces a difficult first battle against the current standings leader, and when Zjoot's Water conducts his opening Lightning, things look grim. However, he fights back well, trading wins of Bowl and Man with the loss of his Axe to secure a draw.

Lightning loses to Water
Bowl beats Fire
Axe loses to Rock
Man beats Air
2-2

Zar Peter vs Haruki-kun

With Tom's win, Zar Peter is the only player with a 100% draw record to protect, against an angel full of confidence after a first win last round. Zar picks aggressive plays, and Haruki a good elemental defence, meaning they trade win for win and end up with yet another draw. When is the gnome astronomer going to win and earn Mordy some money?

Nuke loses to Water
Lightning beats Fire
Lightning loses toAir
Dragon beats Rock
2-2

Betting

Back to the big wins today, except for Mordy of course! Many people going with a Tom the Mine win and a Zar Peter draw means plenty of pay outs.

Tylorious and Zar Peter each won 10 glitzy paperclips, Dallas earned 14 guacamole plates, and Tome the Mime got 15 grand pianos.

But there were three huge wins today:
Nonayer - 25 grungy palaeontologists
Haruki-kun - 26 grouchy pizzas
Disc Lorde - 30 grimy pores!

Round 5 Results

A number of firsts this round...

Bladescape vs Tom the Mime

Bladescape pushes the big red button, and sends a fusillade of Nukes at Tom the Mime. Turning into Tome the Mime, Blades opponent buries his attack under a stack of political Papers, leading to our first genuine whitewash of the game.

Nuke loses to Paper
Nuke loses to Paper
Nuke loses to Paper
Nuke loses to Paper
0-4

Cuthalion vs Haruki-kun

Cuthalion's first snake is smashed under Haruki's Rock, but his follow up serpent eats the angels Turf War Papers. It gets no better for Haruki, as Lightning melts his Scissors and the Devil inspires his Nuke to give Cuthalion the win.

Snake loses to Rock
Snake beats Paper
Lightning beats Scissors
Devil beats Nuke
3-1

Dallas-Dakota vs Mordokai

The cookiemonster is in good form and full of confidence going into this round, but he faces a tricksy opponent in Mordy. DD starts well, his Lightning scaring off Mordy's Snake, but he then loses his Devil to a fog of poisonous Air. It's level after two, but DD accelerates away, with Axe and Rock besting Paper and Sponge to cement his place at the top of the standings.

Lightning beats Snake
Devil loses to Air
Axe beats Paper
Rock beats Sponge
3-1

Tylorious vs Fleeing Coward

Fleeing Coward is wheeling after two defeats on the spin, and things get no better for him as his Devil is buried under Tylorious' Paper mountain. His Snake fairs better, nesting in the opposing Tree, but Tylorious' Scissors and Rock best FC's Tree and Woman to condemn him to another loss, and scores a first win for our woodland ranger.

Paper beatsdevil
Tree loses to Snake
Scissors beats Tree
rock beats Woman
3-1

Nonayer vs Zar Peter

It says something for Nonayer's chances that he bets against himself in this match. Yet, his lack of confidence may be misplaced as Zar Peter has yet to take a win so far. The first two plays are traded, as Zar's Monkey butler spills Nonayer's Water everywhere, and a Cockroach stubbornly refuses to die to Peter's Nuke. Zar Peter then Dynamites the opposing Tree - if he wins the final play he'll finally get a win and earn Mordy some money! The crowd awaits with baited breath, and Nonayer launches his own Nuke. Zar smiles and soaks the blast with his Sponge and takes the tie 3-1.

Water loses to Monkey
Cockroach beats Nuke
Tree loses to Dynamite
Nuke loses to Sponge
1-3

Zjoot vs Disc Lorde

With DD winning, Zjoot needs a win of his own to stay on the cookiemonsters coat-tails, but Disc Lorde has proven stubborn and hard to beat since his late entry to the game. Disc Lorde starts well, his opening two Moon's eclipsing Zjoot's Lightning and Air. Zjoot fights back with his Woman, but Disc Lorde's final Moon is too big to fit in his Bowl and earns Disc a first win.

Lightning loses to Moon
Air loses to Moon
Woman beatsMoon
Bowl loses to Moon
1-3

Yes, believe it or not, not a single draw today! That should have shaken the table up a bit:

Betting

The lack of draws today, particularly for Zar Peter, did mean not so many bets paid out. Still, Zar Peter won 4 greasy poles, Nonayer got 8 gangly porcupines, and Haruki earned 10 gumbo pastries.

The joint winners of today's betting are Dallas and Mordokai, whose bets on Zar finally came through! They each won 20 grumbly pandas.

Round 6 Results

Three whitewashes today, and only one of them due to inactivity.

Bladescape vs Zar Peter

Will Zar Peter continue his winning ways, or could he revert to type? He starts well, his Sun giving Bladescape's Woman sunburn. But in the next three plays the Snake is king, each one beating Air, Woman, and Monkey. In the end, Bladescape has two Snakes to Zar Peter's one, and that's what gets him a draw.

Woman loses to Sun
Snake beats Air
Woman loses to Snake
Snake beats Monkey
2-2

Cuthalion vs Fleeing Coward

Fleeing Coward is on a three match losing run, and when Cuthalion outwits a Devil with his Wolf things don't look like they're going to get any better. But FC has kept faith with his tactics, and his Snake, Tree and Woman see off Cuthalion's pack of Paper Wolves to score a comeback win.

Wolf beats Devil
Wolf loses to Snake
Wolf loses to Tree
Paper loses to Woman
1-3

Dallas-Dakota vs Disc Lorde

Dallas is on fire...literally. The cookiemonster's winning streak comes to an incendiary end as Disc Lorde immolates him with an unceasing barrage of Dragon's. Not only DD's first loss, but a whitewash at that. Will the manner of this defeat affect the confidence of our leader?

Rock loses to Dragon
Sun loses to Dragon
Fire loses to Dragon
Axe loses to Dragon
0-4

Tylorious vs Tom the Mime

Or, as I keep on typing, Tom the Mine. Tom takes it to heart, and Rock's up to this round with a large amount of unwieldy boulders. Tylorious decides to avoid getting squashed...either that or he forgot to send actions in. Three in a row for Tom!

_ loses to Rock
_ loses to Rock
_ loses to Rock
_ loses to Rock
0-4

Haruki-kun vs Nonayer

Nonayer decides to bring the noise to this battle, and that noise is the ceaseless pounding of waves. Fortunately for Haruki, his Moon, Wolf and Man all float, and only his Sun is doused.

Moon beats Water
Wolf beats Water
Sun loses to Water
Man beats Water
3-1

Zjoot vs Mordokai

Like Disc Lorde, Mordokai brings a gang of Dragon's with him to immolate Zjoot. However, rather than fighting fire with fire, Zjoot brings out his best defences, and his Sponge, Water, Bowl, and Air stymie every Dragon that comes his way. An impressive whitewash from our resident yellow lion.

Sponge beats Dragon
Water beats Dragon
Bowl beatsDragon
Air beats Dragon

Betting

A lot of backing for Disc Lorde against the current leader, all of which paid off!

Nonayer won 4 gratuitous palanquins, Haruki scored 10 grand pineapples, and Zar Peter 12 glistening pimples.

But, there were three big betting winners today. Zjoot and Cuthalion both won 20 gigantic peaches, whilst Tom the Mime earned no less than 25 glossy parakeets!

Bladescape vs Zar Peter

Will Zar Peter continue his winning ways, or could he revert to type? He starts well, his Sun giving Bladescape's Woman sunburn. But in the next three plays the Snake is king, each one beating Air, Woman, and Monkey. In the end, Bladescape has two Snakes to Zar Peter's one, and that's what gets him a draw.

Woman loses to Sun
Snake beats Air
Woman loses to Snake
Snake beats Monkey
2-2

*snip*

Yes, believe it or not, not a single draw today! That should have shaken the table up a bit:

Round 7 Results

Bladescape vs Fleeing Coward

The only player yet to win against the only player yet to draw. Fleeing Coward changes things up for this game, moving away from his biblical approach and into the popular Dragon technique. Bladescape counters well though, and his Moon, Alien and Man all survive the draconic onslaught, with only his Nuke going down in a ball of flames. A first win for Bladescape!

Moon beats Dragon
Alien beats Dragon
Man beats Dragon
Nuke loses to Dragon
3-1

Cuthalion vs Tom the Mime

FC may have moved away from the biblical approach, but Tom decides to mime him for this round. If only Cuthalion would have turned up, we may have found out how effective it was.

_ loses to Devil
_ loses to Snake
_ loses to Tree
_ loses to Woman
0-4

Dallas-Dakota vs Haruki-kun

Dallas suffered his first loss last round, and he's out to make an impression against our resident angel. His opening Moon bests Haruki's Alien, but there are plenty more Alien's where that one came from! Dallas has an Alien of his own, and stalemates the second play, then his Devil goes down to an Alien probe. 1-1 moving into the last play, and DD wins by making an Alien choke on the poisonous Air of earth to score another win.

Moon beats Alien
Alien ties Alien
Devil loses to Alien
Air beats Alien
2-1

Tylorious vs Nonayer

Nonayer hasn't won for quite a while, but he has a good chance this round against the often absent Tylorious. Tylorious again fails to turn up, giving Nonayer the whitewash win.

_ loses to Gun
_ loses to Alien
_ loses to Sponge
_ loses to Monkey
0-4

Zar Peter vs Zjoot

Zar Peter starts well here in the battle of the Z's, his Man and Tree squashing Zjoot's first two Cockroaches. However, Zjoot's second wave beat the Bowl and Nuke to consign Zar to a sixth draw in seven rounds.

Man beats Cockroach
Tree beats Cockroach
Bowl loses to Cockroach
Nuke loses to Cockroach
2-2

Disc Lorde vs Mordokai

Disc Lorde has been on an impressive unbeaten run since he joined the contest late, and has clearly been shopping at Allen's Axe Emporium. His first two Axes chop up Mordy's Monkey and Cockroach, but his third is useless against Water, and his last outmatched against the Gun. Another draw.

Axe beats Monkey
Axe beats Cockroach
Axe loses to Water
Axe loses to Gun
2-2

Betting

Not many betting wins today, but those that do win big, mainly due to believing in DD. Nonayer wins 16 greasy pylons, Dallas gets 20 griever pendants, and Disc Lorde earns 30 genuine piñatas!

Round 8 Results

Another couple of firsts this round, but as you will see, Zar Peter never changes. :smalltongue:

Bladescape vs Dallas-Dakota

Top plays bottom here. Should be an easy win for Dallas, but Bladescape has plenty of confidence coming off the back of his first win. Unfortunately Dallas has bought just what he needs to deal with Blade's Snakes and Women. His Rock, Scissors, Axe and Nuke all take down their respective targets, giving DD a whitewash win.

Woman loses to Rock
Snake loses to Scissors
Woman loses to Axe
Snake loses to Nuke
0-4

Cuthalion vs Tylorious

With both players inactive in the previous round, this game was always going to be a case of who turned up. Cuthalion wakes up and clutches his Water Gun Gun Gun, but finds he has no-one to shoot at.

Water beats _
Gun beats _
Gun beats _
Gun beats _
4-0

Fleeing Coward vs Nonayer

Fleeing Coward brings Fire, and lots of it to this battle, possibly in homage to Dr Hibbert. Nonayer starts well, with his Rock and Sun resisting the flames, but his Paper Moon isn't so lucky. A first draw for FC!

Fire loses to Rock
Fire loses to Sun
Fire beats Moon
Fire beats Paper
2-2

Haruki-kun vs Zjoot

Haruki opens up with a bang, shooting Zjoot's Wolf, but the lions Monkey fights back, eating the angels Cockroach. A Snake off ends in a stalemate, but Haruki's Tree outlives Zjoot's Sponge to earn him a victory.

Gun beats Wolf
Roach loses to Monkey
Snake ties Snake
Tree beats Sponge
2-1

Zar Peter vs Mordokai

A real grudge match here. Zar Peter has cost Mordy a lot of bets with his continued draws...there really was only one way this match was going to go, wasn't there?

Tree loses to Fire
Nuke beats Sun
Gun beats Snake
Nuke loses to Air
2-2

Disc Lorde vs Tom the Mime

Both players are in good form, so the winner of this game is anyone's guess. Both decide to go for the all or nothing approach, but it's Tom's Monkeys that best the Moons to give Tom a fifth consecutive win.

Moon loses to Monkey
Moon loses to Monkey
Moon loses to Monkey
Moon loses to Monkey
0-4

So, Zjoot and Disc Lorde have done themselves no harm at all in their last three matches, but both Tom the Mime and Dallas-Dakota were strangely off colour. It’s close at the top, and a complete melee in midfield, so lets see how the final table looks:


Final Standings

{table=head]] Position | change | Name | Matches | Wins | Draws | Loss | Scores for | Scores against | Points
1 | 0 | Dallas-Dakota | 11 | 7 | 2 | 2 | 24 | 16 | 23
2 | +1 | Zjoot | 11 | 6 | 3 | 2 | 29 | 14 | 21
3 | -1 | Tom the Mime | 11 | 6 | 3 | 2 | 29 | 15 | 21
4 | +5 | Disc Lorde | 11 | 4 | 4 | 3 | 22 | 22 | 16
5 | -1 | Haruki-kun | 11 | 4 | 3 | 4 | 21 | 20 | 15
6 | +2 | Mordokai | 11 | 4 | 3 | 4 | 20 | 23 | 15
7 | -2 | Zar Peter | 11 | 2 | 8 | 1 | 24 | 19 | 14
8 | -2 | Fleeing Coward | 11 | 4 | 2 | 5 | 21 | 21 | 14
9 | +1 | Nonayer | 11 | 4 | 2 | 5 | 21 | 21 | 14
10 | -3 | Cuthalion | 11 | 3 | 2 | 6 | 19 | 24 | 11
11 | +1 | Bladescape | 11 | 2 | 3 | 6 | 15 | 27 | 9
12 | -1 | Tylorious | 11 | 1 | 3 | 7 | 10 | 33 | 6[/table]

So, a second win for Bladescape saves him from the ignominy of finishing below our regular absentee at the bottom, whilst a good late showing from Nonayer pushes him up towards mid-table. Zar Peter drops a couple, having drawn only one of his final three matches, and was overtaken by the fast finishing Disc Lorde, who jumps up to 4th. Had he started from Round 1 rather than Round 3, he may have managed the podium!

Zjoot wins all of his final three matches and makes a surprise late charge for the win, he passes Tom the Mime and moves up to 2nd, but catching Dallas-Dakota proves a step too far. Our resident Cookiemonster doesn’t set the world alight in his last three matches, but he does just enough to stay ahead of the field.


Congratulations Dallas-Dakota, you are the winner of Rock Paper Scissors Season 4!

Betting

Despite the 30 green placentas I gave everyone for this end phase, not many people won, having gone for some unlikely bets in the hope of a big win. Still, those that won bets got some decent rewards, and were the folks who were winning plenty anyway, creating a big gap between top and middle.

Zar Peter won 16 glowing peaches, Dallas-Dakota and Nonayer each won 20 gelatinous polyhedrons, but the biggest winner of the final days was Disc Lorde, who won 30 gilded ponies!


{table=head]]Player|Current Winnings|Winnings this Round|Biggest Win
Dallas-Dakota|113|20|25
Disc Lorde|108|30|30
Nonayer|87|20|25
Zar Peter|87|16|25
Haruki-kun|52|0|26
Tom the Mime|50|0|25
Cuthalion|40|0|20
Zjoot|36|0|20
Fleeing Coward|35|0|35
Mordokai|20|0|20
Bladescape|18|0|14
Tylorious|10|0|10
Reinholdt|0|0|0[/table]

So, Dallas-Dakota wins the betting pool too. Show off. :smalltongue:

Disc Lorde nearly chased him down though, and Zar Peter gets an honourable mention for winning at least one bet in all but one round. Fleeing Coward scored the biggest single round win of 35 greasy palaeontologists, but unfortunately for him, it’s the only round he wins!


And so, onto some meaningless statistics and prizes:

Longest Win Streak – Tom the Mime – 5 (Round 4-8)
Longest Draw Streak – Zar Peter – 4 (Round 1-4)
Longest Losing Streak – Tylorious – 6 (Round 6-11)
Most Matches Without a Win – Bladescape (Round 1-6) & Tylorious (Round 6-11) - 6
Most Matches Without Defeat – Zar Peter - 9 (Round 1-9)
Most Matches Without a Draw – Fleeing Coward – 7 (Round 1-7)
Most 4-0 Whitewashes For – Tom the Mime - 4
Most 4-0 Whitewashes Against – Tylorious – 6


Now, time for poorly designed prizes!

Congratulations Dallas! Great game.

And thanks to Banjo for hosting. Only nitpick I have is that I think I tied with Nonayer the third place in bettings. I mean poorly designed prize wise... :smallredface:

Indeed, sorry about that, another trophy on its way.
