Don’t get me wrong, I totally understand the rules of the game, its rather simple. My question is how do people manage to play out 3 rounds in less than 5 seconds?
For me, it’s a multi-step mental challenge that would take me like 15 to 20 seconds slowed down to complete.
-
- Pick a word, Rock, Paper, Scissors
-
- Remember how to shape my hand
-
- Punch Rock into my palm a couple times anyways, as apparently Rock is the default before the actual sign is thrown
-
- Remind myself how to arrange my own hand sign when the round is up
-
- Observe the opponent’s sign, which is only presented for about a half of a second
- ?. Oh fuck, I didn’t have enough time to register the opponent’s hand sign
-
- Feel like a fucking idiot and walk away
Seriously, how is this game played so quickly? Is it more suitable for people that know sign language or something?
I think it’s just practice. I also need time to think through what’s happening, but I have only played it a few times in my life. I’m not used to it.
We start out slowly with any new things. Then you do it a lot, over and over, and you don’t have to think about it anymore.
