VICTORY COULD BE AT HAND: Knowing our interest in the subject, Graham Walker of the World Rock Paper Scissors Society wanted me to pass along word that the 2003 Rock Paper Scissors International World Championships will be taking place on October 25, 2003, in Toronto.
Walker tells me they expect to have about 1000 of the World's best players competing this year and have athletes registered from the UK, 6 US States and Canada. The winner will receive $5000.00 (CDN) (or, about $3,760 US) and, more importantly, will be able to claim the title of RPS Champion of the World.
The competition website has videos, rules and profiles of the leading competitors. (According to Rule 6.0.2, in case you were unsure, "Paper wins against Rock, loses to Scissors and stalemates against itself")
If you want to practice your skills, go here. Just one question: can you really call something a world championship when it excludes most of the planet from participating?
