Everybody
knows and has played this game, but have you ever wondered if there is any way
to win more often or if there is any way to do so? This video will solve this problem
:p
Questions:
1. When was
the last time you played rock paper scissors and did you play for a stake?
2. Do you
sometimes use mathematics: logic, probability, something from game theory in
decision making?

It's never for a stake when playing this game. It's always a quick and easy way to determine for example who will make his or her first move in a board game or something like that. I believe that i'v played rock paper scissors about a week ago.
2. Do you sometimes use mathematics: logic, probability, something from game theory in decision making?
I'm always trying to use it as it's improving my chances to win :)
A week ago and the stake was, the one who lose have to dial housing association and ask about how long we will be out of water as there where some repairs going on.
2. Do you sometimes use mathematics: logic, probability, something from game theory in decision making?
I try, but I am not so skilled with it to run full algorithms in a split second so usually my decision are based on my intuition. Well my intuition may be based on in some percentage on game theory but I'm not sure how huge the percentage can be.
Well, it was today. I'm developer in startup where we create blockchain casino games and rock paper scissors is a funny game we're currently launching, and yes, it's a game for cryptocurrency.
2. Do you sometimes use mathematics: logic, probability, something from game theory in decision making?
Sure. I think we all do use at least logic in decision making.
I think it was a couple of weeks or even days ago. It is actually not that rare for me to play it. It is almost always connected with either a sport activities (like who should start choosing teams first etc.) or choosing one person who has to do something that noone really wants to (like going to the store).
2. Do you sometimes use mathematics: logic, probability, something from game theory in decision making?
If we are talking about logic, probability etc. in their simplest form - then yes. But if we are talking about more advanced topics from this field - no I do not, It can take all the fun out of the games.
2. Of course I do. I think it’s very common and everybody at least try to improve their chances by such „mathematic operations”. I very often use those ‘tricks” while playing chess, although it may look like it’s not a tough game, in fact it requires a lot of theoretical knowledge, artifice and logical reasoning.
I guessed it was last year, when I was playing some pc game, sometimes I gambled in the game by playing rock paper scissors.
2. Do you sometimes use mathematics: logic, probability, something from game theory in decision making?
Yes, I do, math is my friend, and at least we can not make decisions without logic, and when it comes to some big problem like Business Intelligence, we all have to use mathematics to build models for finding out the best decision.
2. When I used to play I tried to sense my opponent playing theory mentioned in the movie and it was working very well. There was time when I played completely randomly and I was winning.
Wow, I can't even remember. I suspect that it was at the time of elementary school or junior high school. I probably played with a classmate or my cousin. Well, if you had to play rock paper scissors, there was always a stake. Most often it was not a material thing, but rather a task to do, delegating some duty to another person, or simply selecting a loser from two people who would have to do something.
2. Do you sometimes use mathematics: logic, probability, something from game theory in decision making?
Yes, even very often. When playing computer games with other players, the best tactic is simply to constantly think and try to anticipate and overtake their every move. In some games, there are well-established schemes by which most players move, then it's very simple. Sometimes, however, at a higher level you have to work hard to predict the movement of the opponent. However, this is never impossible, because usually some elements of the game direct both players to what the opponent can do next. Each move leads to the choice of hundreds of other moves. Some of them, however, are more likely than the rest. That is why it's worth thinking and choosing wisely.
2. To be honest, I never apply any theory or advice. Decisions about the choice of gesture are made on the basis of intuition. I can say that I have 50% efficiency. For rock, paper and scissors game, I will try to apply the tips from the movie.
I've never played this game for a stake. Usually we play it just to determine who is going to do certain activity without any deep meaning. It's easy, fast and convinient way to decide in many simple cases like who starts in some game or who will write a text in Word when we do some excercise for classes. Last time I played it about week ago.
2. Do you sometimes use mathematics: logic, probability, something from game theory in decision making?
In an advanced form - very rarely I think. I just consider different options and choose one that has the largest quantity of benefits. But simple logic and probability is used by everyone on a daily basis.
I played this game last time yesterday. It was the only solution to get away from putting the dishes in the dishwasher. I just know the tactics of my boyfriend in this game so that he always loses with me, and I can rest easily after dinner :D
2. Do you sometimes use mathematics: logic, probability, something from game theory in decision making?
Recently I take part in the competition. I use a lot of mathematics and formulas there and I create equations. Reads results from diagrams. It makes me very close to winning.
2. I never use a scissors, because I think that if we use paper or rock that we have more chance to win. But I’ve never though about using game theory or other logic.
2. In general, I don’t use any life hacks. I just randomly reproduce one of the three options that comes to mind. Although it’s a good idea. If there were professional players, they would introduce a whole theoretical course on this game, which would be based on everything that you indicated in your question.
2. For making decisions in my life I always try deliberately choose logic. But it manifests itself mostly by thinking a lot about different possibilities, and searching for the best achievable solution. I don't use any mathematical patterns or games of chance.
I did not and I played it couple of weeks ago.
2. Do you sometimes use mathematics: logic, probability, something from game theory in decision making?
Yes, always when I play cards ex. games like thousand as it really helps to win the game.
2. I personally do not, however, friends use mathematics to calculate the probability of bets. Many of them do it quite well but it is very labor intensive.

Hahahaha, I didn't play at any stake but I often play this game. Mostly when I can't decide with someone to make a decision or you just and quickly order the order.
2. Do you sometimes use mathematics: logic, probability, something from game theory in decision making?
No, once in high school, when I was studying probability, I thought about many things in this respect. However, today I think of it this way, but usually it only lasts a moment. It's a game, it's kind of fun, let's enjoy it.
Golden rule of the thumb (useful not only in the CIS) -- never ever play any stake games, no matter, what the stake is. Simple.
2. Do you sometimes use mathematics: logic, probability, something from game theory in decision making?
Yes, in fact, I was defending my high-school thesis about game theory. It is funny, how deep the humanity's knowledge in some things may be. The game theory actually is useful in decision making.
1. I guess it could be few months ago. I tend to use it as a way to make up someone’s mind, especially if they have a problem to decide what they want to do. The other way to do so is to flip a coin and ask about what the other person wanted the outcome to be before reveling the result.
2. I think we all tend to do this quite unconsciously, but on the other hand I guess the main goal of this game is fun and possible facilitation of decision making.

I think you might be interested.
I always play in rock paper scissors with my brother when one of us had to do some boring responsibilities in home or take care about shopping and none of us wanted to do it. It was the fastest and the most just way of dealing our home tasks. Right now we live separately but that doesn't bother us because there are always some unpleasant responsibilities waiting.
2. Do you sometimes use mathematics: logic, probability, something from game theory in decision making?
In my opinion that game is all about psychology. Of course there are some rules and we can calculate probabilities but when you start to play regularly you'll notice rules and repeated behaviors.

2. No, if I play game, I play it to have fun, not to prove something to someone by winning by all means necessary.
2. I think we use it every time while playing whether we want it or not.
2. To be honest I usually follow my heart and hunch when I make a decision. Of course, if I have to make big decision I will get at statistics, articles or others opinion. I think that we should use experiences and knowlenge of someone else and learn from the mistakes of others. In my opinion, logic or probability can be useful in business decision but in private life there is no use to devote time to mathematics methods.
Last time I played rock paper scissors was when I was arguing with my friend over who goes to the store for some snacks for the evening. Honestly, I play this game only for stake, these are small things, but still it's a game for stake. I can't recall a time that I played it just for fun.
2. Do you sometimes use mathematics: logic, probability, something from game theory in decision making?
When I make decision on what to choose, rock, paper or scissors I like to put myself in position of my opponent and think of what I would choose if I were him / her.
1. Most likely last weekend, when me and my friends were about to decide who starts in the game.
2. Hardly ever. I rather consider it as a fun fact sometimes, rather than use them practically.
2. Besides Rock Paper Scissors game, I try to use propability in my decision making. It gives me some view on given situation, whether the decision 1 will be better or should i choose option 2.
2. In my opinion logic, probability, game theory could be helpful if you are playing this game with complete strangers then you have more chances to win. However, if played with that person at least a few times it is better to use this knowledge to win.
No, I've never played "rock-paper-scissors" for a stake.
2. Sometimes I try to predict what my opponent will choose. The video featured two rules: winners repeat, losers change. It was funny because it's only half true to me. For example, when I win, I won't choose it again. But if I lose, I always choose something else. In general, I still rely more on luck. I think people play this game for fun. Therefore, there is no need to think through every step of the opponent and constantly analyze everything.
2. I always lost, I am really bad in this game. I am trying to predict what is he going to show, but as I said I am not a professional player.
I used to play it a lot as a child and I did it solely for fun reasons or maybe only who should start in some other competition or other stuff.
2. Do you sometimes use mathematics: logic, probability, something from game theory in decision making?
Sometimes but not strictly from game theory but purely based on things I learnt at school but on the other hand sometimes I’d rather prefer to let things go their own way and look how everything shapes.
I can't exactlly remember when I last time played rock, paper, scissors but I am sure that I played it for a stake. I am so sure because I play it only for a stake. It became an easy way of solving some issues between people and I approve it. Usually I use this game to solve a problem of whose turn it is when it comes to a queue for something. It decides who's first.
2. Do you sometimes use mathematics: logic, probability, something from game theory in decision making?
I think that I use it but I am unaware if. What I mean by that is that it's good to have those technics in your head because you don't have to use them consciously to benefit from them. It is something more like a passive skill. Exactlly like a language. You don't have to try to understand something - you just do.
Last time I played rock paper scissors last week, when my neighbors and I argue over whose turn it was to take out garbage.
2. Do you sometimes use mathematics: logic, probability, something from game theory in decision making?
Of course, when I have time to think and figure out, I try to apply this knowledge as an example to calculate the probability of something, but when there is no time, I rely on my intuition and purely male logic.
I don't even remember when it was :D probably when i was a kid for gambling to win a turn to start the match.
2. Do you sometimes use mathematics: logic, probability, something from game theory in decision making?
Hmm, since I am a difficult decisioner yes I sometimes just give a shot on game theory to making the decision unless it's not an important question/point on my life.
2. Practically all the time, using logic is easier.
2. Yes, in betting.
2. Consciously not. Maybe in the subconscious I do some analysis, but I do not use the probability theory on a daily basis.
Sometimes I use games to make decisions, but it's not very common. However, I like to exchange gammes, mathematical or logical with my friends.
I am playing this game quite often with my friends. We are doing this when some stupid work should be done and no one wants to do this, so we are playing rock, paper, scissors to decide who is going to do this work.
2. Do you sometimes use mathematics: logic, probability, something from game theory in decision making?
Some time ago I tried to do so, but the result wasn't so good and I decided just to try and play randomly without any measures. I think there is some analysis still done by my brain in the background, but I am not sure.
I really don’t remember I would say few years and I never played rock paper scissors for a stake?
2. Do you sometimes use mathematics: logic, probability, something from game theory in decision making?
Never I prefer to rely on instinct that is mostly wrong or luck that is capricious… hmmm I think maybe I really should try mathematics: logic, probability or something from game theory in my decision making.
2. It's referring to the game and my attitude to it. In most cases, if I play games, I do it for fun and just to calm down and relax. But some games I play to challenge my thinking ability. In this case, I make graphs and tables and gather statistics. If it's possible, I try to lose a couple of games to gather information about my opponent, his tactics, and future turns. I think the best thing that can predetermine the whole flow of a game is knowledge. Rarely used mechanics and knowledge about every aspect of the game, along with knowledge of the psychology of the opponent, can push you to make the move that can be a point of no return for your rival. And I don't anticipate every move, but rather predict five or even ten best moves and find ways to neglect one that can be the most painful for me. Sometimes I even make moves that can shift the enemy's attention to the things I need and force him to make bad moves.
It was so long ago ... Maybe 5 years ago ... There were good times ... After all, serious problems were solved with the help of this game.
2. Do you sometimes use mathematics: logic, probability, something from game theory in decision making?
It’s funny to use logic that doesn’t always work correctly ... But still, sometimes I tried to predict what it was like to play with each other.
2. In some games, of course, I try to use various methods to increase the chance of winning, such as probability or logic. One of my favorite such games is the card game "1000". However, not all games and their rules allow us to think and prepare using game theory. Sometimes speed, intelligence and cleverness are needed.
I cant even remember when i last played rock, paper, scisors and it for sure wasnt for stake.
2. Do you sometimes use mathematics: logic, probability, something from game theory in decision making?
I dont think so. I dont have that knowleadge about those subjects to use them in practice.
I can't remember in my mind any resent situation but I'm sure that stake was who pays for the beer.
2. Do you sometimes use mathematics: logic, probability, something from game theory in decision making?
I try my best to use any of those but it's not as easy as I would like it to be, most of those decisions are made fast.
