Edited by: Mach 1 on 07/05/2010 13:09:26 i understand how scissors can beat paper, and i get how a rock can beat scissors, but theres no ****ing way paper can beat rock. is paper supposed to magically wrap around rock and leave it immobile? why the hell cant paper do this to scissors? screw scissors, why cant paper do this to people? why aren't sheets of college ruled notebook paper constantly suffocating students as they take notes in class? ill tell you why, because paper cant beat anybody, a rock would tear that **** up in 2 seconds. when i play rock paper scissors, i always choose rock. then when somebody claims to have beaten me with their paper i can punch them in the face with my already clenched fist and say, oh **** im sorry, i thought paper would protect you, you *******.
to make this relevant to eve replace the word paper for CVA

Or a restraining order, limiting rock's whereabouts to outside a 5km radius of paper.

Paper in the form of an arrest warrant beats rock. Then there was that episode of mythbusters where they made a deadly bow and arrow out of paper. So while CVA may not beat rock, paper has it's methods. Maybe a better analogy would be cva and a ball of cotton? support the parrot

This theory looks good on paper, but you can't squeeze water from a stone that way.

In theory, paper could win over scissor if paper was wrapped tightly around the scissor making scissor unable to cut.

There is not a single problem, ever, that cannot be solved without the judicious, and in some cases extremely swift, application of rock.

Quote: The objective is to select a gesture which defeats that of the opponent. Gestures are resolved as follows: Rock blunts or breaks scissors: that is, rock defeats scissors Scissors cut paper: scissors defeats paper Paper covers or captures rock: paper defeats rock
I suppose by covering/capturing the rock, it is a ~tactical victory~ Who cares about the killmail anyway.

Nah, it was poor game design.
DUDE 1: We need a new game, think of some kind of useful tool.
DUDE 2: Scissors.
DUDE 1: Ok, right. So what ****s up scissors?
DUDE 2: ROCKS.
DUDE 1: Sweet, that works. Now we need something that ****s up rocks but is in turn ****ed up by scissors.
DUDE 2: Alabama Chain-Gang?
DUDE 1: Something shorter, smaller and easier to mime dude. And less racist.
DUDE 2: ****, we're screwed. We'll pretend something stupid like 'paper' defeats rock.
DUDE 1: Done. Putting the 'irate' into 'Pirate' |

On further analysis, Paper needs a boost.
Rock destroys scissors, leaving them unusable. Scissors chops paper into little ineffectual bits. Both are clear solo victories.
At best, paper subdues rock and holds it down until reinforcements arrive. It achieves a stalemate only. |

In Chinese, the game is "scissors, rock, cloth". I can see how a good piece of cloth could hold its own against rock: you'd have to hit it a hell of a lot of times to make a hole in it, and before long you'd get tired and your opponent could garrote you with the cloth. But paper? I think one hit with a rock would tear a normal piece of paper in two. (Depends what kind of surface the paper is sitting on.)
The EVE equivalent of this game is of course, "blob, troll, metagame": Troll beats metagame, metagame beats blob, blob beats troll. Discuss?
