Too look even deeper into it, you need to know what terrain and in what location they'll be fighting in. A rock rolling down a hill could easily hit another rock and and lose automatically. If it rains, then the rock will have an easier time breaking through paper. And if it's very very cold, the scissors could freeze and not be able to close.DonMartin said:To look even deeper into it, what is their motivation? As we all know, will is a key factor to every aspect of the human/wooden/stone/paper being, and could quickly turn the tide in battle.dathwampeer said:TheNamlessGuy said:Rock, paper and scissors.
Just to see what is the ultimate choice.

I dunnoo... I mean Rock is pretty inanimate. So is Scissors. But Paper flys around in the wind. So it could give old rock a good slapping before being blown away completely. Rock and Scissors would just sit agasp at Papers audacity.
That and no one actually specifies the amount of paper. It could be like an entire tree's worth of paper. And it just sits there laughing menacingly.
True story.
For a practical example, rocks need something to put them in motion, they cannot move by themselves, as already pointed out by dathwampeer and your kindergarten teacher, so rock would need something to get it going. What is that? Is this a battle to the death? Or has Paper and Scissors kidnapped rocks family and are holding them hostage?
These are all factors that are needed to be taken into consideration.
And also, what is the shape of the rock and how big is it? Is it a pebble, or is it a huge boulder? The same can be asked for the paper and scissors.
