Inaugural LSS Paper Scissors Rock Championship 2009

Do people tell you that Paper Scissors Rock (or Rock Paper Scissors… whatever) is a game of luck? Do you believe that provided a decent amount of games you can gain a psychological hold over your opponent and claim a deserved and totally skill based victory?

Well then you are ideally placed to volunteer yourself for a spot in the Inaugural LSS Paper Scissors Rock Championship 2009. Here’s how the format will work.

Week 5’s Mallesons BBQ on Thursday 2 April will host the first two rounds of the tournament. 16 people in each round. (You can’t register for both rounds unless there are no other takers… which given the concept... is unlikely to say the least).

This is the round of 16. You play your opponent. It is first to 10 wins. A victory will allow progression to the quarters and then the semis and then provided you have the mental acumen, the Final. The Final is a first to 20 affair designed to test your powers of mental endurance. The winner is declared Champion for that round.

The rest of the BBQs will host one round per BBQ until there will be 8 Champions who are eligible to play in the Tournament of Champions event which is scheduled to feature all the winners of previous rounds in a gruelling series of matches to determine the LSS Paper Scissors Rock Title Holder for 2009. To win this exclusive title, one superhuman player must get past a demanding field with First to 15 matches before the final which will see a marathon First to 25 matches.

If you are still reading you must be very excited, almost as much as I am.

Details

Registration for the round of 16 at each BBQ will take place at 1pm. The Matches will begin at around 1:30pm (this may vary) and will feature exclusive expert commentary.

All you have to do to enter is come up to Nudge or Harry (whoever has the registration sheet for that round) and put your name in for some good old fashion fun!

See ya on the battlefield!
