> If we want to have a game where every weapon is a viable option, then we can’t bump RPS’s 3 to 4. We have to jump all the way to 5 choices with the game Rock – Paper – Scissors – Lizard – Spock. Each weapon beats two others and loses to two. The big downside of this game is complexity – I’m not a Trekkie and have no idea how Spock and Lizard are supposed to relate to the others. The upside is that ties are less common. For RPS 1/3 of all games will be a tie, while for RPSLS this drops to 1/5 – good if you want more decisive outcomes.
