Oh dang, I'll have to check mine. I could use it to Legitimately Play Games That I Own. I've been getting The Itch to play the old Tekken games.

While working on a new book, I suddenly realized one interesting thing. "Rock, Paper, Scissors" is a game popular all over the world. But in my childhood we always played it with the addition of a well, even if it ruined the ideal balance of game options. So I was wondering if this was somewhere else or if the “well” was a local feature, like drinking tea without removing the spoon from the cup?Also write what additions you had to this (or other) games, both well-known ones and your own invention.

And as I've said it before (likely elsewhere given my irregularity here): I may not care for Vtubers as a medium but I fully approve of Korone being a brand ambassador for Sonic. I'd much rather it be someone who genuinely loves the series than the last decade they spent courting people who were best known for their hatred of it like Arin Hanson.

When I was a kid, I played rock paper scissors with other kids, and sometimes we all pulled out a 'gun' on each other with our fingers, completely ruining all game balance.

We just used dynamite. Index and middle fingers together, pointed upright like we were executing ninpo (This was prior to Ninja Gaiden popularizing the gesture).


Later someone came up with the idea that instead of a draw, it meant mutual loss, which didn't do anything to stop anyone from using it because we were all like 10 and thus extremely stupid.

Considering the concept of the show, I think that the name appeared because: "Such user already exists"
