seriously just spam ryker and you cant lose, only draw

you will win in 3 turns, having extra pressure on the last one because you can throw paper if you have that luxury

the only way you can come close to losing is by your opponent throwing Soup and then Ryker, which will deal a total of 90 damage, but after that you just draw by throwing Ryker.


tl;dr make Ryker limited to once/game

There are no draws. Once a player's HP hits 0, they lose. Same as prisoners dilemma. If both players go for the prize, they will both end up with harsher sentences. If one goes for the prize, he gets less of a sentence while the other gets a harsh sentence. If neither of them go for the prize, they both get less harsh sentences.

how to win iterated (i.e. repeated plays) of prisoner's dilemma;

#1 co-operate
#2 do whatever your opponent did

Yeah to win standard PD, you start out with the lowest consequence, then do tit-for-tat (whatever your opponent last did). Though in Ryker, Paper, Soup it seems using that strategy will ultimately lead to Ryker every time. The only way to win this is to not use Ryker in the first two moves even if your opponent does. If your opponent uses Ryker twice, then you're probably screwed but can still come back if you keep blocking their paper and then use ryker when they use Soup. If your opponent uses ryker once, then you're in a battle.

Xonar that diagram does my head, i can barely make sense of it.

I was gonna say that RPSLS basically just adds a layer of unnecessary complexity, but that takes the biscuit.

Rock > Scissors, Lizard
Paper > Rock, Spock
Scissors > Paper, Lizard
Lizard > Spock, Paper
Spock > Scissors, Rock

(l@wiki)

less ways to draw

Woman beats anything from Man til Dragon, then anything from Devil to Monkey beats her. Same pattern for every option. It's easy once you see it.

yeah I just got that

There's a much better way of drawing the same diagram, just a line from each symbol through the centre, between the two things opposite. Everything on the anti-clockwise side you beat, everything on the clockwise side you lose to.
