afk-rps

Rock paper scissors against a friend, one blind throw at a time — a game for the afk-arcade to play while your AI agent finishes the job.

The rules

Best of five, first to three. You and your opponent throw at the same time — neither of you can see the other's throw until both are in, because the server holds them back. This isn't the client's good manners; it's enforced server-side. A tie replays the round rather than advancing it.

Keys

| key | does | |---|---| | R P S | throw rock, paper, or scissors | | Q | leave — the match waits for you, so quitting mid-game costs nothing |

Sign in

afk-rps needs a GitHub sign-in the first time you run it, so a match can find you by handle and follow you between terminals. Follow the device-code prompt once; after that you're remembered.

Read the history

The one thing on screen worth studying is your opponent's throw history. People are bad at being random.
