30. A very good question, but unfortunately one with far too many answers. Since most cultures lay claim to some form of RPS it is very difficult to pin down any consensus. However, here is a summary of the most common abstract meanings of the throws: Rock - Power, Strength, Aggression, NaturePaper - Passivity, Stealth, Wisdom (money sometimes as well), Literacy Scissors - Deviousness, Ingenuity, Evil, Technology The list could likely go on forever, but from our experience those are them. In terms of the psychological roles that the elements play in a game of RPS, it is usually agreed that R = Aggressive, P = Passive, S = Devious |
