lacanteen Posted July 13, 2020 Author Share Posted July 13, 2020 If everyone on earth was to compete in a global game of Rock Paper Scissors, the winner will only have to play 32 times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm no mathematician but it seems like it would be closer to 20. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Mage Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 This is simple enough just by taking a calculator and dividing the estimated population by 2, and repeating. Although even with the population rounded to 7.8 billion, you still end up with fractions after the 10th round. But this is jut having to deal with one extra person a few times. But I come up with 33, not 32. I am sure there is a formula for this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lacanteen Posted July 14, 2020 Author Share Posted July 14, 2020 It's actually more of a theoretical statement because in reality, people are born and die around the world every minute. Also, there's a number of people that physically couldn't participate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clearly, my view is the correct one because I identify as a correct person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm declaring this a liberal debate and calling you a racist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He even delayed the filing of the paperwork until large areas of land were under contract. Still it did eventually become known that somebody was buying up real estate. An "East coast Disneyland" was even one of the rumors, but apparently NASA was more popular. (I watch too many documentaries.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
