Lordy, there was an exciting RPS throw-down at the Reaux-Sham-Dome on Saturday. Four competitors entered the field of honor, only two would leave with their undefeated records in tact. The tension was palpable, the gatherd throngs anxious as four glorious RPS gladiators entered the hallowed grounds.

Darin------RSPPPRPSPP*P-2
Rashid----PSRPSRPSSS*S-4

* Represents a judges' "No Throw" decision

Rashid was one half of last week's most exciting match. Darin, who received a first round bye was untested in this tournament, but is known for his tenacious attitude in RPS circles.

Once again, Rashid was involved in the match of the day. Winning the first throw, Rashid then went 7 throws without a winner, surrendering his early lead to a 2-1 advantage for Darin. Two straight throws of "Scissors" gave Rashid a 3-2 lead. Then controversey reared it's ugly head. Darin's throw, presumably of "Scissors" only included one extended finger. The assembled throng sat in open-mouthed, awed silence. The judges ruled "No Throw" and warned Darin that another such throw would result in a DQ. It was a moot point as Rashid's next throw of "Scissors" defeated Darin's "Paper."


BOJ------PRPRRSRSR-1
BPM-----RPSRPSRSP-4

BOJ claimed to have scripted his first three throws, a tactic used with great success by 49ers coach Bill Walsh. After the first throw, the tactic looked good for BOJ, but the scripted portion of the match ended up with BPM holding a 2-1 lead. The match was over after that, BOJ never winning another throw, though four of the next six throws were pushes.

Congratulations to both finalists in this years RPS tournament. It's an honor to get this far, both contentents proving to be ferociious competitiors, showing a tenacity, blah, blah, blah, blah...
