Description

This is technically an exercise in minimal multiplayer game design.

The basic play is simply that of rock,paper,scissors against everyone else in a competitive economy.

Yup, that simple.

But wait, there's more...

Despite this I do feel it has some depth, by far the most basic strategy of any web game that has turns happening at a set interval is to sneak up on other people while they sleep or go visit their sick mother. Well with this, that is the only tactic :)

I also claim some mild resemblance to humour.

I'm still throwing pieces together and adding a small amount of complexity but it is currently up and running as I want it and I would really appreciate any bored geeks who read this to sign up and poke it with pointy sticks. I wont know if this actually works at all until I have many people poking it.
