Voices of History - Old Time Radio Shows - OTR. Collected Quotes from Albert Einstein. [Note: This list of Einstein quotes was being forwarded around the Internet in e-mail, so I decided to put it on my web page. I'm afraid I can't vouch for its authenticity, tell you where it came from, who compiled the list, who Kevin Harris is, or anything like that.

A diagram explaining the outcomes of the game The normal form matrix of rock-paper-scissors-lizard-Spock. Rows represent available choices for player 1, columns those for player 2. Numbers in cells show utility (payoff) for player 1, player 2. Rock-paper-scissors-lizard-Spock is an expansion of the classic selection method game rock-paper-scissors.

It operates on the same basic principle, but includes two additional weapons: the lizard (formed by the hand as a sock-puppet-like mouth) and Spock[1] (formed by the Star Trek Vulcan salute). This reduces the chances of a round ending in a tie (from 1/3 to 1/5). Rules[edit] The rules of rock-paper-scissors-lizard-Spock are: There are ten possible pairings of the five gestures; each gesture beats two of the other gestures and is beaten by the remaining two.
