DownloadShall we play a game?
Perhaps the greatest strategy game yet devised.
Rock,
paper,
scissors.
On these three,
through human history,
have hung so many critical moments,
their outcome determined by
rock defeating scissors,
scissors defeating paper,
or paper defeating rock.
This being the most critical,
for you will test your skill against me
and might have the luckiest day of your life
by winning not just on the first round,
on the first try,
but also then the second,
the third,
again and again,
win after win,
stacking nerve-wracking odds until you achieve
a one in a million
winning streak.
Impossible, you say?
Well, I've got the spreadsheets to
prove it's all but inevitable,
at least for someone.
See, you have just joined a group of
the nearest million viewers of this video
to you,
in time,
all now players prepping,
getting ready to
rock with rock,
prevail with paper,
or slay with scissors.
Your million cohort stands strong at the start,
but after each round,
only the winners shall remain.
Repeat and repeat
until there will be but one,
ONE WINNER
in a million.
One who will feel like a surreal
god of this game.
Pretty great, right?
Now, a note.
Of course, we aren't really
playing live in a hall,
you are watching this video,
that I wrote in your past,
to play against you across time.
So to you, I am set in stone.
I can't know what you throw,
I can only reveal the paths onward,
through this maze of probability,
and trust in you to continue true.
But I warn you now,
Alright!
Enough weird foreshadowing.
Good luck to everyone in this group of a million.
Get your mind in the game.
Get your fist in the air.
We're about to play the first round,
and I'm gonna go rock,
or am I?
Rock paper scissors can be
such a mind game, you know.
Am I going rock?
Maybe I am.
Maybe I'm not.
Either way, I'm totally going rock.
Ready?
This is for real.
Rock, paper, scissors,
and
shoot.
