Legend also has it, that in the time of early primitive man, before paper or scissors were invented, the play was always rock, thus inevitably a tie. It is theorized that this is partly why mankind stayed in the stone age for so long a time, since the primary purpose Rock Paper Scissor is done for decision making of who is to perform some type of work or undesirable task, even unto this day. With the tie always occurring, and many tasks not being accomplished as a result, technological advancements throughout the early ages were very slow in coming. Later in history however, paper was finally invented by the Egyptians, and now another choice was available, and though this did help for a short while in ending the continual tying dilemma, it didn’t take long for even the slow ones to catch on to the fact that paper always beat rock, and was the only logical play. Fortunately, with the invention of paper, a means to cut it to a proper size was a new and essential requirement, and it didn’t take very long before scissors were invented, and they were quickly included in the mix with rock and paper. This missing piece of the game was instrumental the decision making processes of early man, and from that point forward, much progress was made, progressing mankind to where he is now, do quit simply to rapid decision making and many chores large and small finally being accomplished without excuse.
