    That’s just instead of saying, “Rock, Paper, Scissors, SHOOT!”. “Shoot” is when both players put out their hands, just like RPS.

    And yes, the players have to agree on which one of them is Odds and which one is Evens beforehand.

    When I used to play a game where we had to randomize who went first, my best friend and I decided in advance that I’d always be Evens and he’d always be Odds.

    There’s no difference, but if you absolutely can’t agree on who’s what you could always flip a coin for it.

      Funny, here in Germany everyone I know goes on the third word, there’s no “shoot” equivalent.

      Schere, Stein, Papier! And you go on the last syllable of Papier

      Ah I see, thanks for explaining! I feel a bit dense right now, but what is “says” supposed to mean? Or am I thinking about it too much and it’s just a fill word to have a four word chant.
