Challenge friends to Rock-paper-scissors from anywhere! See if your favorite RPS strategy you learned from your cousin will get you on the top of the Ru-Sham-Bo leaderboard. Keep track of your Ru-Rank, win percentage and more. Battle to become the Ru-Sham-Bo Master!
This project was first conceived a few years ago by my students in the MHS Byte Club. Students wanted to create a game with minimal logic that others could play. The goal of the project was to build community within the school with friendly, low-stakes competition. At the time, this project was VASTLY out of my ability level. After building it here, I intend to bring the numerous lessons I've learned back to create a copy with the help of my students.
It is those students that inspired me to make this project and to them it is dedicated!

Thanks to the students of the MHS Byte Club for inspiring this and many other projects. Thanks to Joshua Kovach for his awesome post on bi-directional self referential assocations, without which I would have been stuck on Sprint 1. Thanks to my family for letting me disappear for hours while I code! (3 hr > 1 hr + 1 hr + 1 hr)!
To implement a many-to-many self join, I utilized a strategy outlined by Joshua Kovach [here] (https://collectiveidea.com/blog/archives/2015/07/30/bi-directional-and-self-referential-associations-in-rails). This strategy has numerous benefits for the app, but I've also identified the following limitations.
- Two users may only have one active 'match'
- It is hypothetically possible for match collisions to occur if two users instantiate a match within seconds of each other, before each match's inverse has been created.
