scud hammer....scoring?
« on: March 30, 2009, 08:47:11 pm »
i recently stumbled across a game called scud hammer the other day, which turned out to be a pretty stupid game of paper, rock, scissors...where the loser gets beat up.  the problem is my 2 year old thinks it is hilarious and wants me to keep playing it.

i just cant seem to figure out the scoring in this game.  there is a countdown then you press a button that corresponds to rock, scissors, or paper.  if you lose two rounds, they beat you up and the game is over.  if you win once, you beat them up a little, then play again...if you win again, you knock them out and then the game is over.  you are then presented with a ranking.  i just cant seem to figure out how ton increase the ranking...it seems to be random almost.  the AI is pretty predictable, so winning 8 or 9 rounds in a row is not difficult...i just dont understand how the scoring works. i figure if i have to play this game, i should at least play it well.

so...any ideas???

No ideas here, just wanted to say that I share the same interest in this game as your 2 YO ... I laughed to the point of tears one night  :laugh2:
So a leper walks into a bar and as he gets his beer, a finger falls off. The bartender who is serving him turns and pukes all over the place. The leper, feeling bad, says, "Was it my finger falling off?" The bartender turns to him and says, "No, it's the guy dipping chips into your back."
