FAQ

Does the computer cheat or see your choice first?

No. The computer's pick is generated using your browser's cryptographic random-number generator the moment you choose, before either choice is revealed, so it can't react to your pick.

Is my score saved anywhere besides my browser?

No. Your wins, losses, ties and round history are saved only in your browser's local storage on this device, so the tally survives a reload but is never uploaded anywhere.

Can I play many rounds quickly?

Yes. After each round just pick again — there's no limit on rounds, and your most recent rounds stay listed in the history so you can track a streak.
