Pojuer, in rock-paper-scissors, rock (a fist) beats scissors (two fingers up) beats paper (all five fingers open) beats rock.

holy crap! that rocked! Me and my friend were sitting here trying to figure it out...using our hands...and we never figured it out...awesome teaser...keep it up
That was awesome, thanks!
That was the best one I've seen in a long time.
Wow, that was easy. I just looked at it and BAM i thought of Rock-Paper-Scissors!
but that was a good one.
i thought it was numbers below the number line(negetive numbers)
good job! I put my fist up with the hint and felt maybe it was to hit someone who was two faced... okay, maybe too much aggression early in the morning!
I DO like that one. The look at your fingers clue really confused me. Nice one.
This is one of the best teasers on this site!
Fantastic teaser!!
Yay!!! I got it right!!!!

EASY
Loved this one
I was stumped, but I literally guessed to myself, just in a joking, obviously-wrong way: "Rock, paper, scissors?" just because it is a cyclic trio. I had no idea that I was actually guessing the right answer, cause I wasn't thinking of the fingers thing.
