I guess this shows my ignorance, I had no idea rock paper scissors was called this. I only knew of the South Park version http://southpark.cc.com/clips/103724/rochambeau

I was trying to think how iocaine powder would help in this scenario when I clicked in. Shows how our vernacular was shaped a bit though.

That is great, I wonder if they memorised the sequence, had notes out of shot, were signalling to each other on the side away from the camera, or just did a lot of takes.

This also gives me an excuse to post Lasse Gjertson's excellent short animation, 'Roshambo' - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IGzdzRFftBc

Just guessing, but the scene is really well set-up for cues to be given from directly in front of the relevant actor.

For an interesting roshambo variant take a look at: https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/animal_world_2018 or https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kaiji_(manga)
