This game, originally known as rochambeau violates the basic mathematical concept of transitivity, which states that for a transitive relation R, a R b and b R c implies a R c. Notions of "greater" or "lesser" follow from the ordering implied by the transitive relation.
What is this game?
This was made by Shayak Sen last year, and was in my opinion the best question of Genesis. I've changed some words here and there.

Cool question
Correct - rock,paper, scissors
I remember Shayak got a huge round of applause for this particular question. I agree with Apoorv, this was the best question in genesis.
oh super!
when i read the q, i thought like some parity argument
eg. (coulomb's law) if A is positive, B is negative, C is positive.
A attracts B.
B attracts C.
C repels A...
but that aint a game, is it? :P
