Ahyoheek Society

Ahyoheek (heek) is a game similar to Rock Paper Scissors, in which each player chooses one of three symbols in order to "beat" the other players' chosen symbols. Ahyoheek tables can be found in any D'ni Neighborhood. Up to 5 players can participate in Ahyoheek at once.

Basic Rules:

Pen beats Book.

Book beats Beetle.

Beetle beats Pen.

Unlike your typical Rock Paper Scissors game, multiple rounds determine a game winner of Ahyoheek.

Once the first symbol of a round has been chosen (by any player), each other player has 5 seconds to choose a symbol for that round. When all symbols have been chosen or the 5 second clock runs out, each player's choice is revealed and a winner is determined.

Object of the Game:

To win a game of Ahyoheek, a player must win three rounds of one symbol.

Each player's position has six lights, two of each color, visible to all players. The colors correspond with the symbols. When a player wins a round, a light the same color as the symbol used to win that round will be lit.

If Player A has lit two red lights and wins another round using Pen, Player A wins the game. (Assuming there isn't a tie.)

Multiplayer Rules:

In one on one play, it's easy to tell who wins each round. In multiplayer games it's not always so easy. Here are a couple of examples to help illustrate what beats what.

Player A, B, C and D sit down for a game of 'heek:

Player Choices	Round Winner(s)	Explanation
Round 1
Player A: Pen Player B: Book Player C: Book Player D: Pen	Player A and Player D	Each Pen beats both Books.
Round 2
Player A: Book Player B: Beetle Player C: Pen Player D: Beetle	Player A	Even though Pen beats Book, Book beats the majority, the two Beetles.
Round 3 (player D went for a soda)
Player A: Pen Player B: Beetle Player C: Beetle Player D:	Player B and Player C	Each Beetle beats the Pen.

Rank & Points:

All new D'ni explorers begin as Rank 1 players with 100 points.

Rank Breakdown
Rank	Point Range	Rank	Point Range
0 1 2 3 4	0 001 - 200 201 - 400 401 - 700 701 - 1100	5 6 7 8 9	1101 - 1600 1601 - 2200 2201 - 2900 2901 - 3700 3701 - 4600

Each time a player sits down at an Ahyoheek table with another player, he/she wagers one(1) point for each Rank he/she holds.

• If a player stands-up from the table before a game is over, he/she loses the points wagered.
• If a player loses the game, he/she loses the points wagered.
• If a player wins the game, he/she gains the points wagered by each other player.
