Summary


This article is a stub. You can help Universal Paperclips Wiki by expanding it.

By using tournaments you spend your ops (operations) to gain a varying amount of "Yomi" you can use to buy "Bank" upgrades or occasionally there will be a project that costs "yomi"

The tournaments are based on "The Prisoners Dilemma" with the outcome rewards being generated randomly at the start of the tournament. While the "Random" strategy adds a little uncertainty, the general performance of each strategy can be predicted. The player can choose which strategy to back at any point before the tournament results are displayed. The tournament cost is 1000 ops per strategy, and the number of rounds is the square of the number of strategies, so the potential "yomi" per "op" increases in proportion to the number of strategies learned. In the late game the tournament costs and rewards can be doubled, and 20,000 a yomi bonus is awarded if the selected strategy earns most yomi, with 15,000 and 10,000 yomi bonuses for the second and third place strategies.
