Re: Do you ever discard when declaring a win?

Hello and welcome. Completing a mahjong hand ends the game, so you do NOT discard. What variant are you learning? I've only heard of one single rule in the world where play continues (Sichuan Bloody Rules), but I've never found any clear and complete description of it. And even then, the winner stop...

Re: another mahjong book

I wouldn't recommend Scott's "ultimate" book, as I don't find it really informative and has a lot of useless text.
I also have his "A to Zhu", but haven't took time to read it.

Re: MCR round seat change

Woh! I was gonna say Mahjong Time's explanation is confusing and refer to the Green Book (official), but the GB is even worse! • After each hand , the winds rotate, but the players stay at the same place. The East player becomes North, South becomes East, W->S, N->E. (This is like other mahjong rule...

Re: Riichi Scoring Website / Android Camera App

https://www.reddit.com/r/Mahjong/comments/cicql2/automatic_riichi_mahjong_calculator/ The payments for any valid hand are calculated, even if the hand is yaku nashi. This is a "feature" that ended up being a "design choice". How the calculator works is that it first tries to assemble a valid hand. A...

Re: Zung Jung vs MCR

If by riverbed and seabed tiles you mean winning on the last tile from the wall and on the last discarded tile, then MCR have them.

Re: Need a Riichi Japanese rules guide

There's a video how-to guide on youtube, even if it might be a bit long:

Re: Zung Jung vs Hong Kong

Almost all mahjong rules have a very similar rulesets, the major difference being the scoring. Some have very distinctive features like dora or jokers; beside that, it's mostly fine-prints. Unfortunately, very few rules have an authoritative rulebook. Others, like Hong Kong, vary from one players' g...

I've updated the style. Spoilers are still KO. @or2az: The links are displayed correctly for me. Have you tried refreshing the page (Ctrl+F5)? What browser are you using ? I'm not sure why the forum doesn't display some images. It finds them when I access directly to the image URL, ... and then it s...

Re: RM.com site - problems reports

Thanks! The only thing I've noticed which is different is that the Reach Mahjong logo at the top now links back to the site's homepage, rather than the forum's main page. It's intentional, so I don't have to put back the links bar. :P I'll check how embedded images works, it seems a bit weird. I als...

Re: RM.com site - problems reports

I think it's all good now, or almost. - The spoiler tag doesn't work. :( Super hidden text. - I couldn't find how to change the forums' color on the main page, but it's not much of a problem. - No favicon? I don't remember if there was one. Please report if anything else looks odd or is missing. gre...
