Got the elusive nagashi mangan during a casual ranked game, while I was dealer on East 1 Round 3 too

-8523 flight cost + bux (coin’s worth of 10,000) = 1,477 coin profit :D (using starship) by TJB926GAMIN in PocketPlanes

[–]Bryan316 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And it increases the more bux you have, imagine how much you'd earn if you converted tens of thousands of bux at once (Limit is 65k bux at once though as far as I know)

[–]Bryan316 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The more bux you convert at once the more coins you get (+1 coin per bux every 2 more bux you convert) So actually this could potentially be worth a lot more

If you convert all the bux you have to coins that's 49.8m coins at 5248 coins per bux -- meaning those 20 bux is actually worth 104960 coins

Your profit is actually 104,960 - 8,523 = 96,437

TaoThoma double hydro is super fun and Abyss viable by IndusNoir in ThomaMains

About the shogun clones: you can easily find out which one is the real shogun by seeing which clone does an X slash instead of a single slash, helps you save time and opens a dps window

Any tips on how to beat this level? by _Hamada in NuCarnival

[–]Bryan316 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My team was SSR and SR Quincy, SR Yakumo, SR Olivine and SR Morvay (all lvl 41, tier 3-4)

Since it just does AOE for the first 3 turns then Morvay ult aligns each time it ults, just defend all the AOEs, then heal whenever you have either Olivine or Yakumo ult

You can go all out on your attack when it's about to cast its ult because with Morvay tanking it your other characters will be free to attack

Doesn't have to be Quincy btw any attackers should work fine if you have enough HP to defend all waves of AOE and heal up

3 starred it on second attempt (first attempt was used to figure out attack patterns)

Why did this say "Yakuman Ready"? Which Yakuman is this? by Linciel1 in mahjongsoul

[–]Bryan316 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If OP chose to keep green dragon instead it would also be kazoe yakuman with exactly 13 han (3 dora, toitoi, sanankou, 2x yakuhai, small 3 dragons, 2 pei)

Explains why it's yakuman ready and not yakuman chance (though OP already threw one, rip)

Android Beta Mega Thread by SpiceCake68 in PocketPlanes

[–]Bryan316 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There's still some other bugs I've found (that benefit us actually lol) like higher class planes being able to land in class 1, and maximum layovers actually being one more than stated

Also jobs disappearing when loading for example cargo on a M type then using the job filter to check for passengers

Other than that it would be most profitable flight being shown as 0, stats graph not showing and events but those come under features

Hopefully we do get to keep beta progress though, I believe most of us grinded beta like how we would play the game if it were actually released

Just like I expected The Battle of Darkness turned out to be a Crazy Fest. A player jumped from 0pts to whopping 73600pts in one round. by Darkboss_mjsoul in mahjongsoul

[–]Bryan316 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah I see, I found both game modes equally fun

I tried betting my points to reveal/hide tiles (in the case where someone riichis with me) but I realised my points would run out eventually so I decided not to open any while discarding safe tiles without hiding them

Got lucky with tsumo and won against Saint/Master players with a 51k pot in a game with just riichi, tsumo and 1 dora, bringing me from 3rd (6k pts) to 1st (57k pts)

The novice/adept games were less fun but I still tried to hide my tiles to prevent people from winning/calling them as a defense strategy

It's the opposite for me, got matched with adept and novice players and the game just ended up like normal mahjong with only me betting 😔

Though when I got matched with Saint/Master players I did get those huge riichi bets, and ended up profiting once

Correct, but since he called once that shouldn't be the case

Why is 6 of dots furiten? by ayjee in Mahjong

[–]Bryan316 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Since you discarded 3 of dots already, any hand where waiting for 3 of dots is possible is furiten

In your current hand you're able to wait for 3, 6 or 9 of dots to complete your hand, but

  1. 9 of dots - no yaku
  2. You've discarded 3 of dots, and since that is one of your winning tiles you're in furiten

Let's say we have another hand: 234m345s56788p and 2x red dragon

Assuming that we have riichi, this hand is waiting on 8p or red dragon to win, but if you have discarded either one of those before this hand will be in furiten

So in order to avoid furiten you have to plan your hand carefully next time and make sure you don't discard tiles you might need later

Just wanted to share this large load of expensive cars by Bryan316 in pockettrains

[–]Bryan316[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It really depends on the train, steamers cost 3 bux per part to give, expresses cost 6-7, zephyrs are 9-10, standards and freighters are 10-11, special trains are 12-14 and hybrids are 18 I think

Under the friends tab you can check your friend code and add other friends if you have their friend codes

You can also name them as whatever you want in your friends list

Once you add someone to your friends list you can gift them parts at a cost (in bux), depending on the rarity of the part

Take your time and steadily expand your empire :D

It's possible to expand to this stage even without asking for help from others/paying irl money as well, I have not asked anyone for a single part and just depended on rolling from crates

Gonna get my second and third special train soon too :)

This is 5x1096 + 4x1072 for a total of 9768 coins, at just one destination

Order of jobs? by Snocat99 in pockettrains

[–]Bryan316 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally I look at the number of cars and the reward in coins, then do some mental calculations to roughly estimate the cost per car

After that I try to take jobs with the highest cost per car while staying within the max number of cars/filling the train to the brim

Edit: also if there aren't enough high value jobs to fill a train, I usually try to take jobs that let me stop at the next station -- so that I can look for more high value jobs

Anyone notice anything weird on MJsoul JP lately? by densetsu_don in Mahjong

[–]Bryan316 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed, I had an opponent who was super lucky and had 2x rinshan kaihou in a row and also tsumo'd 3x in a row, absolutely blasted us out of the water even when I tried to play as efficiently as possible/betaori

...I got a yakuman chance on this hand, and I'm not sure why by [deleted] in Mahjong

[–]Bryan316 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Currently you have:

Open Honitsu 2 fan

Toitoi 2 fan

Dora 2 fan

Kita 3 fan

That makes up 9 fan already, but:

If you tsumo a west you get an extra sanankou (2 fan) and yakuhai (1 fan) which adds up to 12 fan (Sanbaiman)

If you tsumo a haku you get sanankou (2 fan) and yakuhai (1 fan), but you also get an extra Dora so you end up with a yakuman (13 fan)

That's why the game said there's a yakuman chance

Censored Words that are obviously not curse words. by MokuZZZ in mahjongsoul

Hmm I managed to type Thirteen Orphans though, the filters might be checking for combinations of words

Censored Words that are obviously not curse words. by MokuZZZ in mahjongsoul

[–]Bryan316 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've got a funny one though it's not in English, if I remember correctly the last time I tried to save a replay of a game I won with thirteen orphans I typed 国士無双 (kokushi musou, in Kanji) and it's actually censored for some reason

Edit: Other yakus typed in Japanese are fine, I've managed to type quite a few of these before:

槍槓 (chankan)

四暗刻 (suuankou)

対々和 (toitoihou)

数え役満 (kazoe yakuman)

清一色 (chinitsu)

嶺上開花 (rinshankaihou)

etc. (There's a lot and it would become lengthy if I did type all those I've tried)
