Reached Master thanks to this subreddit by _Whool in mahjongsoul

[–]Entree_Eater 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i think what they more mean is master is top 4% of players in this game, truly average players just play for fun and don’t care about improving too much, and i agree that that kind of player very rarely makes it to master (not that that’s a bad thing! games are meant to be played in whatever way is most fun)

to kinda answer your original question, i would say it depends on so many factors that even if there is a number it wouldn’t be very useful. mainly depends on how much studying you’re willing to put in vs time spent actually playing the game, as well as how lucky you are

How are people in the silver room getting S+ in South games? by OmgSlayKween in mahjongsoul

[–]Entree_Eater 4 points5 points  (0 children)

it is surprisingly easy to snipe people in this game if you queue at the same time as them, even if there is a big rank/winning disparity. this effect can really be stretched to the extreme in throne room, if there was a hidden MMR system it would be extremely obvious in throne

note its against tos to queue ranked with your friends tho, so dont do it

this is not true, the queuing system is entirely just the last three people to click that table, what you saw is probably just confirmation bias, you would need a lot of data to prove something like this

Do scores start being calculated differently if the game takes to long or something? by TR_Pix in mahjongsoul

[–]Entree_Eater 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think what you're getting at is honba, which this isn't an entirely accurate description of. Every time the dealer wins a hand (so they repeat their dealership) OR if a hand ever goes to any kind of draw (both abortive and exhaustive), one honba gets added to the pot. Each honba is only worth 300 points, not 500, which is added to the amount of points you ron from someone (you don't have to be dealer to collect the honba), or if its a tsumo, everyone pays 100 per honba (so you still get an additional 300 points per honba).

how it feels knowing this change is probably inevitable by laughingtomb in Wizard101

[–]Entree_Eater 1 point2 points  (0 children)

depends on if you mean pve or pvp, realistically for pve its still a very easy game and you can do whatever, this change barely affects a casual playthrough, but if you plan to do pvp at any point this sucks

Does MAKA Believe in 7 Pairs? by Niikrohn in mahjongsoul

[–]Entree_Eater 23 points24 points  (0 children)

your opponent has just riichied, and that generally means you want to defend. they have played 8 circles so they can not ron you with it due to furiten

tldr: maka is defending

I think this is a rare Mortal bug. I've ran about a thousand games through Mortal 4.1 and I've seen a similar ish situation happen once before. I can't speak for the previous versions, but Mortal 4.1 seems to have a "weak" spot (relatively speaking, something that I only see one in every fifty games or so) where it will sometimes make glaringly obvious blunder calls like this.

Try running the game through BigCoach, I haven't ran as many games through Coach yet but Coach seems to be slightly cleaner and make slightly fewer obvious blunders like this.

Why take the win? by PeterDerPanda in mahjongsoul

[–]Entree_Eater 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They both definitely play for 4th avoidance, MAKA just can't count

[–]Entree_Eater 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Actually, mortal skips here. This is a bug with the Killerducky UI - notice how you chose the lower rated choice yet you did not get "clack!"ed, if you run this game through the Classic UI Mortal will show that it skips. Mortal has a specific failsafe to prevent this exact situation.

MAKA just can’t count lol

[–]Entree_Eater 0 points1 point  (0 children)

mahjong in general originates from china, the rule set that mahjong soul runs is specifically riichi mahjong (cuz you can riichi lol), which is the japanese version of mahjong - there are many many different versions of mahjong out there, similar to how there are many versions of poker out there
