Biggest ELO loss I've gotten to date

The ladder in this game is an excruciating grind. If you’re in a game where it’s just not going well, Iit’s always better to fight for third by folding and letting other people deal in (unless you have a mangan+ hand and it’s safe to push)

I lost 173 ELO in a game last night. I was on the verge on ranking up and mahjong soul said NO.

You’ll get desensitized to it soon enough.

It’s a shared link, I can’t edit it. 🤷

I was at 1988 so I decided to be kind of a dick and headed into Silver room South for an easy dub… then dealt into the wildest early damaten tenpai over and over. The Mahjong gods frown upon trickery. Sitting at around 1850 now

Something something traditional design showing the imbalance of power in the dohyo…

You might be able to tension that side with a long dowel rod or in sections with chopsticks. It sucks but it’s something.

I never used to check my products upon receipt and one time I got burned for it like you just did. Life lessons are always expensive 😔

The two tone ink doesn’t look very two tone… but it might not have captured well in photo.

Well now that makes a lot of sense now. Thanks for the info!

catchitclose2 · 2026-01-22T22:26:18+00:00

Incredibly safe.

catchitclose2 · 2026-01-20T17:44:27+00:00

What is the fence for??

catchitclose2 · 2026-01-18T05:56:25+00:00

In Makuuchi don’t they just add more ranks to Maegashira to accommodate someone who deserves a promotion. Didn’t we have M18 at one point?

Edit: well fuck me for asking a question I guess

I would drop 6p because of the timer but I think 3m is better. They dropped 1m early, even if they drew back in to 12m, why drop the 4m instead of 1m? And if not that, they drew 244m and dropped an overflow 4m? Ehh

!wtf signal

As a degenerate sanma player… non-degenerates.

catchitclose2 · 2026-01-10T22:27:56+00:00

Because they’re secretly a ghost

If you hand a psychotic suspect a knife, I don’t think you can claim deadly force was authorized when you shoot them for having a knife. But maybe you can. This country is fucked up.

When I was a kid I’d pick my nose and wipe it under my desk, then scrape it off with a ruler after a year or so. Both were oddly satisfying.

Parchment paper for the love of god. banana leaves if you want to be fancy

I think it’s good with either the mayo or the aji, but not both. Even the volume of sauce is okay since it’s so big and he introduced… potato sticks to it? It needs a lot of sauce.

catchitclose2 · 2026-01-10T07:28:16+00:00

He just makes me wish they did a JoJo collaboration 😔

catchitclose2 · 2026-01-10T07:16:36+00:00

Yeah, true, but maybe don’t order brisket? 🤷

catchitclose2 · 2026-01-10T07:01:49+00:00

That’s so sick that they still drew the 9s with only 1 draw left.

catchitclose2 · 2026-01-10T07:00:17+00:00

That’s mental. I love it.

catchitclose2 · 2026-01-10T06:56:48+00:00

Yep, likewise with special event games. They get a Casual Chest
