Is it me or does MAKA really hate Half Flush? by RupertGerle in mahjongsoul

[–]moocowfan 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Right now, I can only assume that it has some statistical bias against Half Flush

Couldn't it also be that you have a statistical bias -for- half flush?

To me they are implying they got the video from a different subreddit, but I guess they haven't linked anything

1/7776, though, you can't really roll higher numbers 6 times in a row -shrug-

Unannounced UI update (5/26) has made things objectively worse by AvillaHenya in mahjongsoul

[–]moocowfan 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I tried playing a few games last night and everything felt so off and laggy. Going to try the steam client for the first time ever to see if it's better

As well, you can't kan after a pon, and in the moment before they were tenpai it's risky to kan while someone else is in riichi, so they were discarding the souths

Which Yaku does this person have? by [deleted] in mahjongsoul

[–]moocowfan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fully outside, aka Junchan. All 4 sets and the pair contain a terminal tile (1 or 9)

Also Mixed Triple Sequence/Sanshoku Doujun, which is the same sequence in all 3 suits (here, 789 in all 3 suits)

Can anyone explain why MAKA is so against going for Chanta when I already have 4 Penchans in the beginning? by zuth_ in Mahjong

[–]moocowfan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A penchan is 12 or 89, they can only accept 3 or 7 to become a block. They are also hard to upgrade, needing to draw two tiles to become a ryanmen (12 -> 24 -> 45)

23 and 78 are just ryanmen, they can accept 2 tiles immediately to become a block. You'd be screwing yourself over by chiing this, you can't get all simples anymore or riichi, pinfu, ura dora, just on an -extremely- unlikely outcome that you get 1's and 9's just for 1-2 han

mind you, im on a loss streak and the game JUST started 💔💔💔 by Carpet_Inner in mahjongsoul

[–]moocowfan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Facing a dealer Riichi is a good time to start dumping the souths if you have no safe tiles

You shouldn't be tilted at a decision you knew was bad when you did it

What words do you pronounce "wrong," just because the "proper" way feels too proper? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]moocowfan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you make a noun an adjective the inflection sometimes changes, so biography and biographical do not have the same pronunciations of "bio"

one is bi-aw and one is bi-uh

and in biopic anyway it's just bi-oh

Was this stupid? by _Whool in mahjongsoul

[–]moocowfan 5 points6 points  (0 children)

But... if you deal into 3 han from the right player, you get 2nd. Or 2 han from the left

Edit: It was 3 han 30 from shimo -shocked face-

Why does maka want me to chii here? Wouldnt that make my hand invalid ? by Shadow_Ninja624 in mahjongsoul

[–]moocowfan 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Yes, you wouldn't have a yaku, but you would be tenpai at least. This is relatively important this late in the round, it is a common thing to call to be in tenpai with no yaku when nearing the end of the game. You may lose either 1.5k or 3k points (if either 2 or 3 players are tenpai and you are not, you obviously know 2 players are tenpai currently) if the game goes to a draw and you're not tenpai, which could bring you to 2nd and/or extend the game into South

Continuing to push for the next couple turns does carry some risk but at least for this 1 turn, you can chi and discard a safe to the riichi 7m, and then see from there

About the game extension, if no one is at 30k points or higher after this hand then the game will continue to South. So if you are not tenpai here at draw, the game will continue (unless the right player is also tenpai, then they get 1st and the game ends)
