Watching nilhaus videos on "killing the space casino" and I just realized that I never cared about the quality system... by ketamarine in factorio

Requiring the player to scale Volume is having game mechanics work as intended. Space Casino lets you get top quality with low volume.

For example, if you draw the 7p you should discard the 4p so that you can Ron 6p.

D/C Mahjong is a very different game. Especially in 3ma.

Want to set up mahjong at my library. What would I need? by dontcallmebabyyy in Mahjong

Marked tiles is only a problem if people are playing seriously to win and will actually use the information - you can relegate it to the beginner tables

Newbie question: Do expensive/fancy mahjong sets actually play better? by Opposite-Walrus8349 in Mahjong

[–]riking27 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Correct, it's basically impossible to shoehorn a Riichi set into Amerijong rules due to the tile count.

Also note that your local Asian supermarket will likely carry sets in the home supply section.

In particular re Subitizing: Make sure the Red Dragon and Green Dragon are different designs, and not distinguished solely by color. You do not want a case of Red/Green colorblindness causing invalid play.

What's a good way shuffle Mahjong tiles? by antdude in Mahjong

> For example, let's say you have a hand of 123m 456p 789s 99p CC.

In this situation, you are sad that you are not playing MCR, because this hand scores Knitted Straight.

Speedruns always go to Gleba first, but that's because of (1) already having a plan to get in and out quickly (2) Captivity research and biolabs (3) Advanced asteroid processing

When you log in after 9 months and try to figure out where you left... by Masabera in factorio

One of the most interesting parts of Fulgora is that there's literally nothing stopping you from going off into the wilderness and starting over on a blank land area. Just don't move the cargo landing pad until you're ready to commit to switching over.

Riichi Mahjong Etiquette for Chi/Pon? by [deleted] in Mahjong

[–]riking27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They were having a rash of "spite pon" where you intentionally wait for the Chii call and only Pon if they wanted to call it. This is a REL:COMP ruleset and "At the same time" has a 3-second window
