It can depend on the implementation, if they programmed the AI to get smarter, or not. (Apparently this program has that capability)

Re: Discussion: East-Only (Tonpuusen) vs East-South (Hanchan

Do you consider a "standard" rule if in south round (only) the deal never passes after a draw?

Re: WWYD 2015-03-24

But if you are oya then you can play again if you win isn't it? Also you get more points. You will still want to make something to get toward first place, but possibly you can have the risk of possibly making even more points during next hand too.

Re: Mahjong Font

Metafonts are fonts for LaTeX, right? With files in .pfb .map .ftm .vf ? I have such a font (the same than in this topic, I guess, converted years ago). See the attached file. :) mahjong_font_latex.zip Metafonts are programs that, given various parameters (or none at all), generate the typeface in ...

Re: Mahjong Font

I was actually about to enter this forum to find a mahjong font, and then I found there is already one. However, I am looking for a METAFONT based font, not TrueType. Do you have any of that? I could also try to write it myself, although I am not very good at the artistics; I would easily know how t...

Re: Little reading test

As it turned out, I did it correctly. I also read the text in the triangle correctly. Even though in both cases they said I did it wrong, but they then gave correct answer and I realize my answer matches and is correct. It is really not so difficult!

Re: another gameplay question

B) Do you claim the 9-dot for toi-toi, discard either the 7-crak or 8-crak, and have a single wait of 3 tiles for the other. I don't know what is best but one idea is, make toi-toi and then trick opponent into believing you can make a half flush too even though you can't. Unfortunately, I do not kn...

Re: WWYD 2014-06-01

Does this game have a rule of a repetitive round in case of exhaustive draws during a south round (like Akagi DS has)? Also, are there any match scores or is a single game being played?

Re: Discussion: East-Only (Tonpuusen) vs East-South (Hanchan

I prefer East and South round. Not only, is even out the luck factor, but also, in East round, the dealer has a double wind, but in South round, someone else has, so you have both ways.

Re: World Riichi Championship 2014 - rules!

To make the position fairly you could have: One player throw dice, if 5 or 6 you try again until it is 1 to 4, meaning 1 東, 2 南, 3 西, 4 北. Next player throw dice, 1 or 2 meaning 東, 3 or 4 南, 5 or 6 西. It applies 北 if that one is already taken. Third player throw dice, where 1 and 3 and 5 means the w...

Re: abortive games/ draws

I have never had the situation with 4 players riichi, although I do like this rule. (I also don't know exactly what happens if the fourth one is no-ten riichi; someone partially explained but isn't entirely clear) I have had the all four same wind discarded on first turn a few times, and it is ALWAY...
