Re: Overview of current mahjong video-games

Another English version of a D3 game released yesterday for the Switch 2 console. Riichi Mahjong is a translated edition of SIMPLE Series for Nintendo Switch 2 Vol.1 THE Mahjong from last December. Looks pretty basic but also pretty cheap - currently 8ukp or 9usd including 10% discount. https://www....

Re: My hand of the week

Thanks, I just 'ammered a couple!

Now I want to use the animated hammer emoji we used to use many moons ago on another forum (that sadly fell to spam).

From what I've read, spambots are very sophisticated now. Like they can pass any registration question that can be answered by Google search.

Re: My hand of the week

Thanks Steve. It's just ridiculous... They're spamming a forum that's virtually dead and driving away any potential new users, plus they're posting mainly in Cyrillic text on an English-language forum. Having cleared them last night, I came home from work today to another fifteen new threads. Usuall...

Re: Where Winds Meet (with mahjong minigame)

The Mahjong Maestro disciples are named One Bam, One Character and One Dot of course.

I spotted these fine fellows in the underground Ghostlight Market area, but can I trust them?

Re: Where Winds Meet (with mahjong minigame)

After completing Chapter 1 the mahjong playspot at the inn becomes unavailable but you can access it again via a somewhat unconventional route which starts by interacting with the sword beside the tree east of Blissful Retreat's wine tower. Chapter 2 can commence when your character rank is at least...

Where Winds Meet (with mahjong minigame)

Today I've been investigating Where Winds Meet . It sounds like a mahjong game but it's actually a free-to-play open-world action RPG with a Chinese fantasy Wuxia setting (like Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon) so there's lots of fighting, heroic leaps and running up tall trees, but also lots of dunge...

Re: Here's the situation.....

Alternatively (depending on how many tiles are left and how dangerous opponents look) just pass any wins, hold out for an exhaustive draw with the Tenpai hand and receive up to 3000 pts.

Re: Here's the situation.....

Generally video-games will always give you the freedom to pursue any of the options that are technically possible, regardless of whether you'd be skipping a win, becoming Furiten, continuing with a hand that has little potential to add value (Yaku or Dora) or even reducing your hand value. Here's an...

Re: My hand of the week

In a mahjong anime this would be your superpower. :) That's some nice added value for a Honitsu hand.

Re: Here's the situation.....

It is an interesting scenario to have several distinct options after the first row of discards. Personally I've always gone for half-flushes too often, even "Bakahon" (fool's Honitsu) with no added value. A similar term could be applied to Toi-Toi (the "Pon Palace" I guess) as it can be hard to comp...

Re: Mahjong at the movies?

Thanks Steve. My username is green too to match my cat. :mrgreen:

Just deleted and banned my first two!

I see Tom as moderator emeritus, like a retired professor who retains their title!

Re: Mahjong at the movies?

Brilliant work - there was so much. Merci beaucoup! :)

I'd be happy to help out but obviously need permissions to delete posts.

Also perhaps there is new improved forum code to deter bots? (in the perpetual war of measures versus countermeasures)
