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)

Re: Mahjong at the movies?

Just saw this post. Evidently this role-playing game (with good mahjong name!) will follow Yakuza and FFXIV in having a mahjong minigame.

It releases in Europe and America tomorrow.

Re: My hand of the week

I have a very dim memory of that from the anime.

Probably this hand from the manga: https://livedoor.blogimg.jp/zohnam/imgs ... 2d0428.png

Very nice to get Junchan without calling AND stack it with both San Shoku and Iipeikou. Just missing Pinfu with the middle wait here.
