haha, wow what a difference. Shows what I knew ^^;...
Guess you got shafted :/. unfortunate.

Look back through the rest of the thread to see that, the tile you\'ve mentioned came with the 1.5 set.

..errr at least thats what y\'all have seemed to have said...
seems it was also a bonus offer from shops like Gamers and Animate. Not naturally coming with the set.

Had this happen to me in an IRL game yesterday.

East 3-0 went to a draw, and the dealer wasn\'t in Tempai.
Thus, East 4 started from its first bonus round ^^;.

Along the same vein, I\'d drop the 9S.
If you do get a Straight here, the 8M\'s make a nice pair.

In aiming for Sanshoku, I\'d probably try to stretch it to tanyao as well.

if google translate isn\'t up to snuff, consider rikai-chan. an add-on for firefox. Turn it on and mouse over kanji to reveal their kana and an english translation.

Personally, I\'ve taken to revealing it before discard for a closed Kan and revealing it after discard for open or added Kan.

This way, closed hands are favored, as the rest of the rule set tends to do.
