Depending on your case ... If you got one of those fancy YMImports cases that are felt lined .. I\'d rather suggest not taping to case instead I think I would rather tape the tiles with scotch tape\'s magic tape that is strong but removable into blocks of four or eight.

Personally I have yet to have it bug me enough. I leave the season tiles in the box and pull the red fives before packing away .. in your average game the vast majority of tiles will have been sorted by your players ask for the red fives to be separated and then turn over the wall....keep the seasons and red fives and make sure they end up on the top of all the tiles (e.g. on the top tray if you have a YMImports 4 tray style box) so you can easily pull them.

That is quite common for totally blank white dragons outside Japan. About 1/3rd of the available sets seem to be the same as YMImports Image of which I have two sets white & black beatifully made but with all sets you have to remove any blanks and a set of non-red fives (or red fives) depending on what rules you are using.

Using tape is shortsighted and ridiculous. If you want to block off some tiles, use a baggy or some cling wrap. Or wrap paper around the tiles, and tape the paper. Don\'t use anything that\'s going to leave sticky residue on the tiles.
