Last night in Arlington, Texas
Many thanks to my friend, Greg Duff, who posted these pictures from last night\'s meeting of the South Arlington Gamers. Our game group meets weekly at a Borders Book Store and will soon celebrate its 3rd Anniversary!
A tight shot of the middle of the table detailing the game components - playing surface, Take Set, seat wind indicator and round wind indicator.
My lovely playing companions: Jean Keller and her daughters Naomi and Rebekah!
Final scores: Jean - 35700, Naomi - 29600, Rebekah - 18500, and Michael - 16300.
I did not win a single hand! (ouch)

Cool wind indicator! I assume you\'ve made it yourself?

You must have miscounted or something: that\'s 100100 points altogether.
Well, from the looks of it, at least you didn\'t deal into any dealer mangans or anything.I did not win a single hand! (ouch)

Re:Last night in Arlington, Texas
Mind if I ask what tile set that is? It looks nice!
Re:Last night in Arlington, Texas
I would bet my money on Take set, since they are toffee-backs, no notch, or the things "holding" the back, and one of the 4pins has a flaw of no hole drilled in the centre of one of the flowers (I have that same flaw in my Take set).Monadology wrote:Mind if I ask what tile set that is?

Good pics! And can I be the first to wish you a happy anniversary (in advance)? :)Gamegrunt wrote:Many thanks to my friend, Greg Duff, who posted these pictures from last night\'s meeting of the South Arlington Gamers.

My mother belongs to a hobby club with the same initials - a local group of senior female painters who call themselves the Suffolk Art Group... or the "saggy ladies"!
Do/did you play any other games?
Watch out for the Keller Gang, folks. They sound dangerous! :silly:My lovely playing companions: Jean Keller and her daughters Naomi and Rebekah!

Better luck next time, Gg.

The game group plays a lot of euro games, so-called Ameri-trash games, classics and some wargames as well. Here is a link to my (current) collection...Barticle wrote:Good pics!

Re:Last night in Arlington, Texas
Very impressive. Perhaps if mahjong had a cool name like "Killer Bunnies and the Quest for the Magic Carrot" it would have a bigger following in the West. ;)Gamegrunt wrote:The game group plays a lot of euro games, so-called Ameri-trash games, classics and some wargames as well.
