Finman here, what my luck

Goddomot, stop waiting for Doras you dick.

Hey any of you guys signing up?
Just saw this just now when I went over to bakabt.

Hey guys, what would you deal here? I thought it was a pretty difficult decision to make. Fold? Fight?

I dealt the 2 sou and dealt into the dealer's mangan hand ;_;

>>6172530
I signed up.

>>6174425

Captcha killed my picture.

>>6174432
I would have gotten rid of the 7 man first, but there's nothing there to suggest the 2 sou would be that useful either. Maybe hope to get a 3 sou and a dora?

>>6174432
2s was definitely what I would have discarded as well. Don't forget that Mahjong is also about luck, the "best" choices often end up being the worst.

>>6174425
Yep, 2 sou is the obvious choice. You just got unlucky.

>>6174620
>>6174643
What?
2s should be a fucking safe tile, definitely throw out the 7man first. It is so early in the game and if you play into the dealer hand, so what? If dealer doesnt have any dora it is a shitty yakuhai hand.

>>6171543
huh. yakuhai, dora 1(2600) vs honitsu, double east, dora 3(24000)

>>6174432
Why so many 2sou answers in this thread?
Between having to deal a tile close to a dora and not close to a dora potentially against two open tenpai hands, why deal the 2sou?
Even if two players discarded the tile previously, the dealer obviously changed his hand after those were dealt, making that tile viable.
And seeing how he was going for a fast hand, and dealing nothing but pin and man tiles beforehand make it more probable that he was waiting on sou tiles.
The dora being the 3sou also makes this more likely that he would be going for this in the beginning.
In addition, the dealing of the 7sou(from his hand?) marks that he could have solidified his wait(especially for hon itsu hands) to something like a 2/5 wait upon drawing a 3sou in he only had a 4sou or 7sou waiting to be matched up with something.

what a terrible game.
You guys sure have fun calling everything right?

Learn to play.
Every other hand is either yakuhai pon pon or tanyao chi chi chi.

Bump for some 4P.

>Implying /jp/ plays 4P

Bump.

Bump again.

i'll queue for ari red fast, full or half round.
Take it or leave it.

>>6192609
i do, getting owned in the dan room

I just got my second ever dan room daisangen yesterday and bumped back to 3rd dan today, I used to be fourth at one point, I'll be back eventually!
pic related, average 4 dans not afraiding of anything, although I think the guy I ronned just did it on purpose to troll the fuck out of the retarded who got パオed

>>6192846
you paid? i can't for the life of me get a yakuman

>>6192877
I've gotten yakumans before I paid too. In the dan room no less.

I have also been playing for over two years and play with real tiles too...so that might have something to do with it.

Do people that pay actually have better luck?

Need one more for Ari Red 4P.

Two more now.

>>6192914
Some people say that, some don't. I've paid for over 6 months and played unpaid for a year and a half. Sometimes you go though great luck streaks while unpaid (I skirted 5dan while being unpaid) and sometimes you just do terrible while being paid (went to two dan from 4).

Seriously it is just magical sand, anyone blaming a game of luck on greedy corporations is just a bad loser. You win some you lose some, even playing the most safest mahjong you can, sometimes you deal into baimans....shit happens man, take it in stride and requeue.

So, I've been playing for about half a year now...

What kind of training regiment do I need to undertake to master the Rinshan Kaihou? Cause winning with Tsumo is fun and all but I would really like to fuck everyone from behind...

>>6193108
First you must become a lesbian.

Second you must get rinshan kaihou.

Goodluck.

>>6193160
Actually, it's the reverse. You must pick a hand/yaku you like and go for it every time you feasibly can, and you slowly become a lesbian the more you get that hand (in other words, don't try for any yakuman. )

It took me three months with seven pairs, but it's definitely worth it.

>>6193186
I did that too, I aimed for tanyaos and yakuhai every time, but I didn't become a lesbian, I became a faggot.

>>6192894
so what's a good way to practice score counting? or do you carry a score sheet around everywhere you go when you play with real tiles?
i kinda want to transition to real life mahjong evantually but there's alot of stuff the computer does automatically that i haven't managed to learn yet
any in depth guide for inperson mahjong? like basic tile etiquette when you pon/chi etc, how the heck you first deal the tiles, etc the works
i've never actually found a proper guide for it, most people just assume you already know what to do

>>6193387
I found a guide for that bullshit (starting the game, setting it up, how to roll the dice/choose seats) If I have it on this computer (I don't think I do) I'll upload it tomorrow and put it in this thread. For score counting memorizing mangen, haneman, baiman etc is easy and dealer is just 1.5x the score. For less then 5han I just fucking round, fuck that Fu shit, 1han is 1000, 2han is 2000, 3 is 4000 (To not encourage yakuhai/tanyao only), 4 and 5 are 5000.

I memorized all the hands and their respective han value...I guess if you didn't you need to carry a score sheet with you.

basic tile control is just when you pon, chi, kan know how to turn the tiles in respect to who you called them from, where to put them, where to draw (STOP DRAWING FROM THE DEADWALL ITS SEPARATED FOR A REASON) and don't make stupid anime sounds (overly dramatic riichi, ざわ。。。ざわ。。。, etc)

Anyway need to sleep, class in 6 hours. If the thread is alive I'll try and find that pdf.

>>6192063

>>6193463
Is there a guide for how to teach your friends to play without having them think you're a weaboo faggot?

>>6174240
Tako-tan doujin? Sauce please.

>>6193789

Correct me if I'm wrong but I think that was actually a panel from the manga...

The cleft she is talking about is in sock for the sandal.

>>6193820
Wow then. Thanks for the info.

Can someone explain a tenhou feature that I didn't see in the documentation?
At the beginning of a round, I was dealer and had a starting hand that looked like a good candidate for a kokushi, and a button I didn't see before showed up where the riichi/ron buttons normally showed up, and I clicked it and the round ended.

>>6193766
I thought mah jongg was something women played back in the 1920s.

>>6193889
"九種九牌 (full ver is 九種么九牌倒牌 - Kyuushu yaochuuhai touhai) - if a player has nine or more different terminal/honors in his initial hand, he can call a draw using this."

sage

>>6193970

>>6193463
that would be much appreciated
i have no problem with the yakus and han value, it's the fu/han score count that i get lost on, just can't plan my hand out while calculating score at the same time
for basic tile control, pon/chi/kan, i mean do you discard first when you make the call then take his tile, or does the order not matter at all?

>>6194204
>it's the fu/han score count that i get lost on

You don't need to worry about that.

Basically, think that with 1 or 2 han you'll get 1000/2000 points most of the time if your hand is open and without any kans. With 3 hans you'll get around 5000, sometimes mangan. Then 4-5 han is mangan, 6-7 han is haneman, 8-10 is baiman, 11-12 is sanbaiman and 13+ yakuman.

>>6194237
yea but wouldn't fu/han calculation be required in real life mahjong? i'm assuming people just take their time calculating score after a tsumo/ron or just refer to a fu/han score chart

Fu isn't hard at all really.

You just have to remember that a pon of middle tiles is 2 fu, you multiply by 2 if it's closed, by 2 again if it's made of terminals/honors and by 4 if it's a kan. Then you have an extra 2 if you wait for a single tile, an extra 10 if you ron with a closed hand or if your hand is open and only worth 20 fu.

It's very useful to know if you already have a mangan with 4 han (or even 3, although that's not nearly as common) so you can avoid to riichi for very little benefit.

>>6194254
i guess i'm just not used to calculating it often enough

>>6194276
Don't worry, it because natural very fast, most hands below mangan have a fu of 20, 30, 40 or 50 anyway, and 20 fu is very easy to detect (pinfu). So there are roughly 3 possible values for a hand and it quickly becomes evident which one is the right one.

>>6194286
oh i have one last question, do you do the fu x han manually or do you remember the score chart by heart? kinda deciding which one to remember, wondering what other players do

Anyone still playing. Going to the room now.

How do I play this game?

Bump.

>>6194912
Let's play tile matching game.

Seriously, four sets of three matching tiles and a two pair. Sometimes you can get away with same suit three in a row but it all depends whether you hit a hand-points requirement (which means, at worst, you have a triple of the non-suit tiles). There are fancy hands but you will never likely see them manifest in your hand. Your opponent will score them flawlessly. If you can pick up a tile an opponent is dropping, a moon rune pop-up will appear on your side and the piece will be indicated. You and anyone else who is eligible to collect the piece have 0-10+4 seconds to respond.

Make sure you remember which set of moon runes is "Mahjong;" you don't want to make the mistake of "would have won the round but accidentally hit 'decline discard pick-up' by accident."
