Please read 2-3 sites before playing and even then try the singleplayer games first.
Playing without knowing what you do is not only frustrating for yourself but also for your opponents, a player that left because he couldn't ron for his no Yaku hand or because someone ron'd his discard just kills the whole fun for everyone.

Usually, a game lasts around 30 minutes, so please, if you're not going to stay until the end, respect the other players and don't join a new game.

Also keep in mind that Mahjong is more a game of "not losing" than straightforward winning.
Furthermore you play with 3 other people and luck plays a big part in it, so dont expect to win more than 1 out 4 games, especially not as a beginner.

If you read some of the linked sites and still have questions feel free to ask.

The only thing you need to look at in :
>http://www.gamedesign.jp/flash/mahjong/mahjong_e.html
and the basic rule.

You'll learn the rest after being frutrated that the game won't let you call ron since you have no yaku.

I don't think I missed that point. I was just making fun of you for using thinly-veiled actions. Now, back to /v/, please.

Basic guide to Mahjong:

1. Call everything
2. Laugh at the reactions of players expecting a good, fun game.
