Hey /jp/

I was playing mahjong today and guess what happened?

Some bitch named Nora decided to play by her own rules!

Here is what happened
:
"I'm Atomic," Nora announced.

"Huh?" asked Esther.

"You know, Atomic. Seven pairs, no jokers or flowers. Fifty cents if I make it."

"Anybody know what she's talking about?" Esther asked, looking at the card to no avail.

Wesley did. "Some folks call it Bionic. Either way, we don't play that way. We play straight NMJL rules."

Nora was incredulous. "Everybody plays Atomic. My mother played Atomic. It's the way the game is played." Wesley showed her the official rulebook.

"It's not in here. It's a table rule. If you want to use an Atomic rule, the whole table has to agree."

Nora was flabbergasted. A vote was taken. Esther thought it sounded like fun. I said I didn't like deviating from the rules. Wesley said he was flexible, but told Nora, "The vote isn't unanimously in favor. We aren't playing Atomic."

Nora was clearly flustered and upset. But she calmed down... eventually.

We play atomic every Wednesday afternoon at 1:00 PM so we can laugh at non-women non-old non-jews do stuff like work for a living.

FAQ 7i. Mah-Jongg Cards... and "Kards"

I am occasionally asked where one can obtain a deck of MJ cards so the game can be played while traveling (without having to lug a heavy set of tiles around). The NMJL calls such cards "kards," with a K -- this is to differentiate from "The NMJL Card" which is simply a list of hands.

I think that's a good idea, so I use that nomenclature here.

Yes, because in speech 'kard' and 'card' sound different.

chiitoitsu? what do you mean? I am not good with korean or oriental languages. We only play NMJL rules, I have the rulebook here, and it is published by the world authority on mah-jongg.

Do you have an official rulebook? Does your Association send you new cards every year with new winning hands? I love playing NMJL rules, because you can look at the card and figure out what tiles to pass to the person on your right. This makes for an interesting game.

Once we tried playing with Japanese rules and got confused because the rules did not mention making pungs or kongs with jokers.
