Feels so good.

Now, what should I buy first?

>>14786914
Well, you get that gold in chips, not actual gold. So there's not much to buy except official mode plays. Or event plays. The one at the bottom gives free items for the 1st, 2nd, and 4th plays of 4 player and 3 player.

Partial excuse on the 2-dan. But both 3-dan?

Aside from the 7-kyuu, they're practially playing a joukyuu game amongst themselves, at ippan rates. That's both a waste of time and sucks to the one who gets 4th (assuming the 7-kyuu survives).

I found out I perform better if I take breaks inbetween games when playing ranked. I used to jump all over the place but now my rank and R is steadily rising.

>>14792107
I'll try that. I usually play 4-5 games in a row and by the end of the day my R is usually back where it started, or lower.

>>14793331
Sorry anon, but judging from that game I think your tile efficiency needs work.

>>14793367
I know, I need some concrete examples

>>14793376
>E1-1
You should discard 6p ASAP instead of 8p because you're looking for a pair, and 6p is both the dora indicator and more dangerous. This backfired when you drew 8p later. Then in the middle of betaori you kanned for no reason.

>E1-2
You broke up 13s by discarding the bird instead of 1m. The dragon tiles are also all more valuable to keep before 1m.

Later you discarded 4p from 3445p instead of the worthless 9m from 679m. 3445p is an extremely valuable shape because it's 34+45 and you didn't have a pair, so 23456p would all have improved your hand.

>E1-3
In general stop kanning unless you're near tenpai and losing badly because kans are risky. Your early 3p kan ruined a 13p + 333p shape.

etc.

>>14793400
Are you the guy who was critiquing games several threads ago?

>>14793418
I think there's someone else that does that a lot more often, so probably not. It's possible.

Mostly I respond to the "what would you do" stuff.

Do you guys have tips for identifying ukeire/winning tiles when chinitsu? I've tried training with the bamboo game but I'm still too slow for the timer of Tenhou

>>14793376
Concrete? Try abstract. Unless you happen to be defending, consider not breaking up "connected tiles" so early.

By "connected tiles", I'm talking about something like 7-8-9. Don't break things up like this - unless you have good reason to do so.

>>14793491
There aren't really any tips or tricks to it, you just need to be able to recognise complex patterns. Keep playing the bamboo game until you get the hang of it.

>>14793491
To speed up the process, locate potential pairs. From there, you may be able to string various groups of three tiles fairly quickly.

Why the fuck would someone go for open tanyao if they're in last by more than 20k points? I was 2k away from first in S4, and then they drag me down to 3rd with their shitty useless hand that serves absolutely no purpose after I called riichi. Fuck him, and fuck this game.

>>14793795
They probably just accepted the loss and wanted to move on.

Because he's a loser, who wanted the suffering to end.

>>14793814
>>14793821
They should just betaori and not get in the way of the big girls.

>>14794363
Do you betaori when you're in fourth with no chance of comeback in orasu? You probably do the same thing. I know it sucks to get a potential first stolen out from under you by a pointless hand, but that's going to happen a lot, so you might as well get used to it.

>>14794392
I know, but every time it happens I can feel my blood pressure spike.

>>14794392
I think I would rather wait for my chance, hoping for renchan, and/or try to inflate hands with random kans hoping that one player will lose enough points to end up 4th.

>>14794392
there is always a chance in mahjong, you only need a yakuman

Can you tell if someone mostly plays mahjong online? I've heard pros talk about it being obvious once you play them in real life but they never explain further.

>>14796288
I supposed the most obvious way is how they handle tiles.

>>14796298
That was what I thought of as well, probably combined with them not playing like novices it would be obvious

I'm guessing the style of play, since tenhou makes last place avoidance so central while real-life games have a much bigger incentive to be first.

You've got to remember the pon palace doesn't work very much outside of 7447.

Well, just dealt into a yakuman for the first time.

Bastard got into tenpai for daisangen by turn 6.

>>14806408
It's probably that high from crutching on Yakuhai and Toitoi.

I'm gonna try just keeping my hand closed unless opening it gives me a decent path to win.

I'm trying to teach mahjong to my pal, is there a way for me to play with him and 2 AI?

I like Jap Mahjong.

>>14810111
The secret to get lucky is to lose. You need to deal into hands until you touch the deep sands of hell, after that you will start winning.

Sorry if this is a noob question but what does a grey tile when in the replay of Tenhou?

>>14810363
It shows tsumogiri (discarding the drawn tile). It can be disabled.

>>14809826
Yep. That is the condition called "muh tenpai", where the joy of attaining tenpai may end up ignoring any sort of defensive considerations.

>>14810643
For example, "Red dragon (中)", "Green dragon (发)", and "White dragon (白)" in the traditional mahjong tiles embody Chinese people's simple desires for "progress", "getting rich", and "promotion". In our new version of Max Mahjong, they are replaced by "Safari", "White house", and "Statue of Liberty", to pay a tribute to the American spirits of adventure, equality, and freedom.

>>14811803
I feel that if I ever learned how to play defensively I wouldn't have nearly as much fun. Making your hand without having to worry about what everyone else is doing also seems like the easier option.

>>14810631
I just don't understand why.

>>14811833
So you think it's fun dealing into hands when your opponents reach tenpai before you?

Hyper-offensive styles where you don't give a fuck should be reserved for 7447. In actual ranked games, you can't assume you'll always reach tenpai first.

>>14811833
Don't complain when you lose.

anon please what the fuck

Do you usually discard a dealt pair of non seat/round wind if something like chiitoitsu or toitoi isn't an option?

>>14812394
They can form the pair for pinfu, so I'd say hang onto them unless you already have a pair in mind.

>>14812394
Depends if tanyao or a dora pair are an option. If not, no because they're usually good for defense.

>>14812394
Depends on the rest of your hand. If you have a couple dora already, just sit on it as you are trying to riichi quickly. They also help later for defense.

>>14812416
>>14812418
>>14812425
Thanks. It always just feels like a block in my hand and there's rarely a reason to pon for the meld if toi toi isn't available, except maybe for dora.

>>14812450
Or maybe honitsu

>>14812450
There's chanta, as well.

>>14812462
aww yeah. They're more valuable then they first seem thrn

>>14812462
Am I the only one that hates chanta? You keep having to deal dangerous tiles the whole time for a total of 1 han the instant you open. Unless you can get a bunch of dora it always feels like a weak hand for the effort.

>>14812481
live 9 sou like a man

>>14812469
I would use it only if my hand is really fast or in total sefety. otherwise I would just betaori: after all chanta is difficoult and his value is just 1 han
