Okay so I play mahjong with my family right? Well up until now we've played only a bastardized simpler version of the game where you can win with any kind of mixed random hand of melds without having to declare ready. But my mom has like a 99 game winning streak!

Yesterday I introduced the new rules (which is simply the standard rules of the game just without the byzantine scoring system) and yet she still keeps on freakin' winning gah!

GArgh!

Your lucky your mom plays games with you that hold even just alittle interest for you.

Also, don't post in all caps. [Smile]

If you ever beat her, really beat her, not just her letting you win, it will feel really good. Just don't be a sore winner, k?

Heh, this thread was the last one posted in and thus showed up on the active forums page-I knew who posted this thread before I even clicked.

It's always possible that your mom is just really good at mahjong.

She does appear to be good and doesn't seem to just be beginners luck anymore, I was 3 turns away from winning in the last game as well!

I should stop picking Hell-waits. (waiting on unlikely tiles to be drawn/discarded).

And im not being a sore loser, I want to play more and often, family mahjong is the only time I can actually "think" on my hands online mahjong is way too fast pace to be that fun.
