this is just last month
My old account is in the 90s with two games. New one isn't ranked yet, though. Too busy grinding in L0.
>>14652419
Even ignoring that, it's a meaningless list. 60% of the top 30 haven't even played 10 games.
>>14652437
That's right. If you want to know how well you're doing just look at your first place percentage when you're at least 100 games in.

I really want this tournament to happen.
>>14652655
What tournament?
>win two cheap hands (both under 3000 points)
>keep building up bigger hands to try to catch up to kamicha and tomiya
>either forced to keep playing defense
>kamicha is finally oya E4
>proceeds to win three times in a row with two oya haneman back to back
>game ends with me back at 25000, second place
I feel like I didn't do shit, but I'll take it.
>>14652662
A lot of players on /jp/ and maybe /a/
A tournament can be made
>>14652715
It's better than not doing shit and coming in third because someone kept dealing into everyone but you.
>>14652792
/jp/ would probably lose against /a/. Who's your best player anyway? UNIVERSE?
>>14652816
>UNIVERSE?
Yeah, I wish. Try one of the 5 or 6 dans that play here. They've most likely played for much longer than I have and have put in a lot more effort in L0, so I'd say they're better.
Also, why do you think /a/ would win? I don't think many good players go there.
>>14652852
>why do you think /a/ would win?
Those 5 or 6 dans you mentioned are from /a/.
>>14652855
How do you even distinguish where they come from anyway? The seems too massive to tell.
>>14652860
I've been observing them since the active days of tanoshii threads on /a/ so I'm certain they're mostly from /a/. Except xkime maybe.
>>14652792
how can you divide the 2?
I mean, I'm mostly on /a/ every time, but I come here for the mahjong thread only, for which side shold I play?
>>14652868
You don't have to, it would be an all vx all thing.
>>14652868
Go with what your heart tells you.
>>14652869
That's not fun.
Would you pursuit riichi here?
>>14652869
well a mahjong tourney between all the board may be cool, with a Saki style 5 player Sempo-Taisho with 2 east sud each
Still who should play other than /a/ and /jp/? we need at least 4 team
>>14652888
No. Haku dora 1 is enough since you're not last and you will be last dealer.
>>14652894
Just make 2 teams for each board.
>>14652894
I remember seeing a tread on /v/, and maybe mahjong, like chess is sport, so /sp/?
>>14652888
Yes
>>14652907
People from those boards probably have no idea how to play. It will be a battle of busting the retards if they play. Not fun at all.
>>14652792
>>14652894
>>14652655
if we actually get it done, i demand a drawfag to do all the players Lesbians counterpart
>>14652914
Don't worry, we won't get shit done
>>14652903
>Haku dora 1 is enough
So you would push but stay dama? If you're going to discard dangerous tiles against a riichi, why not riichi as well?
>you will be last dealer
This isn't something you should ever really count on.
>>14652914
Let's not. Too much circlejerking around the players ended badly last time /a/ had a tournament.
>>14652914
Saki : autistic weebos edition
FKMT style would be fun too
>>14652919
Because if I pick up an extremely dangerous tile I can still fold.
And you know what you shouldn't really count on? Risky riichi with a cheap hand like that.
>>14652923
any link?
>>14652931
What would be extremely dangerous? The 2s already looks dangerous to me.
>And you know what you shouldn't really count on? Risky riichi with a cheap hand like that.
3 han on a ryanmen wait isn't terrible and you don't even know what you'll draw in your dealer turn. Tenpai on a good wait is a hell of a lot better to count on than some vague hope for clutch renchan.
Why not just do an individual match? What's the need to side with boards?I'll side with /a/ though.
>>14652933
I don't, it was a long time ago and I don't really feel like digging through the archives.
>>14652952
You have 2 of the 3s so it's not THE MOST dangerous. If you riichi, pick up a 2p or any red dora and deal in to someon what would you do? Complain here because you got "unlucky"? And I'm not saying you should count on getting renchan. Being last dealer means right at that moment you still have two more rounds, at least, to do something. 4th place has no more turn as dealer and that should limit the damage he can do.
I think your problem is you really want to get 1st place. Listen to my advice, avoiding 4th place is the essence of tenhou and you'd do well to stop thinking less about winning every match you play.
>>14652971
Forgot to mention, me myself would probably fold and hope shimocha do something stupid to escape 4th place. My answer was based on the assumption that you'd want to push and it's just a matter of declaring riichi or not.
>>14653000
I should have been more clear then, I wasn't dead-set on pushing there. Defending would have been a perfectly acceptable answer.
What time is best for you guys? I'm setting it for today 6AM JST/4 PM EST but I can always change it.
>>14653019
I don't think I can join that given that I live near Japan and waking up at 5 am for this isn't really worth it.
>>14653019
I will be out for dinner at that time
http://tenhou.net/0/?log=2016012222gm-0089-0000-9c9ee12c&tw=1
That east round was a cluster-fuck. Kamicha gets a lucky dealer baiman on the first hand, shimocha can't stop calling tiles, and I decide that first place is hopeless and go for toi-toi 3 hands in a row. I felt so bad for the toimen having to put up with us. L0 is just as despair inducing as I remember though.
>>14653025
>>14653029
I set it for 4 hours later if that helps. 10 AM JST/8 PM EST. If we don't get enough people I can set it for another day.

>>14653064

>>14653110
Mahjong isn't fun. And too few people play in 7447 to even have a tournament.
>>14653064

If you really want to do this you should probably give morr time than just a day to gather people to play.
>>14653114

Okay, final time is tomorrow, Saturday 10 AM JST/8 PM EST. And I figured if we wait too long people would lose interest or forget

Not in Tenhou.

>>14656881
I need to stop shitting up this thread when something spooks me. I suck too much to contribute to discussion too.
>>14656881
Superstition. It's considered an ill omen if all players discard the same wind, so the hand is aborted to prevent misfortune from befalling the players.
>>14656908
Practice that for a year and you won't suck anymore.
>>14656881
> not discarding a haku
>>14657066
Oh, I didn’t notice that it was a dora. Then I would discard North, too, if I didn’t know about that rule.
Can't believe they both went for the same hand and same wait.
This hand resulted in my ass dropping to second since on S3 toimen busted shimocha.

I fucking hate this game but I can't stop playing. I hate it with a passion I've never felt before. In the last 8 games with almost perfect tile efficiency I've only won like 4 hands while everyone else pulls hanemans from their asses.
Fuck mahjong. Fuck 2016. Fuck.
>>14657980
>with almost perfect tile efficiency

>>14657980
http://osamuko.com/playing-a-good-game-and-losing/
>Perfect tile efficiency
Sure thing mate.
>>14657980
Eight games of not winning sucks, but you can often go fifty or a hundred games with shitty results. It isn't unusual for even houou players to demote two or three times.
The important thing is to truly identify any mistakes and to ride out the randomness. As the article >>14658048 says, a lot of people who say they played a particular game perfectly and lost actually messed up somewhere.
>>14657980
Happy New Year, motherfucker!
Any good japanese blogs on riichi, tile efficiency, etc.? Untranslated of course
>>14658214
So, you can read Japanese, huh?
Just a final reminder that the /a/ and /jp/ tournament starts in approximately 5 and half hours at 10 JST/8 PM EST if anyone is interested. Rules are standard 4P with kuitan allowed, no red fives (to minimize the influence of luck). Final scores are calculated as a total of the 5 matches. NoNames/Guest IDs are not permitted in tournaments so you'll have to register an account if you haven't already. Hope to see you there.
http://tenhou.net/0/?C20695652
Should I play on Tenhou through a Japanese VPN so that I won't get the baka-gaijin random seed which gives you shitty flow?
>>14658340
>implying Japs get better seeding
Well, OK. Maybe they do...
How many different hand compositions are there for Ryuuiisou? I can't imagine it's that many considering you can only use 6 of the tiles
Do people really think that Tenhou is rigged against players with nonJapanese IPs?
What the fuck do I do with penchans? They're terrible and I want them out of my hand but it's poor efficiency since it lowers shanten.
>>14658526
Wait. Hope to draw a 4/6 or turn one of the tiles into a pair.
>>14658526
Wait for a middle tile then build around that while you discard your penchan wait if it's still possible for you to do that like in the early stages of the game. Penchan is not as bad as I thought it was at first. It does have the same number of waits as a shanpon wait assuming no tiles are in the discard pond.
>Dropped below R1600
Fuck this shit I got to tenpai exactly once and I ended up dealing in during my riichi.
>>14658526
I don't remember where I read it, maybe in Daina Chiba's book, but I read that a penchan has only a very slighter chance to be completed than an isolated 5. So don't hesitate too much over discarding them.
They have bad waits and forbid tanyao & pinfu. Also, if you don't have any tile nearby, always throw the inside tile first, the outside one is usually safer.
>>14658544
I don't consider shanpon as an efficient wait, but its plus is that it can easily evolve into ryanmen pinfu. Outside of unefficiency's unpredictability, does it have other benefits?
>>14658442
234 can be used as a sequence. 6s, 8s and hatsu have to be in a pair of a three of a kind. So you could have an iipeikou shape with 223344, 666 888 and a pair of hatsu, for example.
>>14658593
For suji traps. Beyond that I don't think there's any. It is a pretty hard wait to win, compared to the other types of waits except for tanki, although tanki has the surprise factor included with it.
>>14658608
Technically speaking you could have 222-333-444-234 and a pair of 6,8 or hatsu however unlikely it may be. Maybe I'll go put together every possible combination myself for fun later
>>14658593
>penchan has only a very slighter chance to be completed than an isolated 5
I tried to do the math on that myself once but gave up because I'm a big dum dum.
Fucking kusoge.
>>14658487
I hope not.
>>14658671
I don't think it was math based, rather a statistical observation.
I quickly did some approximate math and get a 9/8 ratio (1.125) in favor of the isolated 5. It comes from the fact that you have to draw 2 tiles, but you have 3 combinations with 3,4,6,7 that work.
>>14658775
Well, forget about that, it was a nonsense. The important fact is that you have 5 (not 3...) combinations of the tiles around 5 that make a full shuntsu.

So how does this work? You play 5 times and then you're done?
Here I am with Gogo, Doragan, and Waki. Again.
When do scores get tallied? I want to join but I'm busy with other shit. Can I hop in later tonight and still participate?
>>14659823
Scores are tallied on the go. After you play enough matches you'll see your rank in the lobby. That said, five hanchan will take a while, so I dunno if many people will keep playing to improve their rank once they finish their first five.
>>14659834
Wait so you can keep on playing for as long as you want? I think there should be a hardcap.
>>14659845
Playing more could also decrease your rank.
>>14659845
Yeah, it's the best five consecutive games, so you can keep playing. The only limit is that the tournament is only open for seven hours. That's a long-ass time, though.
Dammit, sorry I keep disconnecting.

I was about to rank everything manually but Tenhou's log for today seems to be corrupt. I'll try again in a few minutes.
Not even a mangan
5 games, and not even a mangan. In fact I don't think I got more than 2 han.
I hate this stupid game
>>14660284
so what we should do after completing 5 games?
The current ranking so far. Keep in mind it's 20 minutes behind because that's how often Tenhou refreshes, I'll update it a bit.

It's up to you if you want to play more games to try to increase your rank. Keep in mind it only counts your last five games.

ehi, I'm bk201 and i have 5 games 3 first 1 second and 1 third

It can only get worse
This ended up actually being quite fun. We should do it again sometime soon.

That's not fair guys.
Didn't play 5 games but I'm going to bed now. It's 5 o'clock in the morning here in eurofagland.

Heh, I was just about to say the same thing. 3 games will have to be enough for me. Would be cool if it could be hosted earlier next time.
>>14660452
This, I'm getting sleepy as fuck.
I've only got 2 games to go and it's fun so I'll continue
How the fuck do I stop the annoying music?
>>14660378
No? I'm spectating as NoName scum right now.
Should I extend the time for the eurofags?
>>14660547
Next time we have one we should probably make it last longer but for now I think we should just let it be
>>14660547
