What type of mahjong do you play?

This  meetup is focused on Riichi mahjong, a ruleset originating in Japan.  We love American and Chinese mahjong rules, but this meetup is specifically for people looking to play Riichi.

Question 2

I don't know how to play mahjong, do you teach?

We're always happy to help teach new players!  If you let us know that you're a new player, we'll be ready with teaching supplies to help you get going

Question 3

I know how to play, but I've only played online.  Am I ready for this?

Accepted Answer

Don't worry!  We're more than happy to help you get started with "actual tiles" and this meetup is a friendly environment.  Everyone's happy to offer some tips or reminders as you need.

Question 4

I know how to play another ruleset, but I don't know how to play Riichi!  Should I come?

Accepted Answer

Please do!  If you already know how to play with another ruleset, you're 80% of the way to playing Riichi - and we're very happy to teach you the remainder.
