Background

I have been playing Mahjongg solitaire for some time and have recently made some Mahjongg tiles - fascinated by the physical tiles as objects themselves and what can be done with them (besides playing games!) Now though I have received a nice set of tiles as a gift and I have started to learn the proper 4-player game. I want to teach nerds like myself at the Hackspace (and The Dice Cup) so that I have plenty of people to play and learn with.

Mahjongg Basics

Mahjongg is similar to the card game of Rummy where each player tries to make high scoring sets from their 13 tiles. There are numerous regional rules and the set of rules I want to follow is the World Series of Mahjong Rules.
