Mahjong Prime Directive

-
At least, this is my prime directive:

Play as much as you want, or as little as you want.

Well, that is: if time allows you to anyways.  I will elaborate on this later.  This thought just needs to sink in.

In case you're wondering, yes, I am very much influenced by Star Trek.

Banned from Mahjong Soul Discord

-
It is unfortunate, but I did my part lightening up the place in there.  However, that was not enough.  Instead, I ended up with multiple infractions that render this ban.  After all, it is their house, their rules: Am I guilty of these infractions?  Yes.   Was it my intention to trigger this ban?  No. For the record, this is the list of infractions: June 14, 2020: Case ID: 257 Posting a borderline NSFW image of Hisa. July 4, 2020: Case ID: 276 Political criticism, where I said, "Trump sucks". July 11, 2020: Case ID: 288 and 289 Unsolicited harrassment, where I pinged one mod who I perceived as a friend at the time. July 30, 2020: Case ID: 1074 Unlisted and unrecollected warning.  This must be the first ban warning. October 22, 2022: Case ID: 1177 Inadvertent off-topic discussion regarding Starcraft with a few others. December 7, 2022: Case ID: 1238 Typed a basic German sentence, but failed to provide an English translation. December 12, 2022: Case ID: 1239 Posted a Discord

Majsoul Influential Player Mark

-

I saw this mark on one player before, but I did not know what it was.  Now I do.  Majsoul staff have the privilege of marking players with a "verification mark".  This mark comes in the form of a gold paw as shown here next to my username: To simply put, my general activity was notice.  My activity in the Majsoul discord as well as frequent play went into account.  My participation in the first Catfood Bowl came to play; and finally, the work done on the Majsoul Tournament Guide. This along with helping a friend work through a mahjong project today helped made my day.  My next task is to rank back up to Master 1 and potentially qualify for the next Catfood Bowl tournament announced earlier today. Addendum the next day After an extra day, I had to think about this post and exposing a method to acquiring the same cat paw.  Something tells me: it was supposed to be secret, but I was not instructed to do so.  I could delete the text.  Instead, I shall give some enco

My First "Houou" Game: Review 1

-

Technically, I was playing in tokujou.  However, why were these three 7dans entering my game at the same time?  Either way, I was glad to get this opportunity to get a sample of an " actual houou " game.  I have faced games with three R2000's before; but usually, they were 6dans.  So, this felt much different. The game can be viewed here:  http://tenhou.net/0/?log=2019060708gm-0029-0000-15d18a22&tw=2 Given this rare opportunity, I made sure to enjoy this game as much as possible.  The primary goal was to survive.  If I was able to win, great, but I did not.  I took my third and lived. Now, unlike my Twitter post , I am looking to cover this game more indepth to see what I could learn from it.  As a note, comments with each respective image is below the image - not above. With 1-shanten by turn three, it was a good opportunity to get some kind of jump start on them. But it took this long to get to tenpai at all, and this was a natural pon.  Otherwi
