Mahjong Life and Living

In the very last month of 2015, I managed to pull a +100 before the year ended.  The game was as follows: E 1-0: Shimocha - mangan tsumo E 2-0: I tsumo'd baiman. E 3-0: Shimocha tsumo (4000) E 4-0: Ryuukyoku: Kamicha and myself tenpai. S 1-0: Shimocha ron on Kamicha (1000) S 2-0: I tsumo'd for 4000.

This is one of my signature accomplishments on the Tenhou platform.  As far as I know, this is a record unmatched by many of my peers.  My next highest scores below +100 is a pair of +99's.  To score such a game, a player must amass a point total of 89,500 or greater.  This is due to Tenhou's oka and uma settings.  The winner of a game gets +20 oka followed by +20 uma.
