One of the things that bring back sweet memories whenever I go back to Sungai Lembing is mahjong. My sister and I were exposed to the games (no, we don’t call that gambling, OK?) when we were very young. In fact, we mastered the games before we were even 10 years old, thanks to aunts and cousins who were ever-ready to coach us!
My favourite is definitely the 3-ka mahjong (a.k.a. three-player mahjong) because it is a very simple and straight-forward game. When we were in Sungai Lembing 2 days ago, J and I literally played the 3-ka mahjong day and night
And guess what?! My record-breaking time to win a game was 18 seconds. Who can beat that?! I mean, OK, the two of us played what should be a three-player game but then again, who cares?

Another type of my favourite mahjong is gin rummy (how to play gin rummy?) but it takes a lot longer to finish a gin rummy game.

I know, it was even more ridiculous that both of us played what was meant for 4 players but if the mahjong tiles are all over the mahjong table, you don’t just ignore them, do you?! ![]()

Mahjong looks like a complicated game, but I’m glad you have so much fun with it
Mahjong is cool~! Love the game…it’s almost like forensic science + profiling…don’t really know how to explain it so I’ll just leave it at that…
love it! love it! drool……..
With the advancement of broadband services, you can now always play Mahjong with anyone at anytime. Just go to http://www.viwawa.com, register an account and you can play Mahjong, Dai Dee, Chess and many more. Have fun at US ya. =)
ColourfulWorld, it’s no fun playing online Mahjong…you need to feel the tiles, hear the clacking sounds and the table banging when you’ve successfully Mahjong-ed…musn’t forget the packet of groundnuts by your side as well…:P
I want I want….but I dunno how to play *embarassed*…how? you teach??
Right on, Plastron! It is definitely different to feel the tiles in your hands compared to playing mahjong online. I can arrange my tiles according to colours, or if I’m not in the mood, I can just leave them all over the table
