Guobiao Majiang

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Guóbiāo Májiàng (simplified Chinese: 国标麻将, literally National Standard Mahjong) is a rule of Mahjong founded by All-China Sports Federation in July 1998.

Features in the rule

  • There are exactly 4 hands for each Prevailing Wind, because Game Wind always changes after each round of 4 hands. So one match consists of exactly 16 hands.
  • According to player's tiles, situation of hand's completion etc., points called "fan" (番) is given. Any player can declare winning of the hand only if he/she has 8 or more points with his/her hand's completion.
  • Winner of a hand receives points from the other 3 players according to this system:
    • If the winner completes the <var>x</var>-points hand with his/her draw of a tile, he/she receives (8+<var>x</var>) points from all the other 3 players.
    • If the winner completes the <var>x</var>-points hand with a tile discarded by another player, he/she receives (8+<var>x</var>) points from the player having discarded the tile, and 8 points from each of the other 2 players.
  • There are no restriction of the last tile of hand completion because of discarded tiles. (There are restrictions in some rule, e.g. Japanese one.)
  • Positions of seats are changed between first and last half; i.e. beginning of the third(West) Prevailing Wind.
  • With meld of closed quad (暗槓, angang), all 4 tiles are placed faced down in front of the player. (What tile they are is not revealed). They are revealed at the end of the hand.
