I’m not that bad but I’m also not that good
I know the rough shapes of scoring enough to get by in almost all situations that don’t involve very close leads, I just have to give a slightly wider margin than someone who’s memorised the precise scoring would.
May likes playing Mahjong and selectively screenshots their high scores when none of us would know what counts as high or not.

too lazy to teambuild
Explaining what’s so funny about these screenshots is difficult.

i think they would just give up instantly
The correct decision would be the password game.
(It wasn’t out yet I think.)
Okay, so thirteen orphans is easy. It’s the equivalent of shooting the moon in hearts. It’s when you get precisely the worst possible hand and it’s worth a fuckton of points. This person called thirteen orphans on me and absolutely destroyed me, so I only had 800 points left.
Now. One of the core mechanics of riichi mahjong requires you to bet 1000 points to vastly improve your scoring potential on an almost-winning hand. You cannot riichi if you have less than 1000 points. This is very funny already.
If you get a hand that’s almost-winning on the first draw, that’s quite rare and is called double riichi. I’ve gotten it like maybe two or three times before. And here I just got the opportunity to double riichi… but couldn’t, because I got super destroyed beforehand.
