Mahjongg Tourney

Alright who's up for that Mahjongg Tournament?
I got prizes!


Winner gets 1st choice, 2nd place next choice, & 3rd place the remaining item:
- Certificate for clothing from Bastet's stall, enough for a few outfits
- A metal mug which grants you half-off all booze at my bar, made by Clé
- One of the two sets of mahjongg games that will be used during the Tourney, hand-made by yours truly ♥

I got no clue where we're hosting this thing - ask Kanin. Wherever it is is gonna be neutral ground, okay? Okay. No guns in the bar.

Anyway TOMORROW NIGHT! I'll teach anyone who wants to join but doesn't know how to play.

I'm not gonna participate, but at the end if the 1st place winner (most points across all games) wants to challenge me, the 3 winners & me can play a round and whoever can beats me in points gets free drinks on Opening Night.

[[OOC: See the OOC entry for more details & questions!]]

It's a game with tiles and you win by scoring the most points.

Hmm, sounds like fun but I don't know how to play.

[identity profile] inthecenterfold.livejournal.com 2008-11-21 04:28 pm (UTC)(link)
I think most games are easiest to learn on the fly through a practice game or two. You're basically trying to mix & match tiles to score points.

[identity profile] lemonshine.livejournal.com 2008-11-22 01:31 am (UTC)(link)
I could give it a shot. :) Think you could teach me how to play?

[identity profile] inthecenterfold.livejournal.com 2008-11-22 04:44 am (UTC)(link)
I will definitely do my best - know anyone else who'd want to learn early?

[identity profile] lemonshine.livejournal.com 2008-11-22 04:50 am (UTC)(link)
Oh I think I could coerce Silvan somebody. ^^

[identity profile] inthecenterfold.livejournal.com 2008-11-22 05:01 am (UTC)(link)
Any chance of getting 2 extras cuz frankly I think 4's easier to learn...

[identity profile] lemonshine.livejournal.com 2008-11-22 05:02 am (UTC)(link)
I think I could find someone... let me ask. :)

[identity profile] inthecenterfold.livejournal.com 2008-11-22 06:34 pm (UTC)(link)
No prob.

[identity profile] iniquiticity.livejournal.com 2008-11-20 05:54 pm (UTC)(link)
This sounds fun. How does one play?

[identity profile] inthecenterfold.livejournal.com 2008-11-21 02:51 pm (UTC)(link)
Well the gist of it is we pass around a bunch of tiles, "build walls" to shuffle em, and then try to mix & match to get the most points.

Ballrooms at the Mandalay Bay is HUGE. We can plays there.

[identity profile] inthecenterfold.livejournal.com 2008-11-21 02:51 pm (UTC)(link)
Sounds like a plan.

[identity profile] redrobinhood.livejournal.com 2008-11-20 08:04 pm (UTC)(link)
I have no idea what that is but sure, why the hell not. :)

[identity profile] inthecenterfold.livejournal.com 2008-11-21 02:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Never too late to learn something new, huh?

[identity profile] redrobinhood.livejournal.com 2008-11-21 05:26 pm (UTC)(link)
I dunno, I'm an old dog. But if there's prizes involved, I can learn to roll over.

[identity profile] inthecenterfold.livejournal.com 2008-11-21 05:56 pm (UTC)(link)
Prizes make every game better.

[identity profile] thewindslast.livejournal.com 2008-11-20 11:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Mahjongg? I love mahjongg! Count me in!

[identity profile] inthecenterfold.livejournal.com 2008-11-21 02:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Finally someone else who knows how to play!

[identity profile] thewindslast.livejournal.com 2008-11-22 02:09 am (UTC)(link)
Uh huh! I know all sorts of games. I'm better at pai sho though.

[identity profile] inthecenterfold.livejournal.com 2008-11-22 04:32 am (UTC)(link)
Don't know that one. Guess you'll have to teach me.

[identity profile] thewindslast.livejournal.com 2008-11-22 04:34 am (UTC)(link)
Sure, it's really fun! I'll have to make some pieces and a board... that sounds like my free time for a while, haha!

[identity profile] inthecenterfold.livejournal.com 2008-11-22 04:58 am (UTC)(link)
Well you don't HAVE to but if you want I can show you how I made the mahjongg sets.

[identity profile] thewindslast.livejournal.com 2008-11-22 05:03 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah! That'd be great!

Oh, my name's Arrow!

[identity profile] inthecenterfold.livejournal.com 2008-11-22 06:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Arrow, huh? Alright. Smoke, if you didn't know.

A few pages back, while everybody was still singing, if you remember that.

[identity profile] thewindslast.livejournal.com 2008-11-23 01:27 am (UTC)(link)
Nope, I didn't. Nice to meetcha, Smoke!

Oh, yeah! I can do that! Seems pretty easy.

[identity profile] inthecenterfold.livejournal.com 2008-11-23 03:10 am (UTC)(link)
If you want I can bring that knife for you to borrow?

[identity profile] thewindslast.livejournal.com 2008-11-23 03:12 am (UTC)(link)
Sure! Thanks a ton, Smoke!!

[identity profile] inthecenterfold.livejournal.com 2008-11-23 03:32 am (UTC)(link)
Not a problem!

[identity profile] pinkhairedchild.livejournal.com 2008-11-21 12:16 am (UTC)(link)
I wanna come, I love games!

[identity profile] inthecenterfold.livejournal.com 2008-11-21 02:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Awesome - so you're someone else I'd need to explain the rules to, huh?

[identity profile] esperienzadoro.livejournal.com 2008-11-21 02:28 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm not entirely sure, but I think I should be good at this game.

Count me in.

Is his handwriting neat enough that Smoke would think it's kinda girly? XD;;

[identity profile] inthecenterfold.livejournal.com 2008-11-21 02:57 pm (UTC)(link)
Don't recognize your handwriting - you new?

You're welcome to show up either way, tho~

LOL YES ENTIRELY

[identity profile] esperienzadoro.livejournal.com 2008-11-21 03:21 pm (UTC)(link)
I am. I'm called Aureo.

I think I will show up, thank you.

Then I apologize for this shameless flirt <3

[identity profile] inthecenterfold.livejournal.com 2008-11-21 03:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Aureo? Now there's a pretty name. ♥

Looks like I'm teaching a bunch of folks, so no worries.

Oh sorry, I'm Smoke by the way.

...XDDD

[identity profile] esperienzadoro.livejournal.com 2008-11-21 03:55 pm (UTC)(link)
It isn't my actual name, but thanks.

It seems familiar, so I hope the rules would come to me as I go. I'm afraid I haven't much to gamble on, though.

Funny thing is, even if Smoke could see the pictures, this conversation would still be happening

[identity profile] inthecenterfold.livejournal.com 2008-11-21 04:26 pm (UTC)(link)
Naw I know, since it's tough for anyone to remember stuff here, but I bet if you try hard enough you'll remember.

This thing's mainly a fundraiser to start my bar - so it'll just be a fee up front to enter and then playing until we get three winners at the end of the night.

<-- The pictures get worse ^^

[identity profile] esperienzadoro.livejournal.com 2008-11-21 04:41 pm (UTC)(link)
I hope it's only a matter of time, and maybe the right prompting.

I hope I can afford the fee, then. It's hard to work with no idea of the exchange rate.

I see that XD;;

[identity profile] inthecenterfold.livejournal.com 2008-11-21 04:46 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, what're ya good at? Any ideas so far? Maybe run around the marketplace and wait for somethin t jump out atcha.

Fee won't be a lot, honest. You got a bit when you woke up, right?

IT'S A TRAP!

[identity profile] esperienzadoro.livejournal.com 2008-11-22 02:01 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm not sure. In fact, I suspect that I am too young to be properly good at anything yet. But I believe they say need breeds invention...

I did receive some money - I'll come, and hopefully it would be enough.

No the trap is when they actually meet XD;;

[identity profile] inthecenterfold.livejournal.com 2008-11-22 06:49 pm (UTC)(link)
Awesome! See you then.
