EMA, eli European Mahjong Organization suunnittelee muuttavansa heidän virallisia Riichi-sääntöjä vuoden 2016 alusta lähtien. Nämä sääntömuutokset ovat virallisten jäsenmaiden äänestyksen alla 14.12.2015 asti. Tämän jälkeen äänestetyistä säännöistä julkaistaan virallistettu versio. Jos on jotain ehdotuksia säännöistä tai kommentteja, niitä voi lähettää osoitteeseen: mahjongfinland@gmail.com
Sääntömuutoksia on alustavasti seuraavanlaisesti:
“The EMA riichi rule committe have revised the EMA riichi rules in order to avoid ambiguities and comply more closely with current Japanese riichi rules and the World Riichi Championship rules.
The committee asks the board to formally approve the revised rules.
Please send your formal vote (and any comments) by December 14.
If you agree I suggest the rules enter into effect by January 1st, with a trial period until March 1, in which period tournament organisers can choose whether they will be using the 2012 or the new rules.
The main changes since the 2012 edition are listed here:
Red fives have been removed
Tanyao (All Simples) can be an open hand
Renho (Blessing of Man) is a mangan, not a yakuman
Dai suushii (Big Four Winds) is a yakuman, not a double yakuman
A hand with 13+ fan is scored as a sanbaiman, not a yakuman
The 3 second timing rule is removed
Swap-calling is not allowed
Temporary furiten ends when the player draws or claims a tile
Five counters implies two yaku: the rule is removed
Abortive draws are not allowed
Nagashi Mangan is not allowed
Uma is changed to 15,000/5,000/-5,000/-15,000
Chombo penalty in a tournament is 20,000 points deduction after uma
Penalty rules are slightly more lenient in some casesDifferences to World Championship Rules 2015
Multiple winners are allowed
4-30 is not rounded to mangan payment
Timing rules differ; EMA: pung takes predence over chow
Riichi bets at game end go to the winner”
