….
This website is a relaunched version of my original website (URL: www.MahJongBritishRules.com) which was first published in October 2008.
(It’s been replaced for a variety of technical reasons.)
It is based on the 3rd (2008) edition of the book “Mah-Jong (Know the Game)” by Gwyn Headley and Yvonne Seeley, which explains the British Mah-Jong Association (BMJA) rules.
The original website was endorsed by the authors, who have since advised me on the various clarifications to the rules which are included here.
Whilst I have endeavoured to make the explanation of the BMJA rules as clear as possible (and have consulted extensively with the authors), any misunderstandings that arise are entirely my responsibility.
