Magnetic BMJA rules – Playing the game (1) Magnetic Invitation

This is one of a series of 12 playing aids explaining the BMJA rules for playing Mah-Jong – as found in “Mah-Jong (Know the Game) by Gwyn Headley and Yvonne Seeley and in my website Mahjong-BritishRules.com. ….. ….. ….. ….. Players find them very useful to have to hand while playing the game. ….. ….. The rules at your fingertips! ….. ….. ….. ….. Besides sticking to your fridge, the cards will stick to one another – back to back †. ….. ….. ….. ….. They were designed with this in mind so that the “pairs” cover the following topics: (1) Preparing to play (2) Playing the game (3) Playing the game (contd) + the goulash, (4) Scoring (5) Special hands (6) Settling up. ….. ….. † though you may not get a perfect alignment ….. ….. ….. ….. The 12 cards are: ….. ….. Preparing to play ….. ….. Breaking into one wall ….. ….. Playing the game (1) ….. ….. Playing the game (2) ….. ….. Playing the game (3) ….. ….. The goulash ….. ….. Calculating the basic score ….. ….. Doubling the basic score ….. ….. Special hands (1) ….. ….. Special hands (2) ….. ….. Settling up (1) ….. ….. Settling up (2). ….. ….. ….. ….. If you decide that you want an odd number of these magnetic cards you may wish to have a back to stick to one of them. … So I have created another card showing the Symbolic Square (a picture of all the tiles in the Mah-Jong set used to illustrate the rules).
