It made me

How I did it:

• I picked a specific rule set to learn (Hong Kong is good for beginners)
• Played the practice tables at the Mahjong Time website until I kept winning
• Bought a mahjong set and studied the different types of tiles and hands - I plan to play with my bf next time he visits me with a two player variant.
• If you spend a week playing it every day, you will definitely pick it up! It is easy to get discouraged at first ("why can't I declare what I already have in my hand? why can I declare pung at any time, only declare chow when it's the turn of the person before me?!") - watching other people play helps a lot.
