 The latest MahjongNews poll was not the most inspiring: 'Mahjong is played best with plastic / bamboo tiles'. So, not many visitors of MahjongNews filled it in. In the English edition, 20 visitors voted for plastic tiles and 13 for bamboo tiles; in the Dutch edition, these figures were 12 (plastic) and 4 (bamboo). Editor Martin Rep compares the two kinds of mahjong tiles with the old vinyl records of the Beatles with the new ones, which are on sale today. |

 Game players often like to discuss the 'luck vs. skill' issue. Some players prefer games with little or no luck, while some players feel that games without a healthy dose of luck are too 'dry' and boring for them. In a contribution to MahjongNews.Com, mahjong scholar Alan Kwan is going to explore deeper than the surface and discuss in fine details what is really meant by 'skill' and 'luck. Some of the issues apply to gaming in general, not just to mahjong alone.
