 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).
