MCR draconian environment is in the past PDF Print E-mail

Regarding the mentioned draconian environment at MCR tournaments I would say that lesson was learned back in 2007 where there was pretty much this same reaction after an MCR championship. We have come a long way since then; the regulations are much clearer, some penalties have been softened and a referee manual was published before the Riichi EC in 2008. A referee training course (focussing on MCR, but touching briefly on riichi differences) took place in 2009 and will again this year in connection with the WMC in Utrecht in August. EMA tournaments should be fair play and have clear rules. The rules are not meant to be exploited for own winning ("don't sue the principle"); they are made in order to have fair play at the tables. The EMA Riichi rules need a chapter on etiquette and handling irregularities. I am working on it. Please bear with me; it may take some time before it is ready. Meanwhile, I am happy about this discussion!
