The only mahjong I've played was the one on Vista, but I wouldn't mind learning how to play it.

I have a small mahjong set, but like the others I have only played computerized mahjong games. Even then it was a solitaire version.

I have a group of friends who play riichi from time to time, we've also picked up on sannin riichi. I think most people here in the United States, in my experience, tend to either think Mahjong is a solitare game, or an old woman's game. However, I've had some German friends who are quite fond of the game.
