If anyone can find, or knows of a single player Mahjong game that you can buy/download that isn't solitaire or 'matching tiles', let me know heh.

If I'm not mistaken, there was something wrong with the way mahjong was played in both the anime and the manga which the author has admitted to be wrong.

If I remember correctly, that was a mistake in the art/drawing department, where Saki had 15 tiles in her hand (14 standing with one on top) when the maximum allowable should be 14 (13 standing, one on top). GONZO repeated the mistake in their animation, whether intentionally or not I don't know.
Havoc10K:
it was intentional, to make ppl who are actually into Mahjong rant and it still make em watch it XD
some versions have a veriaty of rules differences, scoring is different in british and chinese version, but the outcome is always the same in all versions tbh, l played MahJong a few years ago, if yo uwant to learn it properly get Shanghai Dynasty (old PC game) you can learn from there, it has a mix of Chinese and Japanese rules, you can play bot hat the same time or seperately, quickly you will notice there isn't that much of a difference, if l find that game l'll make a torrent of it, but try searching on isoHunt under "Shanghai Dynasty" or similar, newer versions should be avaible.
l say intentional cuz it would be stupid to make a mistake like that 2 times, l havent started watching yet.
who is doing the best TL/lowest screen taken job ?
Arveene:
So after a night of watching Saki, I'm all caught up. Can't wait to see how the tourney finishes. Koromo is just evil. This is making me want to learn how to play. >.>
@Havok10K: I'm following Underwater-Mahjong myself. Their release should fit your requirements nicely.
