Following a successful first tournament around this time last year, Mirgond and myself have teamed up again to bring to you the Second BakaBT Mahjong Tournament! Competitions and event-wise, the forum has been pretty silent since the end of the last Mahjong Tournament, and so we felt we should spice things up again!
Last year, we had over 100 participants and even then, we had to turn down people who didn't register in time! I hope we can achieve a similar turnout this year too!
Like last year, we will still be playing Japanese
Riichi Mahjong using the Tenhou platform. Most details are staying the same mainly because they worked well as they were.
Finally, I'm sure you guys remember we gave out bonus point prizes in the last competition. Well this year, we have some more interesting e-peen prizes for you to win! Not only are we giving away bonus points, but since we've now upgraded to SMF 2.0.1, we can now give away awards on the forum! If you do really well in the tournament, you could walk away with a ton of bonus points, a spanking new user title, your name mentioned in an announcement AND a shiny new forum e-peen award! Your e-peen will never have been bigger before!
Anyway, what are you waiting for?
Hop over there now!
P.S. Like last year,
Saki,
Akagi,
Tetsuya and
Ten - Tenna Toori no Kaidanji are now freeleech and will remain such until the end of the tournament!
Update: Both the
OVA and
manga for Mudazumo Naki Kaikaku are now freeleech too!
