Scoring System

The current version of the Mahjong-O-Matic scores points according to the official Chinese International. This scoring system gives points to 81 different combination of tiles. However, the Mahjong-O-Matic does not remember flowers and discarded tiles, so the following points gained by drawing such tiles will not be present:

Hand Number	Scoring Name	Points

#13	"Flower Tiles"	1
#27	"Last Tile"	4
#40	"Last Tile Draw"	8
#41	"Last Tile Claim"	8
#42	"Out With Replacement Tile"	8
#43	"Robbing The Kong"	8
