How we check things
- Set specs come from the seller's or maker's own listing. We record the date we checked and link the source on every set page. We have not hands-on tested these sets, and we say so where it matters.
- Prices are the listed price on the date shown. They change, sometimes daily.
- Local listings are added only after we have read the teacher's or venue's own website. Each city page shows the date it was checked.
- Rules follow standard National Mah Jongg League play. House rules vary, and we point that out.

What we do not do
We do not reproduce the annual card. Its hands belong to the National Mah Jongg League, and you should buy your own copy. We are not affiliated with the League or with any set maker.
How we make money
Some links to sets and accessories are affiliate links. If you buy through one, the store may pay us a commission at no extra cost to you. That never changes what we list or how we rate a set: a set's readiness verdict comes only from its published tile counts. Local listings are free and are not paid placements.
