== Rule Introduction ==
Only uses {{#mjt:159m}} of [[manzu]] tiles, while all of [[pinzu]], [[souzu]] and [[honor]] tiles are used (including red fives {{#mjt:0m0p0s}}). 112 tiles in total.
There are 112 tiles, 28 types in total. All [[pinzu]], [[souzu]], and [[honor]]s are used; only {{#mjt:159m}} of [[manzu]] are used.


{{#mjt:159m4z}} are gari {{kana|ガリ}} (similar to [[Dora#Nukidora|nukidora]]). 20 rinshan tiles in total.
{{#mjt:159m4z}} are gari {{kana|ガリ}}; gari tiles function identically to [[Sanma|nukidora]] in [[sanma]]. There are 20 rinshan tiles in total:
* They can be called and set aside to count as 1 dora. After the call, one tile is drawn from the dead wall; winning with the tile scores [[rinshan]].
* They can be used in the hand or discarded, but won't count as points.


A valid winning hand must include at least one of any regular yakus (identical to regular riichi mahjong yakus). A hand cannot win with only special yakus.
===Scoring===
A valid winning hand must include at least one regular [[yaku]]; it cannot win with just special yaku. The list of "regular yaku" is identical to the standard riichi mahjong yaku.


Instead of calculating with [[fu]] and [[han]], the score is only counted with points.

All valid winning hands obtain 2 points by default (listed as '''base point''' / '''banban''' {{kana|バンバン}}).

(1 pt) '''Gari''' {{kana|ガリ}}: Add one point for each nukidora ({{#mjt:159m4z}}). For {{#mjt:0m}} it is also a red dora, so it actually worths 2 points.
(1 pt) '''Gari''' {{kana|ガリ}}: Add one point for each tile called for ''gari'' and set aside like nukidora ({{#mjt:159m4z}}). {{#mjt:0m}} is also a red dora, so it is worth 2 points.

* Dora for manzu part is a bit weird. When indicator is {{#mjt:1m}}, dora is {{#mjt:9m}}; when indicator is {{#mjt:9m}}, dora is {{#mjt:1m}}; however when indicator is {{#mjt:5m}}, none of the tiles is dora. <ref group="note">In general, to determine dora for manzu tiles, there're two different ways in use. One is <code>1m → 5m → 9m → 1m</code>; the other is <code>1m → 9m → 1m</code> while <code>5m → 5m</code>.</ref>
* Dora for manzu:
* Gari tiles can be used in hand, and also can be discarded, but can only get Gari's point when it is claimed as a nukidora.
** A 1m indicator points to 9m; a 9m indicator points to 1m.
* Set is still acquirable with some gari tiles used in hand. They're not required to be all claimed as nukidora.
** When 5m is the indicator, no tile is considered dora.<ref group="note">Outside of tenhou, there are two separate rulesets in use. One is <code>1m → 5m → 9m → 1m</code>; the other is <code>1m → 9m → 1m</code> while <code>5m → 5m</code>.</ref>
* [[Riichi]] values 1 point. Riichi bet is also 1 point.
* [[Riichi]] is worth 1 point. The riichi bet is also 1 point.
* A single round ends when there's no tile left before dora indicators.
* A single hand ends when there's no tile left before dora indicators.
* Noten penalty of [[ryuukyoku]] is 20 points.
* The noten penalty of [[ryuukyoku]] is 20 points.
* Gari can be claimed even in last turn.
* Gari can be claimed even in last turn.
* [[Rinshan Kaihou]] is available with rinshan tiles drawn from Gari.
* [[Yakuman]] yaku cannot stack with other regular non-yakuman yaku as usual, though they can still stack with toutenkou-specified special yakus. Each yakuman is worth 20 points.
* Crow / Karasu requires no any gari tiles both existing in hand, in discards and used as nukidoras.
* [[Yakuman]] yakus cannot stack with other regular non-yakuman yakus as usual, though they can still stack with toutenkou-specified special yakus. Each yakuman yaku values 20 points.
