Buu Mahjong utilize a different scoring system, derived from Aaru-Shi-Aaru Mahjong, the predecessor of modern Riichi Mahjong. The main difference between scoring is the lack of the Bazoro [[List of terminology translations|場ゾロ]], which refers to the internal 2 Han automatically factored into every Riichi Mahjong hand. As Buu Mahjong uses considerably less points than regular Mahjong, re-denomination of the point sticks is necessary. Standard point sticks are used, but their values are cut down to a tenth, meaning that 100 points = 10, 1000 = 100, and etc.<ref name="ryanpeikou" /><br />
