===Future Membership===
===Future Membership===
As of May 2016, it is likely that [23] Belarus will become a new member organization, to be welcomed into the EMA at the next General Assembly. The EMA member page already talks about 20 member countries and lists a Belarusian as a board member, but according to statutes, only at a General Assembly can their membership be formalized.

As of September 2016, there are 417 active players (players with 2 or more riichi tournaments played within the last 3 years), an increase of 111 from July 2014 (306 members). There are other players within these countries, so the totals provided below are not ceilings of activity but rather a minimum baseline to count upwards from.
As of January 2017, there are 437 active players (players with 2 or more riichi tournaments played within the last 3 years), an increase of 111 from July 2014 (306 members). There are other players within these countries, so the totals provided below are not ceilings of activity but rather a minimum baseline to count upwards from. Player counts can sometimes dip due to the seasonal nature of the data.

The EMA has started to release historical data, that can be found on their website [[http://mahjong-europe.org/ranking/Country/Stats_AllPlayers.html]].


==Rulesets==
==Rulesets==
{{main|EMA rules}}
{{main|EMA rules}}
EMA currently uses two rulesets; one for Japanese Mahjong and another for Chinese Mahjong. For Chinese Mahjong, EMA uses the MCR ruleset that is regulated by a Chinese authority and used in the Chinese Mahjong World Championship. For Japanese Mahjong, EMA has [[EMA Riichi Competition Rules|their own Riichi ruleset]] that is based on the World Riichi Championship rules, updated in 2015. The four differences from the WRC rules are: double/triple ron allowed, no [[kiriage mangan]], unclaimed bets are taken by the winner, and more lax rules for call priority and timing. These rules take effect in April 2016.

The previous rules were loosely based on Dutch and Danish customs. Notable features included the lack of [[kuitan]], the inclusion of [[kuikae]] (2008) and its removal (2012), the use of [[Dora#Akadora|aka dora]] and [[Rule variations#Ryanhan shibari|ryanhan shibari]].
