Mahjong tournaments create a different game atmosphere than casual play or even rank grinding. Casual settings allow players to play the game at their leisure. Tournament play function on set schedules and limited numbers of games played. If casual settings may be compared to a classroom setting, then tournaments are the exam sessions.
