Calculations

Calculation of End-Score Points

  • Oka Points: Not applied
  • Uma Points:
    • 4P: 1st +15, 2nd +5, 3rd -5, 4th -15
    • 3P: 1st +15, 2nd ±0, 3rd -15
  • Starting Points: 4P 25000; 3P 35000

Formula: EndScore = (MatchResult - StartingPts) / 1000 + UmaPts

Calculation of Rank Points

Formula: PtsGain = EndScore + RankPts

The result is always rounded up to an integer. (e.g. +68.2 → +69, -1.9 → -1)

Rank Points
Room 4P (East / South) 3P (East / South)
1st 2nd 3rd 4th 1st 2nd 3rd

Silver Room +20 / +40 +10 / +20 +30 / +60
Gold Room +40 / +80 +20 / +40 +55 / +105
Jade Room +55 / +110 +30 / +55 +75 / +160
Throne Room +60 / +120 +30 / +60 +120 / +240

Calculation of Copper Coins

 
An example of Copper-coin's calculation

The calculation of copper coins is a bit complex.

The Entry Fee is always applied as long as a match is taken successfully, although it's not shown in the final result.

For the Gain/Lost of match, the whole procedure is listed as follows:

  1. Calculate End Score based on final point results.
  2. Calculate Copper-coin lost for negative End Scores based on the exchange rate. The lost is always capped to a maximum lost (MaximumLost = EntryLimit - EntryFee) if exceeded the limit (EndScore < -40).
    Room Entry Limit / Entry Fee Maximum Lost Exchange Rate
    Bronze Room 0 / 0 - -
    Silver Room East

    2500 / 500

    200
    280

    Formula: CoinsLost = EndScore<-40 ? MaximumLost : EndScore*ExchangeRate

  3. Sum up the total lost.
  4. Distribute the coins proportionally to other players based on End Score.

    Formula: CoinsGain = Sum(CoinsLosts) * EndScore / Sum(PositiveEndScores)

Bond System

Each character has a unique Bond Value. The value can be enhanced by gaming or gifting to unlock corresponding vocals and story plots. At the maximum affection level, all voice lines will be unlocked, and the character will read out yakus after winning a hand. Characters can be entangled to unlock new appearance as a skin that can be chosen, accompanying with 3 extra emotes.

Bond Values
Level Upgrading Total Required
2000 2000
❤❤ 6000 8000
❤❤❤ 10000 18000
❤❤❤❤ 20000 38000
❤❤❤❤❤ 50000 88000

Bond values can be acquired as follows:

  • Completing a match in Silver Room or higher:
    • 4P East +40, 4P South +60; 3P East +25, 3P South +40.
    • Extra bond-value enhancement is applied according to the charge amount. (See Charge-related Titles section)
  • Gifting directly:
    • Green Presents +200, Blue +1000, Purple +5000.
    • An enhancement of 50% extra bond-values is applied, if the gift type matches character's interest [note 3].

If playing with a max-bond character, the bond values will be tracked such that every 1000 points grants a "bond gift". Similarly to other blue gifts, this can be given to another character to increase 1000 points of bond value, and also can be donated for 5 dust.

Gifts

Gifts can be given to a character to increase your bond with that character (see Bond System section) or turned into gold dust. 50 gold dust can be used at the lucky cat to attempt getting larger rewards, including a new character.

  • Dealer starts with 14 tiles directly (instead of regular 13+1 tiles), each tile can be treated as tsumo tiles when achieving Blessing of Heaven (Tenhou). The last tile in default tile-sequence is treated as the winning tile by default on the result screen. When the hand is composed with another yakumans, it is always treated as the highest yakuman: Single-wait Four Concealed Triplets (Suuankou Tanki), Thirteen-wait Thirteen Orphans (Kokushi Musou Juusanmen Machi) and True Nine Gates (Junsei Chuuren Poutou). In those cases the hand is counted as triple yakuman. [4]

3P-Mahjong

3P-Mahjong (Sanma) is a variation based on regular mahjong, allowing 3 players to start a match.

The ruleset of Majsoul Sanma basically refers to Tenhou. Most of the rules are identical to Tenhou Sanma.

There're two different scoring mechanics ingame, by default Tsumo-Loss is applied in Ranked Matches, while North-Bisection is provided as an alternative option in Friendly Matches.

Ruleset in details

  • Starting points: 35000, End points: 40000
  • Uma points: First +15, Second ±0, Third -15
  • Rinshan-tile amount: 8 tiles
  • Tiles from   to   are not used, thus Mixed Triple Sequence (Sanshoku Doujun) yaku is unavailable.
  • When Dora indicator is  , Dora is  .
  • Red fives: 2 tiles (  and  )
  • Honba point: 200 points for each Honba stick
  • No-ten penalty: 2000 points
  • Completing a sequence by calling Chii: Disabled
  • North can be used for replacement dora "Kita" (Nukidora / Kita).
    • After a Kan (Rinshan Kaihou) yaku is applied when winning a hand with rinshan tile from North replacing.
    • North replacing can be robbed even with non-yakuman hand. However Robbing a Kan (Chankan) yaku is not applied, the hand itself still requires another yaku to win with.
    • North replacing cannot be claimed immediately right after Pon.
    • North replacing is similar to a calling action, thus this can nullify Ippatsu (Ippatsu), Blessing of Earth (Chiihou), Nine Different Terminals and Honors (Kyuushu Kyuuhai) and Double Riichi (Daburu Riichi).
    • North replacing does not lead to a furiten of North.
  • North is treated as guest-wind tiles (Otakaze), a triplet of North cannot get 1 han as Value Tiles (Yakuhai / Fanpai).
  • Due to lacking of North seat, there're no abortive draws of Four-wind Discarded (Suufon Renda) and Four-player Riichi (Suucha Riichi).

Calculation of Scoring Points

Currently there're 2 different scoring methods ingame:

  • Tsumo-Loss (default): Winner loses the income from North seat when the hand is completed by Tsumo.
  • North-Bisection: The income from North is equally divided and distributed towards every other seats.

In Ranked Match Tsumo-Loss is applied.

The scoring table with Tsumo-Loss is basically identical to regular 4P-mahjong:

The calculation on Tsumo is finished by the following steps:

  1. Calculate the scoring points based on 4P-Mahjong.
  2. Equally divide North seat's payment (round up to whole hundreds).
  3. Append the half North payment to other seats.

E.g. A non-dealer wins with a hand of 40fu 3han.

  1. Based on 4P-Mahjong, dealer should pay 2600, while non-dealer 1300.
  2. North pays 1300, half of the payment is 650 -> round up to 700.
  3. Dealer actually pays 2600 + 700 = 3300, while non-dealer 1300 + 700 = 2000.

Notes:

  • A rough calculation between VIP points and actual cost can be done by the following formula:
    6 VIP points = 6 CNY ≈30 NTD or ≈1 USD <CN> / 1 USD <EN> / ≈120 JPY <JP>.
    • The prices in JP server are slightly increased from October 1st, 2019 due to an increasement of consumption tax.
    • The currency in CN server is switched to New Taiwan Dollar after the server migration from June 9th, 2020, while US Dollar is also available in Steam client released on July 15th, 2020. Overall prices are higher, while rewarded jades are also increased slightly.

Notes

  1. Nadeshiko's age was set to 21 before. This is modified probably for avoiding the under-aged drinking policy.
  2. 2.0 2.1 2.2 2.3 The Saki: the Nationals contents are restricted to US and Canada in EN server. The collab contents will be replaced to Ichihime if the region is not matched.
  3. However this is not always reliable, and sometimes it's misleading. Interests of some characters can match more than one type of gifts (e.g. Natsuki Shinomiya), while some of them can't match any at all (e.g. Hideki Akechi).
  4. Of course, including winning Tenhou and Chiihou both once. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
