---|---|---|---|
Winning (a.k.a. basic points, Ch.
ji ben fu) |
20 points | CO, W, WA, ZJ 0 pts; T 2 pts, K 5 pts, CC 10 pts; HK, CN, IMS, MMM, W 0 faan | Double if fully concealed hand (Y/N) K Yes |
Fully exposed hand (all sets melded, including the winning
set) Note: Implies One-chance hand and Out on a pair if scoring specified with the same unit. |
| CO 6 pts, WA 7 pts, T 10 pts; CT 2 dbl; IMS, MMM 1 faan, W 2 faan | Acceptance of Kongs: All Kongs (CN)
/ Melded Kongs (default) / Kongs from melded Pungs / No Kongs (WA) Note: This setting overrides the general Kong option specified on the General option page of the Rules section. |
Self-drawn last tile (Ch. zi mo ho,
Jap.
tsu-mo ru) |
2 points | AM, ZJ 0 pts, CO, T, WA 1 pt, F 5 pts, MMM 10 pts; IMS 0 faan, CN, HK, W 1 faan | Note: If separate scoring for Fully
concealed hand is specified, bonus for self-drawn last tile is added
to total score only if the scoring is specified using a different unit.
E.g., if Fully concealed hand scores 1 dbl and Self drawn last
tile scores 2 pts, the bonus for Self-drawn last tile is added;
if both score doubles, only the scoring for Fully concealed hand is
included in the total score. Exception: If the pattern itself implies Concealed hand (e.g., all 7 pairs based hands do, as do many Limit hands and patterns that by definition require 4 concealed sets – this does not include patterns that have separate scoring for being melded/concealed), and scores specify scoring for both Fully concealed hand and Self-drawn last tile, points are paid only for the latter. |
Out on a one-chance Chow (a.k.a. Out
on a one-way Chow; Ch. kan zhang, bian zhang, Jap. kan-chan,
pen-chan) e.g. 1-2 or 8-9 or n-?-n+1 (middle tile missing), as opposed to going out on a Chow that can be completed on both sides. |
2 points | AM, BR, CC, CO, D, F, G, K, ZJ 0 pts, WA 2 pts; CN 1faan; HK, IMS, MMM, W 0 faan | |
Out on last of a one-chance Chow e.g. calling with B-22 B68 while three B7's appear amongst discards and melds. Note: Does not include scoring for Out on a one-chance Chow. |
– | WA 3 pts | |
Out on last of a multi-chance Chow e.g. calling with B-22 B67 while four B5's and three B8's (or vice versa) appear amongst discards and melds. |
– | WA 9 pts | Allow 1 of both end tiles (Y/N): WA
No If checked, allows one available winning tile at both ends of the calling shape (e.g., that three of B5's and B8's have been played when calling with B67). |
Out on 5 of of a Chow 4-5-6 e.g. going out with B5 while calling with B-22 B46. Note: The scoring assignment is ignored and zeroed, if there is no scoring for Out on a one-chance Chow. Does not include scoring for Out on a one-chance Chow. |
– | WA 1 pt | Require self-drawn (Y/N): WA
No If checked, requires that the winning tile is self-drawn. Note however that pattern never implies scoring for Self-drawn last tile. |
Out on a pair (Ch. tan chao machi,
Jap. danki) Note: Implied in Exposed hand and Fully exposed hand. |
2 points | AM, BR, CO, F, K, WA, ZJ 0 pts, WA 1 pt; HK, IMS, MMM, W 0 faan; CN 1 faan | |

– | CC 2 pts | |
Out on a pair of fives Note: The scoring assignment is ignored and zeroed, if there is no scoring for Out on a pair. Does not include scoring for Out on a pair or Pair of 2, 5, 8, and is not implied by All 2's, 5's or 8's. |
– | – | Require self-drawn (Y/N): WA
No. If checked, requires that the winning tile is self-drawn. Note however that pattern never implies scoring for Self-drawn last tile. |
Out on 4th of its kind (3 exemplars of
the tile appear as discards and
melded tiles, and player goes out on the 4th), e.g. calling with B-22 B-45,
when four of either B3 or B6 have already been played. Note: The points for Out on 4th of its kind is are ignored if a player gets a bonus (in the same unit) also for Out by robbing a Kong. (If one pays a point bonus and the other a double/han bonus, both are included in the point calculation.) |
| CO 4 pts; CT 1 dbl; CN 1 faan | Consider tiles in player's own hand as "played" (Y/N) CO, CN No. |
One-chance hand e.g. B1 B-345 (no B-2345, which has 2 chances to go out – however, see options on the right) Note: In Four Winds 1 there was a pattern called "one-chance", which described a hand that was completed with a pair or a one-chance Chow, disregarding number of different tiles the hand could go out. In version 2 this pattern has been replaced by separate patterns "Out on a pair" and "Out on a one-chance Chow". One-chance hand is implied in Exposed hand, Fully exposed hand and Last-chance hand. Also, if neither of the options on the right are checked, One-chance hand includes scores for Out on a one-chance Chow. |
– | CO 1 pt, CC, D, G 2 pts; CT 1 dbl | Allow dead multiple-chance hand (Y/N):
CC Yes; CO No. If checked, allows hands like B-2256, if B4 or B7 has been played 4 times (and appear amongst discards or melds). Note that a hand does not become "one-chance" due to requirements posed by rules like "minimum point" requirement (i.e., if only one of the two or more structurally possible winning tiles makes the hand a valid winning hand, this does not render the hand "one-chance"). Consider tiles in player's own hand as "played" (Y/N): CC, CO, D, G No. If checked, the non-melded tiles in player's own hand are considered as "played"; this allows hands like B-2345 to be considered as one-chance, if there are no other B2's or B5's available for play (that is, all four of either B2 or B5 appear in melded sets, discards, or are used in player's own hand). |
Last-chance hand One-chance hand that goes out on the last available tile of its kind. E.g. B-11 B-35, where B4 has been played 3 times (no B-11 B-34, even if B2 or B5 has been played 4 times, since this is not a one-chance hand – however, see options on the right). Last-chance hand implies One-chance hand. |
– | WA 5 pts; IT 1 dbl | Consider tiles in player's own hand as
"played" (Y/N): IT Yes; WA
No. If checked, the non-melded tiles in player's own hand are considered as "played"; this allows hands like B-444 B-35 to be considered as last-chance, if there is only one B4 available for play (that is, the three other B4's appear either in melded sets or as discards, or are used in sets in player's own hand). Allow dead multiple-chance hand (Y/N): IT, WA Yes. If checked, allows hands like B-11 B34 to be considered as last-chance, if B2 has been played 3 times and B5 4 times (or vice versa). Note: If both of the options above are checked, hands like B-2345 are also considered as last-chance, if either B2 or B5 is no longer available (that is, all four of B2 and three of B5 – or vice versa – appear in melded sets, discards, or are used in player's own hand), and there is only one tile left of the other (the remaining 3 appear in melded sets, discards, or are used in player's own hand). |
Bird eats the cake (Dot 1 accepted as Bamboo 1 when claimed for a pair) | | D 10 pts | |

1 double | CO 8 pts, K 5 pts, T 1 pt, WA 3 pts, ZJ 10 pts; HK, CN, IMS, MMM, W 1 faan; JM 1 han | Self-drawn last tile implied (Y/N): CO
Yes In most rules bonus for self-drawn winning tile is added to the total score, since a hand can receive bonus for Out on the last tile of the Wall also if it goes out on a supplement tile (which might already include bonus for self-drawn last tile). |
Out on the last discard (a.k.a. Catching
the Fish from the Bottom of the River;Ch. ho di lao yu, Jap. ho-tei) Note: Refers to a situation where a player goes out on a discard after the last tile of the Wall has been drawn. The pattern is available also in the Basic points category. |

1 double | CO 8 pts, F 0 pts, K 5 pts, T 1 pt, WA 3 pts, ZJ 15 pts; CN, IMS, MMM, W 1 faan; JM 1 han | For Kongs only (Y/N): CO,
CC Yes Note: If checked, player gets scores for Out on a supplement tile only if the supplement was given for declaring a Kong, and not if it was given for replacing a Flower or Season tile. Self-drawn last tile implied (Y/N): CO Yes In most rules bonus for self-drawn winning tile is added to the total score, but some rules consider these two patterns mutually exclusive. |
Out by robbing
a Kong (Ch. qiang gang huo, Jap. chan-kan) , Note: Robbing a Kong is considered going out on a claimed tile (and the player declaring the Kong is considered a discarder). Accordingly, a Kong robber can get extra points for Out on the last discard. Note: The pattern is available also in the Basic points category. |
1 double | CO 8 pts, K 5 pts, T 1 pt, WA 3 pts, ZJ 15 pts; HK, CN, IMS, MMM, W 1 faan; JM 1 han | |
