I don't know how to play any ruleset of Mahjong at ALL. I don't even know if I should bother learning or not. What kind of game is it exactly. I like strategy games, and I think it's some kind of strategy game (or am I totally off), but yet I don't like chess or checkers, or chinese checkers.. I wish I could describe why I don't like em...But...Eh...I don't know. Normally I know why I feel the way I do about things, but that one always eludes me.
Anyway if someone could kindly tell me the basic gist of the game, what makes it fun, what makes the challenge, etc I'd appreciate it. If it's not a strategy game my next guess is it's more of a puzzle game, and I generally never like puzzle games (like that sudoku game, ugh..yuck.. blech).
