【BlowURminD】教老外麻将牌系列（二）Let's play Mahjong- 基本流程 basic process

BlowURminD 4:

今天说打麻将的基本动动作。主要是settling, shuffling 和 dicing，看了这个还有谁说不会打麻将的我就打他。



Choosing the first dealing and taking positions at the table
先是选庄家和‘三缺一’。庄家是色子色出来的，也有把东南西北风朝下摸排，摸到东风就是庄家的方式。一个玩家坐在桌子的一边，按逆时针从东风起为南，西，北。
The dealer is chosen by various means, either by throwing dice (the highest total takes the east wind) or placing one of each wind face down and having each player randomly select one of these tiles. Each player sits down at their respective position at the table, which is of the reversed map: East is dealer, the right of the dealer is South, across is West and the left is North. The order becomes counterclockwise.




接着是洗牌，每张牌都面朝下，每个玩家都要两只手在麻将桌上搓来搓去，唏哩哗啦的。通常那些被洗翻过来的牌不是立即翻回去再洗，就是等洗完了再一块儿翻。
All tiles are placed face down on the table and are shuffled. By convention all players should participate in shuffling using both hands moving the pieces around the table, loudly, for a lengthy period. There is no fixed rule on how to deal or how to treat tiles which flip over during shuffle, though possible solutions include turning back over the pieces at the moment they are seen, turning over all revealed pieces at intervals or doing so at the end of the shuffling and forming of the wall.




洗完了就开始码牌，每人码36张牌，两张牌上下摞在一起为一墩，各自为18墩，并码成牌墙摆在自己门前，四人牌墙左右相接成四方城。
Each player then stacks a row of 18 tiles two tiles high in front of him (for a total of 36 tiles). Players then push each side of their tiles together to form a square wall (though experienced players will form abstract shapes to keep things interesting).

庄家掷三个色子，把点数相加，庄家的代表点数是5(1+4)，9，13，17，庄家的下家（南）是6(2+4)，10，14，18，庄家的对家（西），上家（北）类推。由此选出从哪家开牌，再用同一点数合自右向左数出那敦牌。庄家先抓四张牌（两墩），再以逆时针方式各家抓牌，每家每次两墩，直到抓满十二张牌（也就是抓三次），牌墙是顺时针递减的。然后各家再各抓一张牌组成最后的13张手牌。
The dealer throws three dices and sums up the total. Counting counterclockwise so that the dealer is 1 (or 5, 9, 13, 17), so that south is 2 (or 6, 10, 14, 18), etc. a player's quarter of the wall is chosen. Using the same total on the dice, the player then counts the stacks of tiles from right to left. Starting from the left of the stacks counted, the dealer takes four tiles to himself, and players in counterclockwise order take blocks of four tiles until all players have 12 tiles, so that the stacks decrease clockwise. Each player then takes one last tile to make a 13-tile hand. Dealing does not have to be this formal and may be done quite differently based on house rules.

玩家若拿到花牌需亮牌放在一边，然后由庄家开始补花，即是从牌墙的尾端取牌，取牌数与花牌数一致。如补上花牌可继续补，再由南家、西家、北家依次补。
Each player now sets aside any flowers or seasons they may have drawn and takes replacement piece(s) from the wall. It starts from the dealer, the number of replacement equals to the sided flower tiles. If it appears another flower tile, keep drawing till
something else comes up.




That will be all for today, we’ll go on with melds tomorrow, thanks.
今天就到这儿，明天说得分牌型。
