Guidelines

• When calling a tile:
  1. Announce (say "Pon")
  2. Expose the meld tiles in your hand
  3. Take called tile and meld it
  4. Discard

• When calling Riichi:
  1. Announce (say "Riichi")
  2. Discard your tile sideways
  3. If no one calls Ron on your discard, add Riichi stick

Chombo

• After a Chombo, hand is restarted as if it never happened (Riichi sticks from hand are returned, Honba does not increase)
• Noten Riichi is a Chombo, will only be punished if hand is a draw
• Knocking over 3 or more tiles in an opponent's hand is a Chombo
• Knocking over tiles in the wall is not punished in most cases
• Empty win is a Chombo (saying "Ron" and not doing it)
• Empty call is a dead hand (saying "Pon" and not doing it)
• Empty Riichi is a dead hand (saying "Riichi" and not doing it)
• "Dead hand" means you can no longer call or win with that hand
• Generally, if a mistake means the hand can no longer continue fairly, it is a Chombo. Otherwise it is a dead hand.
