The current Hong Kong standard — 港式清章, known in English as Hong Kong Old Style or HKOS — as its own preset: 144 tiles with eight flowers, no win below three faan, a 13-faan limit, full-chung payment and the half-spicy ladder.
Frequently asked questions
How is this different from the Guangdong presets?Hong Kong uses 144 tiles with flowers, a three-faan minimum, a 13-faan cap and full-chung payment. The Guangdong gai ping wu and tui dao wu presets use 136 tiles with the horse bonus and instant kong settlement, and are offered separately.
What happens below three faan?The win is simply not offered and play continues. Self-draw, concealed hand, all-chow, flowers and wind or dragon pungs add faan toward the minimum.
Is HKOS the same as Hong Kong Old Style or 香港麻雀?Yes. Hong Kong Old Style, HKOS, 港式麻雀 and 香港麻雀 all refer to the same current Hong Kong thirteen-tile standard.
Can I play half chung or a lower cap?The rule spec defines options for half-chung payment, an 8 or 10 faan cap, a one-faan minimum and the full-spicy ladder. Games currently use the Hong Kong standard defaults (full chung, 13-faan cap, 3-faan minimum, half-spicy ladder); an option picker is planned.
