A Couple of Notes on Etiquette
The winner declares how many fans they have got. As long as they are not
claiming more than they actually have, that is what they are paid. One
player tonight claimed for 16 fans for his hand, when he in fact had 18.
This mistake cost him about 2 quid in lost revenue.
It is okay to let someone take over your seat to play for a while with their
money (or yours if you're feeling generous.)
A game should only finish when all 4 rounds have been played through.
Black tea is drunk during play (typically a Lipton tea bag in a glass which
remains there throughout. You keep topping it up with hot water, until you
have really got your money's worth ;-). Coffee is almost acceptable. Beer,
and other real refreshments is frowned upon.
When making your wall, you take 3 tiles in each hand, put them together, and
then do it again. You put the second 6 on top of the first. You do the
same thing again in front of your mini wall, and then taking 3 stacks in
either hand, you add these to each end of your mini wall. You do this
again, and thus have your 18 tile wall, this should be pushed into the
middle at an angle, with the left-hand side sloping towards the table edge.
You should smoke heavily throughout (I'm not sure if this essential, but it
has happened every time I've played here, and every time I've watched ;-)
