All player’s attendance points will be reduced to 10% at the start of the WRC league. Newcomers, this is the best opportunity to get higher AP than the veterans to avoid sitting out for your first game!

That’s all for the aka-ari league! Be sure to attend so that you do not miss out on all the fun!
Feel free to ask any questions regarding this league’s rules if you’re unsure.

An overdue post
Last year, we had Simon, Destin, Geswin and Bernard represented Singapore in IORMC to play against other 15 countries! We didn’t do well, getting only 13th in ranking but it is an improvement of 2 rank! The best performing play and the only player with positive overall score was Simon, who ranked at 25th out of 64 players.
This year, let’s do MUCH better for the past 2 years. The selection trial for IORMC 2018 will be done through the online tournament starting in July. This is open to all, including Singaporeans Riichi players who are not SMC players. The registration is open and can be signed up through this link here.
