Mahjong Rallies
A Rally is a short, optional mahjong competition. Meet other North Texas players around the table, earn points and play for prizes.
How Rallies work
Choose a Rally that fits your schedule. Each has its own dates, entry fee and prizes. Join a table with players entered in the same Rally, agree on a time and place, and record your scores together.
Your annual membership covers year-round social play. For future Rallies, members register separately for each competition they choose to enter.

Fall Rally rules & scoring
Set up your table
Four players entered in the Fall Rally choose a time and place. Each brings a 2026 NMJL card and should be comfortable playing American mahjong. The host provides the equipment unless the table agrees otherwise.
Play a qualifying round
Play two to four games in one sitting with the same four players. Four games is standard. Add up the games, check everyone’s totals together, and have the player who proposed the round submit all four scores in Play MahjMate.
Count your best weeks
Each Rally week runs Monday through Sunday, Central time. Play as often as you like. Your highest round score each week counts, and your best six of the seven weeks make up your season total.
Fall Rally prizes
Six awards with a total prize value of $1,500. Each winner also receives a trophy, and a player can win more than one award.
