As a result of the infamous insurection in the year of the Horse, a coup was completed against Hanajo resulting in the irrevocable schism you see before you now. Enjoy the strange fruit of this grisly grafted scion.
I need a change to keep motivated. I'm not sure what it would be. Perhaps a new design or platform for the blog. Ideas would be helpful. I don't expect anyone to be willing to take it over, though I would love to share the project. Even some design suggestions, a new css theme, some art would provide a little inspiration. Thanks!

Tonight we gather once again. Who is going to win? The answer is shrouded in chaos!
Remember the time we played Mahjong as earnestly as we knew how yet no-one could win a hand to save out lives??
CloudDyke came by with a mysterious tinned tileset, packaged almost immpmossibly in a can. The tiny tiles were buiguiling but CaveDyke could not stay? Perhaps we should have more thoroughly interogated her suspicious desire to get away. Be that as it may, the curse made itself known without delay. We played a tense first East round every one chasing great hands, and yet the wall rebuffed us time and time again with exhaustive draws and three-way no-ten payouts. Only yielding up, in a most begrudging manner, the barest pale excuses for yaku.
As Kaori-san aptly commented: "Was an epic fun night. Hints of chaos energy in every hand. Sadly we were thwarted at every turn and succumb to cheap hands & (no) temmpai."

Only a few short days after the infamous Ides of March cast it's king-killing shadows over our sunny sidewalks, in the spirit of reconciliation, a joyful reunion occurred at princess place on an auspicious midweek evening. CaveDyke came late only because her preprandrial meanderings had offered her the opportunity to obtain a half dozen "mimosamosas" which were so generously shared with the recalcitrant crew of the former coup. Upon arrival she peacefully surrendered the champagne pink tileset thus healing the rift that so recently threatened to tear us all asunder.
