Hello to all game players. My simple question or query is: Where can I find an updated version of the taipei game, sometimes called MahhJong (I hope I spelled that correctly). It is a Windows game, and I know there is a copy (version 3 or 3.1) existing at common FTP sites. However, this version, although it allow random games, does not allow random styles of game boards. I have played, in the past (about 1 year ago), a Windows version of this game. The version I played not only had random game numbers, but also allowed the user to choose from a variety (about 8 or so) different game board layouts. I was hoping that the 'net wisdom would provide me a answer to my query or at least a suggestion of where to find the latest version I am talking about (I can't get it from where I originally played it because it was deleted by accident!). Perhaps someone has it and would be so kind as to tell me where they got it. Or perhaps, you have heard or seen this game before too. I would greatly appreciate any help and time you could offer. Thank you so kindly in advance. Lastly, although e-mail is preferred, it is not necessary. -- Sincerely, Robert Kayman ---- kay...@cs.stanford.edu -or- c...@cs.stanford.edu "In theory, theory and practice are the same.
