hello... I read the documentation, but I am confused.
How can we subscribe to that tournament?
I am an Chinse official mahjong addict

that depends on the country you're from... all countries have quotas for participation and some of the EMA countries had qualification tournaments, so that question is not really generally answerable.

You may apply for participation via the registration form on the given site, if your country has not yet nominated players or completed registration (pls. see the quota table on http://mah-jongg.de/veranstaltungen/ecr2010/#quotas ) - however your registration will be subject to approval of the national Mah-Jongg body or the organisers

anyway: this a Riichi Championship using EMA Riichi rules - so if you're (only) a Chinese Official player, it's probably of no real value for you?!

Hi everybody,

as you may have noticed there are a few spare seats at the Open European Riichi Championship this year in Hanover, Germany. We still do not know the exact amount as the deadline for registration is only on June 15th. But we do know how we want to share the remaining seats. Let me inform you first that nearly every nation had asked for additional seats, so we certainly did not want to treat this topic lightly.
So here is what we decided to do: we will draw lots out of any application that we get from not registered players, neither regarding their nationality nor their place in any qualification. So please spread this request amongst your MJ playing friends to apply for a left-over seat by filling in the form on our website

We will do the lottery on June 16th. So need to registrate till the 15th. You'll see the results as well on our website as on youtube. The info about the upcoming lottery will be published on further platforms.

So if you wanna play in the ECR check out the link. Applicants need to have Riichi tournament competency, of course. Good luck and maybe we´ll see us there!
