Victorian Riichi Mahjong Open Spring 2024

Thanks to everyone who attended our first Victorian tournament at The Gaming Verse! 28 competitors played a 4 hanchan scramble, with a cut to the top 8 who played a final round, with scores being reduced to 20%. The ruleset in use was WRC 2022 with Red Fives modification and 15/5 uma.

Congratulations to Yiran Qiu for coming in first place! And special mentions to Oscar Yu, Arthur Luo, and Richard Kiing for placing 2nd - 4th respectively.
