=== Taiwanese scoring === Unlike Hong Kong scoring, Taiwanese scoring employs a linear relationship between ''tai'' (ε°) (points in the Taiwanese system) and chips. When a win occurs in Taiwanese Mahjong, the number of ''tai'' of the winning hand is multiplied by a factor and then added to a base score. For example, if the base and factor are 3 and 2, respectively, then the loser to a 5-''tai'' hand pays the winner 13 (3+2Γ5). The Taiwanese system follows a different payment procedure from the standard procedure mentioned earlier: * In the case where a player wins by a discard (a player ''picks off'' an opponent), the player who performs the discard pays each winner (there may be more than one). * In the case where a player wins by a draw (a player wins by ''self-pick''), each player except the winner pays the winner. When the dealer is involved in either the winning or losing side of a hand, extra ''tai'' (one plus twice the number of times the dealer has consecutively retained the dealership) are added to the dealer's winnings or losses.
