🀄 Mah Jong at VoNCon? 🀄

A member of our wider gaming community has reached out looking for fellow Mah Jong players and learners.

They know the basics, can help people get started, and are happy to bring along a Mah Jong set for people to try. None of us need to be experts, either. Learning together is half the fun!

If you've ever wanted to give Mah Jong a go, played before, or are simply curious about what all those mysterious tiles are for, we'd love to hear from you.

Drop a comment below if you're interested and let's see if we can get a Mah Jong table going at a future VoNCon session! 🀄💜

Who knows? We might be witnessing the birth of the VoNCon Mah Jong Society... 😉✨
