Ohai~ I'm TheWickedWizardOfOz, you may refer to me as Wicked, or anything you like, as long as I know you're referring to me lol

The story of how I came to be an editor here:

I got into Saki around when the anime was wrapping up the Nagano prefectural tournament, 7 years ago. I saw the thumbnail include mahjong when I was browsing an anime site, and immediately got excited.

My family plays mahjong, and I've always loved playing and watching it, so an anime based around mahjong made me really happy. However, when I started watching, I was super confused all the time, because Japanese mahjong is super different than Chinese mahjong. I continued watching, however, because I was really interested in Saki (and Someya Mako, but that's a story for a different time), and I got hooked.

I learned a little bit, and eventually found a Japanese mahjong simulator, but stuck with my Chinese-style mahjong (which did not turn out as well as it does for Hao, lemme tell you: I lost, A LOT). I got fed up with losing that much, and dropped Saki, wanting to only play the Chinese way.

After sulking for a while, I eventually learned all the yaku, how to calculate, han, fu, etc. Around this time, I think the Achiga anime was being produced, so I got really excited, again.

And well, I started reading the Achiga manga after the 12th episode (before the 13th~16th episodes were confirmed), and I fell in love with Saki all over again. And upon coming to this wiki, I slowly began making small improvements, and well the rest is history :)
