In Japan there is a networked mahjong game called "Mahjong Fight
Club", that goes across the country and is incredibly popular. All
arcades have at least four machines some have up to 12. You get an ID
card that saves all your stats (with password and fingerprint
security), you get a national ranking, and if you can't speak japanese
well, and thus intimidated to go to one of the thousands of MJ parlors
in Japan, this is a good alternative. If I am unsure of any rules I
normally see how they are handled via this game.

In MJFC the order is 1-2-3-5-4 

So once you call kan (hidden or open) you get a tile, a dora is
flipped then you discard.
