I'm not sure about the other multiplier issue. I'm assuming it's the same issue as above... you had a 5x multiplier and maybe a 2x target multiplier that you didn't notice. 5x + 2x = 7x... 2000x7 = 14000.
Does this explanation help at all? Does it still feel like you're getting ripped off by the house? And thanks again for taking the time to comment. If I had received more feedback like this during development, I might have designed things differently.
Thanks so much for the feedback, richinto. Balancing the points awarded was one of the hardest parts of creating the game. I had to be careful not to make the multipliers too powerful, or else I'd get into situations where a 3 of a kind might pay out considerably more than a full house, given the right set of circumstances. In order to avoid this, I decided to add the multipliers together and then multiply. This is why you're getting those results. I wonder if other players are as unhappy about this as you are. I haven't heard any other complaints, but that doesn't mean you're the only one.
I'm going to look into the possibility of changing this. I will admit, sometimes I get a series of multipliers and when I see how many points comes from it, I'm a little disappointed. But I can't have a situation where a player just tries getting a three of a kind every hand to jack up the streak multiplier. I can't think of any other way to combat this at the moment.

Hey everyone, I'm the creator of Texas Mahjong and I'd love to hear some feedback... especially negative. I'd like to get an idea why the game is rated so low. Thanks.
