Hummer Team is a lot older than what we think

I understand about 80% of thge game, the only thing I cannot figure out is when you have enough piece of a family (ex: 3 dots of 3), how do you put it on the left ?[/quote]Assuming I read that correctly, you're supposed to discard one of the other tiles unless you have a winning hand.

I'm going to edit the 2 pages (Someri Team/Hummer Team). But question time:
Hummer Team started with C&E (1990 with Tiles of Fate) or 1992 with Jing Ke ?

I'd say 1992. We don't know if Hummer Team existed as a separate entity within C&E - AFAIK we only know of two people that worked for both C&E and Hummer, Silvers Lin and Kathy Chen. thats not enough to say the whole team already existed at that point.

I think they are seperate companies. If they were the same, then it'd be weird for Hummer Team to release an RPG in 1995 under the C&E name.

oh i just noticed something - Hummer Team's name in Chinese is 悍馬小組, "han ma xiao zu", "han ma" is the Chinese pronunciation of Hummer but it also literally means something like "brave horse". Which I guess explains the main character from "The Hummer" from the 15 in 1 being a horse- it kind of has a double meaning in Chinese.
