Tournament in memory of Adrie Van Geffen – a3geffen.
We are inviting you to join the tournament in memory of Adrie Van Geffen – a3geffen.
On June 14th, 2021, Adrie Van Geffen – a3geffen has passed away unexpectedly, and the
world has lost a truly great man and a mahjong guru. He played many mahjong rules
including MCR, Riichi, Hong Kong, Taiwanese very well.
Our relationship with Adrie
started at the dawn of the Mahjong Time project. Adrie Van Geffen helped us with the
tricky mahjong rules and scorings. He always had the time to listen and gave advice and
assistance when needed.
He also ran a column in our blog, with tips and pointers
for new and more skilled players. Adrie was always extremely helpful to new players in
their endeavor to learn the game. Prayers and fond memories are what we must
remember Adrie.
Adrie particularly enjoyed playing in our tournaments, and in his
memory, we will host a tournament each year on Adrie’s birthday. This year we will play
MCR rules. Perhaps, next year Riichi to continue Adrie Van Geffen’s legacy. It was truly a
pleasure to have gotten to know Adrie, he will be missed dearly:
