Riichi mahjong is great if a computer handles it for you! Base points don't matter in 90% of cases though. The majority of hands are gonna be 30 fu for exposed and concealed self draw and 40 fu for concealed ron. Except for Pin Tsumo, which is how broken that particular yaku is.
But hey, at least it's not MCR where it can't even decide on its own whether things can stack or not.
Also, some lulz about how bad Mahjongtime used to be:

Yes, even worse than it is now.

It's not necessarily asking you if you WANT to chow, it's just giving you
the option to chow, just like you have in a real world (RW) game with real
people. Now that William has explained things, I realize that MJTime is
purposely geared to be more like a RW game than an online game. In a RW game
you can call pung or chow at any time, whether it's allowed by the rules or
not.

Yes, when you play mahjong live, say chi no matter what is happening. Let's see how well that goes. Anyhow, after 7 years their client is barely functional! It doesn't rule your hand dead if you press the wrong button.Yay!
