Mahjboard runs the busywork of your mahjong league—table seating, session pacing, scorekeeping, and standings—so you can run the league, not the spreadsheet. It's simple on purpose: one score per player, one link for the entire season, zero formulas, and nothing for your players to install. Any style works: American mah jongg (NMJL), Riichi, Hong Kong, house rules. Start a league, import your roster from a spreadsheet or paste a list of names, and you're ready for league night. Before the games begin, one tap builds the night's tables. Mahjboard remembers who's already played together and mixes each session's pairings for variety, or groups tables by skill level. Move anyone, sit a player out, reshuffle, or undo. Name a table "Cream bakelite set" and it stays that way week to week. During play, the session timer keeps everyone on time. Tell Mahjboard when the night starts, how long it runs, and how many games to aim for. It splits the time evenly, nudges you and your Apple Watch at each checkpoint, and keeps the countdown on your lock screen. Open the league near game time and it offers to start the clock for you. Scorekeeping is the easy part. Tap the evening's scores in, or let them come to you. Players can submit their own, and one submission can cover the whole table. Every score waits for your approval before it counts, and you can approve or reject it right from the notification. Mark who attended, and Mahjboard instantly ranks the cumulative leaderboard, so nobody has to wonder where they stand. Every league gets its own public page to share by text or QR code. Players just tap and the live board opens. No app to install, no account, no password, and nothing for them to pay. They can look themselves up and see their weekly scores all season long. One subscription covers your entire league. Make it yours. Add your logo, colors, and website once, and every league and leaderboard you run wears them. Save the standings as a branded image for Instagram or the group chat. If you host at a lounge, studio, or shop, the board points players right back to you. When a season wraps, archive it and start the next one. Run your Tuesday group, the club ladder, and the spring tournament side by side, all from the phone already in your pocket. If you can send a text, you can run a league.

Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Mahjboard at 100% against Everbridge's 7%. Mahjboard also leads on rating (5.0 vs 2.0) and update cadence (every 10 days vs every 2 months). Everbridge's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ratings volume (1.3K vs 2). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
