Optional scoring rules Wareme In the optional rule wareme (割れ目, ワレメ; fissure, split), the player in front of whom the wall was split to indicate the end of the dead wall, acquires and pays double the normal points. They are doubled after the points for counters are added. It is often especially called oya-ware (親割れ; parent's wareme'') when the player is the dealer.
