Mexican Train scorekeeper

Keep thirteen rounds of double-12 domino scores, add pips and handle an agreed double-blank penalty.

Thirteen rounds, lowest score wins

Enter two to eight player names. This sheet starts at double 12, counts down one engine per hand and ends at double blank. Enter the pips remaining in every player’s hand; the player who went out has zero. A blocked hand can leave everyone with pips. Lowest total after thirteen rounds wins; equal totals remain tied.

Adding remaining tiles

The helper accepts tiles such as 12-8 6-0 0-0. It counts both ends, rejects duplicate tiles in either order and lets you count double blank as zero or an agreed 50-point house penalty. That example totals 26, or 76 with the penalty. Copy the result into the player’s round.

Confirm the double-blank rule before play and use it throughout. This sheet records scores; it does not enforce train moves, starting-hand sizes or unresolved doubles. It is for a double-12 set and full countdown, not other set sizes.
