<upd_detl>"river" doesn't seem to be very commonly used in English. 
couldn't find a common term for it, though it seems like there 
should be one.</upd_detl>

<upd_detl>Not really a pile (in fact, they have to be laid out in order).
I've heard the term "river" for this, though I'm not sure how common it is.</upd_detl>

<upd_detl>I agree it's not really a pile, but "discard area" sounds less 
natural and gets only 1% of the hits of "discard pile", i.e.
"discard area" "mahjong"  83 
"discard pile" "mahjong" 9050

<upd_detl>How about simply "discarded tiles". we certainly don't say "river" in English. And it's not a pile, as they are not on top of each other.</upd_detl>
