Jakusotsu

Once again, only the Rijicho begged to differ. Gurowake (Y1e) 9-2 Reonito (YOw) 9-2 Hakuhonofan (K1e) 9-1-1 Jakusotsu (K1w) 9-2 Oshirokita (S1e) 8-3 Sumo Spiffy (M4w) 8-3 Profomisakari (S1w) 7-4 Seiyashi (M1w) 7-4 WAKATAKE (M1e) 6-4-1 shimodahito (M3e) 5-1-5 Jejima (M2w) 4-7 The Kyokai (M4e) 1-10 Chartorenji (M2e) 0-0-11 Ryoshishokunin (M3w) 0-0-11 Sakura (YOe) kosho Hokutofuji's aites: 1. Tochinoshin, 2. Tobizaru, 3. Nishikigi, 4. Shimanoumi, 5. Kotoeko, 6. Chiyotairyu, 7. Endo, 8. Meisei, 9. Sadanoumi, 10. Aoiyama, 11. Wakamotoharu

The mighty Tokushoryu? Much weaker?? Blasphemy!!

Might as well go to Tamawashi (Kataonami, 4 rikishi) who will collect six fusensho on the way.

Takasago and Futagoyama

If it's true, then Shodai would be just like me - lazy to the bone.

Shodai Nishikigi Chiyomaru

Could be anybody, so let's go with the most "obvious": Day 11 - Wakamotoharu

Among all younger than 80 (including Kitanofuji), 14 out of 21 doesn't strike me as particularly few.

Well, I guess we have to live with entries like these: http://sekitoto.sumogames.de/Entry.aspx?B=194&D=9&P=6 (actually Kintamayama picked both Kitanowaka and Churanoumi, which apparently displays as loss)

He didn't. He pointed the gunbai to Wakamotoharu after stopping the bout.

Rijicho Jejima finally succeeded after six attempts. Gurowake (Y1e) 8-2 Reonito (YOw) 8-2 Hakuhonofan (K1e) 8-1-1 Jakusotsu (K1w) 8-2 Oshirokita (S1e) 7-3 Sumo Spiffy (M4w) 7-3 Profomisakari (S1w) 6-4 WAKATAKE (M1e) 6-4 Seiyashi (M1w) 6-4 Jejima (M2w) 4-6 shimodahito (M3e) 4-1-5 The Kyokai (M4e) 1-9 Chartorenji (M2e) 0-0-10 Ryoshishokunin (M3w) 0-0-10 Sakura (YOe) kosho Hokutofuji's aites: 1. Tochinoshin, 2. Tobizaru, 3. Nishikigi, 4. Shimanoumi, 5. Kotoeko, 6. Chiyotairyu, 7. Endo, 8. Meisei, 9. Sadanoumi, 10. Aoiyama

I won't even begin trying to imagine what would have happened if Inosuke actually did it instead.

Looked more like a veeeery careful Tamawashi to me...

Fixed now, but I don't know what will happen with the wrong Toto entries submitted before.

Abi Meisei Chiyoshoma

Just wait until more and more heya retreat into quarantine.

Due to Naruto-beya's withdrawal, the Juryo torikumi for day 9 was redone (removing Oshoma). Sumogames.de (Toto etc.) still has the bout Oshoma-Yago, so I'll advise everybody not to make theirs picks before it is fixed.

Yeah, well, why not... Day 10 - Aoiyama

Bumboshi for Wakamotoharu

Finally... Gurowake (Y1e) 7-2 Reonito (YOw) 7-2 Hakuhonofan (K1e) 7-1-1 Jakusotsu (K1w) 7-2 Oshirokita (S1e) 6-3 WAKATAKE (M1e) 6-3 Seiyashi (M1w) 6-3 Sumo Spiffy (M4w) 6-3 Profomisakari (S1w) 5-4 shimodahito (M3e) 4-1-4 Jejima (M2w) 3-6 The Kyokai (M4e) 1-8 Chartorenji (M2e) 0-0-9 Ryoshishokunin (M3w) 0-0-9 Sakura (YOe) kosho Hokutofuji's aites: 1. Tochinoshin, 2. Tobizaru, 3. Nishikigi, 4. Shimanoumi, 5. Kotoeko, 6. Chiyotairyu, 7. Endo, 8. Meisei, 9. Sadanoumi

Oh c'mon, everybody should know Fujisan's real password by now, typo notwithstanding. (...and I see somebody entered already, just with Takakeisho instead of Shodai...)

Something in the chikara-mizu perhaps?

Given the somewhat fixed premium matchup Kotonowaka-Ichinojo, I daresay if Takanosho hadn't withdrawn he would have been up against Abi, making Sadanoumi available.
