Doitsuyama

You are actually right, but perhaps not for long as he has an active pursuer hot on his heels... Here is a table of all rikishi with 70% or more of their career basho in maegashira (limited to hatsu dohyo after 1934): ID Shikona mae tot ratio -------------------------------- 1284 Takekaze 83 100 83.00 12055 Endo 39 48 81.25 26 Higonoumi 53 66 80.30 3823 Sakuranishiki 24 30 80.00 3911 Ohikari 62 79 78.48 11934 Chiyotairyu 46 59 77.97 3843 Wakasegawa 53 68 77.94 4002 Toyokuni 36 47 76.60 10 Tochinonada 73 96 76.04 5967 Yoshikaze 71 94 75.53 3876 Wakabayama 48 66 72.73 11728 Takarafuji 52 72 72.22 17 Tamakasuga 64 89 71.91 11786 Aoiyama 50 70 71.43 50 Tokitsuumi 50 70 71.43 2818 Tokitenku 60 85 70.59 3864 Hajimayama 43 61 70.49 3871 Otachi 40 57 70.18 3929 Kaizan 42 60 70.00

The record since 1909 actually is Kasachikara, believe it or not. He had his 41st birthday on day 4 of his ultimately career high ranked basho. Other than him and Sawaisamu, there is only Wakakuma after World War II who beats Akiseyama. But after that it is really, really close (also for the salaried ranks record) as Ononishiki was only a few days younger than Akiseyama at his highest rank basho. Too bad that Akiseyama fell from 7-6 to 7-8...

Well, that's a limitation of the automation which already is very complicated to be able to deal with two uses of the substitute. I looked into the rules, and there actually was no mention of being allowed to use the substitute again at all. I amended the rules with "The substitute then can be used for one more substitution."

The automation definitely can't handle 7 maegashira, it would be a big undertaking for that, starting with the database.

Seems like a typo, I corrected it to 93kg.

What part of this is the surname?

Fixed...

Fixed. I had to delete 5 Sekitoto entries since almost all makuuchi bouts were changed. I kept the TTT entries since you pick only rikishi, not bouts, but be aware that the opponent may be different.

It's fixed

Sorry about that, I have no idea why it hanged. I entered these picks now.

Well, a LOT of readings without this sign are uncomfirmed as well. But in these cases there are other plausible readings, making it particularly unsure.

Welcome back on the forum! Yes, I'm still maintaining Sumo Reference. Actually it wasn't really based on your seed as work on it started long before that but obviously the design got influenced a lot by this.

I should make some deliberate errors in the database, then I'd know if the newspapers get the stats from it.

Golynohana asked me to fetch the picks from the database, so in theory all results are available for you. Of course he will update when he's back.
