(I can't speach English well.It is likely to be likely to invite misunderstanding about the problem of the translation.) Such a talk is a surprise for me. Choshu-Yuki is my family. (Her photo is true.) We watch Ozumo on TV and talk about rikishis or bouts. Our opinions are similar. there are almost the same. If it is a rule to which a similar vote is not permitted, being excluded is also reluctant. N-C is managed to loose very much. I hope for generous feelings to the N-C players. Sorry. :-D I feel stifling in this place. I think that it goes away from a purpose original of enjoying Ozumo. I might retire in the near future.......?

NC started as a unclear rule game. In the early days it was possible to entry by Day 3. The records were not left in early days. The rule of "Sansho" was not decided strictly. Now there are no prize(S,K,G). I don't know much of online communications. About in 2006, Onzoshi-oyakata made this game to strict. But now NC is not mature. (^^;) And I can't enderstand English well. I give many players trouble. (Shaking head...) I am afraid NC would be out of Super banzuke... I love Ozumo and NC. We will make this game more attractive. Please look after NC. (I am not worthy...)

Sorry to answer too late.(^^;) In Japan NHK(Nihon Hoso Kyokai) broadcasts Ozumo. Always It ends by 18:00, but sometimes ends over 18:00. (18:01,18:03,and so on) I check the ending time everyday. In Norizo cup, it is necessary for win not only knowledge of rikishi but also much fortune.

In NC-cup Sansho-point is include in ◎ or ○. Your entry ◎Aminishiki=9win*20-6lost*10=120 ○Toyonoshima=8win*10-7lost*10=10 ○Homasho=11win*10-4lost*10+Kantosho30=100 ○Asasekiryu=9win*10-6lost*10=30 Total ○ points =140 So sansho points are being refrected. Thank you!

I can't try to pick over 50 points in Odd Sumo. (Showing respect...) Choshu-yuki said, " I am trying to get more big score! " So she seems to pick today over 400 points. :-)

The calculation is complicated by points.

The entry lists are auto-updating, though. Has anybody ever lost an entry even after they were definitely listed as submitted? Maybe people just forget that they need to click another button to re-confirm their entry sometimes...? Maybe, but not me. My Japanese is good enough to read those instructions pretty fluently. Besides I'm aware of the entry routine by now. Oh, and I certainly don't check auto-updating entry lists. I don't care even enough often times to check the standings or banzuke as I obviously never did during or after Nagoya. It also isn't important to me if I am ranked in juryo or makuuchi right now. I just wanted to make the point that the game administration has done enough to get itself removed from the Super Banzuke if that is under consideration. Sorry I can't understand what you want to say. Because my poor English. (^^;) NC doesn't adopt "Kosho". Kyjyo(Absence) is treated 0-15. I entrust manager to NC entry system. I wish the system go perfect. But not. If your entry is not appear, please send another way. I hope NC forum. English OK.

It was unfortunate for you. There were 2 reasons. 1)In Norizo Cup, KK does not guarantee rise banzuke. The banzuke made relatively. EX> A9-6 M5 B9-6 C9-6 M6 D8-7 E8-7 M7 F 5-10 G10-5 M8 H6-9 I4-11 M9 J12-3 Perhaps E will be down. 2)For example 8-7, it was ubdivided into 7.5-7.5,7.75-7.25,8-7,8.25-6.75,8.5-6.5 and so on. If you were 8-7 but nearly 7-8, you probably counted 7.5-7.5 in making banzuke.

NC banzuke in Kyushu 2008 is here. Sorry too late. http://norizo.sumogames.jp/200811/ban_en.html

Sorry too late. Please wait until this week end. m(_ _)m

SQ DAY 2 Entry Ichihara Daishoumi Hoshihikari Kotooshu By Norizo

I can't entry too. Please let me entry here. Y:Hakuho O:Kotomitsuki S:Ama K:Baruto M:Aminishiki,Goeido,Kakuryu,Tochiozan,Tochinoshin,Hokutoriki by Norizo

http://norizo.sumogames.jp/200809/ban_en.html Entry start. Please come here! http://norizo.sumogames.jp/php-bin/entry.php?lang=en

I forget another rule. I add to demotion 3, 3 or more Makekoshi(7-8 or less) in last 6 basho. Ex)ex-Ozeki GONZABROW (2007.5 ~ 2008.3) 9-6, 6-9, 9-6, 6-9, 9-6, 7-8 He demoted to Sekiwake in 2008.05. So NC Ozeki is needed 4 or more Kachikoshi in every 6 basho.

NC banzuke making At first, The result written 13-2,12-3,......,2-13. But in making banzuke, it is subdivided 0.25. 8-7 players who nearly 9-6 go up much. 8-7 players who nearly 7-8 go up little. For example, player A gets 550 point, and player B gets 510 point. They are written same "8-7". But A are treated 8.25 win 6.75 lost. B are treated 7.75 win 7.25 lost. Next, In Makunouchi players go 1 rank up/down for 1 win/lost over than lost/win. (sorry my funny English) Ex) 8-7:M5->M4, 5-10:M3->M8, 6.5-8.5:M9->M11, 7.75-7.25:M6e->M5w In Juryo 2 rank up for 1 win over than lost. Ex) 9-6:J12->J6, 4.5-10.5:J3->ms1, 8.25-6.75:J7->J4 In makushita 3 rank up for 1win over than lost. Ex) 10-5:ms14->J13, 5.5-9.5:ms2->ms14, 10.75-4.25:ms8w->J3e So in makunouchi it is difficult to big jump up. The other side in makushita it is easy to big jump up. My intention is newcomers jump up rapidly. It is a general rule. Every basho some exceptions happen. So Lucky and unlucky often occur. 8-7 is no guarantee of going up. Many 9-6 or 10-5 players exist just under you, you maybe down. For example,pleyer who seen 8-7(treated 7.5-7.5) M5w ->M6e.

NC Ozeki promotion 1,Total Yusho in Komusubi 2,Makunouchi Yusho or total 2nd place in sekiwake. 3,30 wins or more in Sekiwake in continuous 3 basho. needed all "Kachikoshi"(8wins or more) needed 10wins or more the last basho. If in Komusubi counted 1win decreased. (9-6 -> 8-7) If in Hiramaku counted 2wins/rank decreased. (M1:-2,M2:-4,M3:-6,......) Ex) Sw8-7 -> Sw11-4 -> Se11-4 O Ke9-6 -> Sw12-3 -> Se10-5 O (8+12+10) M2e13-2 -> Sw10-5 -> Se11-4 O (9+10+11) Ke11-4 -> Se12-3 -> Se9-6 X (Not 10 wins last basho) Se12-3 -> Se7-8 -> Sw12-3 X (include "Makekoshi(7-8)") 4, 2 continuous Yusho(every rank) Ozeki demotion 1,4-11 or less 4-11 -> Sekiwake 3-12 -> Komusubi 2-13 or less -> Makujiri(lowest Makunouchi) *return(only once) Sekiwake 11 wins or more Komusubi 12 wins or more Makujiri 13wins or more 2, 2 continuous Makekoshi(7-8 or less) demotion to Sekiwake *return(only once) 10 wins or more **return Ozeki demotion again,can't return 1 basho. needed 30 wins in Sekiwake in 3 basho.

NC banzuke special jump up. 1,Yusho(total champ) Hiramaku or Juryo -> Sekiwke Makushita -> Komusubi 2,Yusho(every rank) Makunouchi -> Sekiwake Juryo -> Komusubi Makushita -> Makunouchi 3,12 wins(or more) Hiramaku -> Komusubi(or Sekiwake) Juryo -> Makunouchi Makushita -> Juryo 4,Sekiwake and Komusubi 8-7 or more -> not down 9-6 or more in Komusubi -> Sekiwake 5,Jump up to Komusubi(or Sekiwake) M1,2 : 9 wins or more M3,4 : 10 wins or more M5,6 : 11 wins or more It is general rule. Some exceptions happen. For example, you are lucky,you maybe 8-7 jump from M4 up to Komusubi.

I mean Q14 rikishi in "Hiramaku". But I mistake making English. In Japanese Q14 means "Hiramaku". In English Q14 means "Makunouchi".(include Yokozuna,Ozeki,Sekiwake and Komusubi) So it is unfair both Japanese and foreigner. :-S I decide Q14 is not counted. Sorry and thank you for point out my mistake. (Holiday feeling...) I can't understand English well. I often mistake question. Please point out anytime.

Special thanks to Susanoo! :-) I welcome everyone to Norizo-Cup. ;-)

It is hesitated for Kyokutenho to gain Sansho after penitence generally in me. On the other hand, for Ama, the upper load of one more victory has a big meaning. My mistake was having applied the Japanese idea to them. This is a natural result when they consider only the thing of the next basho. Possibly I should also have taken into consideration that the influence one more victory affects the next banzuke was 0 for Ama. I think so too. I believe Ama win on Day 14. I put him 2nd place in Sumo Game. http://www.japanguide.info/sumo/bout.html?20075+14+2+313

Matsumoto jd43e by Norizo

>Someone will get 8 or more wins without winning even one win against Ozeki or Yokozuna. I was going to ask about rikishis who bout against many Yokozuna and Ozeki. But this question doesn't mean that. Many rikishis in Maegashira 6 or lower will win 8 or more without no win against Yokozuna or Ozeki. So I would like to say one more word. >Someone who bouts against at least 3 Yokozuna or Ozeki will get 8 or more wins without winning even one win against Ozeki or Yokozuna. Sorry (^^;)

In Day15 result shows Iwakiyama won and Kyokutenho lost. The result has been reversed. ?? (Sign of approval...)

Perhaps they are working on another "final-day-winning-tie-breaker". :) Now Choshu-yuki exceeds Maruchan about 140 points. If they compete by tie-break, she has a big advatage. On day 7~11 they selected same rikishi. Day7 Kotomitsuki Day8 Kyokutenho Day9 Kyokutenho Day10 Homasho Day11 Kyokutenho So they have close sense. I was lost Day1 by Baruto. But I expect rikishis in my forum(http://sun.iruka.ne.jp/a9/iruka.cgi?norizo) every day. I selected almost same rikishi on Day7~11. So I have a close sense.(^^;) But on Day12,I can't decide a rikishi. Hakuho,Kotomitsuki,Asashoryu,or Kyokutenho. Whom do they select on Day 12 ?

Wonderful! (I am not worthy...) Please send me,too. (I am not worthy...)
