Hi there, I will not be able to do anything sumo-related until Saturday, so I decided to publish a non-complete Aki Superbanzuke right now and before my absence. 18 out of 19 SB games had an Aki Banzuke ready. Interestingly, the one missing out is Chaingaing. That's kind of weird as the ranking for that game is usually and automatically created and uploaded at the end of the previous basho. I have contacted Doitsuyama about it; and I also PM'ed Andoreasu (he hasn't visited the forum since). So the Aki Superbanzuke is based on the Nagoya rankings for Chaingang (with a 20% demerit) but on the Aki rankings of all other games. See if, where, and how you stand at this place (permalink). Enjoy the basho!!

Players gonna play play play play play play... Makushita Game! This is a cordial invitation to take part in the next edition of Makushita Game, one of the nerdiest places in the sumiverse. We even have a banzuke in place (and time), so what keeps you from participating? https://makushita.sumogames.de/

I tried to make the Superbanzuke site more "modern" a few years ago, but my utter lack of both design skills and HTML skills prevent me from having something better to offer. If someone, anyone with HTML skills and interest in redesigning the site would contact me, I'd be more than happy.

I apologize deeply and profusely to Kajiyanosho and will reflect on my past, present, and future mistakes!

Good local time! Results for the 2024 Nagoya Masters (permalink) are in. Japanese gaming legend Norizo wins his 12th career Green Mawashi, his first triumph in more than four years with strong 70 points. Among his many accomplishments in Nagoya 2024 were three yusho (Odd Sumo, Sekitori Oracle, Sekitori Quad) and a double-digit finish in Tippspiel. Terarno wins his second career shukun-sho for finishing 2nd with strong 57.00 points and two yusho (Tippspiel, Juryo Game). Moreover, Terarno wins his first ever gino-sho with 25 points in his worse gaming category. The sansho are rounded out by the fifth career kanto-sho for Oskahanada. He finished among the Top 10 in seven different games (for a meager points total below 20). Congratulations to all the winners! Also uploaded are the Standings of the 2024 World Championships. Kaito and Pandaazuma look like they are battling it out for the trophy this year. ScreechingOwl, Susanoo, Norizo, and Oskahanada are in triple digits but trail considerably behind the leading duet.

Another basho is in the bags, and another yusho is in Oskanohana's particular bag. After winning Natsu Basho as well, he will be promoted to Yokozuna on the Aki Banzuke, congrats! Over long stretches of the basho, he battled it out with Asashosakari but managed to keep him at bay. In the upper group (down to M4), scoring was very high, so in order to see your final W/L record you have to subtract 1.5 points from your score and round down half-points. This means that the KK/MK line runs between Ozeki Flohru and kadoban-Ozeki Ganzohnesushi. And that of course means that Ganzohnesushi will be demoted to Sekiwake with a chance for re-promotion. In the lower group (M5 downwards), scoring was much more modest. Here, you have to add 0.5 points to your win point tally and round down half-points. The KK/MK line runs between shin-deshi Kajiyanosho and Wamahada. The shukun-sho scoring was interesting as there were two players who picked yusho winner Daiseizan, but they both went MK. So the Outstanding Performance Award goes to Terukaze for picking the 6-1 trio of Kiryuko, Aonishiki, and Kurohimeyama. The kanto-sho goes to Asashosakari (70 wins) And Terukaze also wins the gino-sho (19.50 points). His main contributors to the Technique Prize were Chiyomaru (4 points), Obara, Onojo, and Kurohimeyama (2 points apiece). Thanks for playing! I am hoping for many happy returns in Aki! :)

Sorry if that has been covered before, but what is the soundbite at the beginning of the Nagoya videos? I definitely know it, but don't know where from. "The Shining", maybe?

Hiya, the newest and latest edition of the Superbanzuke has been uploaded just minutes ago. Pandaazuma is back at Y1e, meaning that the universe is finally restored again. :) See how you stand (if you stand) at the usual place.

Much to no one's surprise, we'll have another round of Makushita Game running this July. The banzuke was carefully crafted by me, and even more carefully sent to Doitsuyama. Alas, it is not uploaded yet. If you think you can play then you can play at https://makushita.sumogames.de/ That would make me happy.

And finally solved. :)

Yes, it's duly noted. Unfortunately, I have serious computer issues that will take a while to be solved. I will update the standings in time.

It took a little longer than usual, but with the help of Bunbukuchagama we also now have the Final Standings for the Natsu 2024 Masters Series. Natsu 2024 Masters Series It's hard to believe, and yet it's true. Pandaazuma hasn't won a Green Mawashi in almost five years. But with a commanding performance (96.30) in Natsu 2024 he received his 13th career yusho. The Panda won GTB and Sekitori-Toto, got the jun-yusho in Hoshitori Game and Bench Sumo for a total of 11 scores this basho. The Inimitable is back in shape! Bunbukuchagama had a first breakout basho in a relatively new career, winning his first ever sansho. He receives the shukun-sho for finishing second overall (with yusho in Hoshitori Game and Ozumo Bingo) and also nets the kanto-sho for scoring in eight different games. In terms of Technique Prizes, congrats go to Susanoo for getting his 10th career gino-sho (more than 23.5 points in pre-basho games, but also more than 21 points in daily games). He now has the solo lead in this category again. Congratulations to all the winners! 2024 World Championship Standings His last Green Mawashi was before the pandemic, but now that the pandemic is over, it's time for the Pandaemic again. Pandaazuma (165.52) takes over the lead in the World Championship from Kaito (157.27). Susanoo in 3rd place has crossed the 100 points mark as well (106.00).

On the overall results page (Hoshitori Results for Natsu 2024, Day 15 (sumogames.de)), sansho bonuses are not added. For instance, on the overall page you lead with 1032 points. But when I add the total points on your individual page (Hoshitori Results for Bunbukuchagama in Natsu 2024 (sumogames.de)), I arrive at 1095 points.

Hi there, you might be waiting for the Superbanzuke Masters results. While SCS results for Natsu are now in, the Hoshitori Game standings are still not reflecting actual points. I wrote Doitsuyama earlier this week, but so far I got no response. As I am busy and lazy in equal measures, I was wondering whether someone would volunteer in computing the actual Top 10 of Hoshitori Game. When you copy individual results into an Excel sheet, you can add the actual points and derive at the correct results. Otherwise, we would have to wait for the day that Doitsuyama will upload the correct Hoshitori Game standings by himself.

Sorry for the delay in reporting... Chishafuwaku was leading through large parts of the basho, but on senshuraku Ozeki Oskanohana enforced a playoff. And won it on second bracket (with 4-3 Wakaikari against 3-4 Tenshoho). To determine your win-loss records, do the following: if you were M4 or higher, take your win points, subtract 0.5 points and round down half-points. If you were M5 or lower, take your win points, add 1.5 points, and round down half-points. Yokozuna Andoreasu had an off-basho and finished MK. Sansho: The shukun-sho goes to Papayasu, for picking 7-0 Fujiseiun and 6-1 Satorofuji on 4th bracket. The kanto-sho goes to chishafuwaku with 66 wins. Terukaze wins the gino-sho with 13.47 points (5.00 for being the only player to pick Kiryuko, and 2.5 points for Hatsuyama). See you back in Nagoya!!
