22 minutes ago, Gurowake said:Jakusotsu and I bantered about it last basho I think. It wasn't until then that I even figured out what was going on.
So they go in torikumi order and not the banzuke order, but only on Day 2?

17 minutes ago, Gurowake said:That's because they don't. For whatever reason, the decision-making process for Day 2 differs slightly from other days. When I saw a few people pick Asanoyama for Day 3, I even researched it the last time the situation came up to confirm that indeed they don't follow the Day 2 rules on Day 3.
Is there a pattern for what's different on Day 2?

At least provisionally:
1. Shodai
2. Terunofuji

Not to mention that in addition to Ichinojo, Kiribayama, Myogiryu, and Tochinoshin all remained at the same rank this time.

Only if you want to do well

I've gotten used to seeing one guy splitting such a pairing, but not two. And here there really was no case that a half-rank demotion would be in any way unfair to the 7-8s.
-
I think I have 58; kicking myself for moving Hoshoryu ahead of the M4 duo, which cost me 5 points, though having him land 1.5 ranks below Chiyonokuni despite recording the same number of wins at the same rank just doesn't seem right.

I did that with the M4s but not Ichinojo/Tochinoshin.

I think the three key wrestlers in this GTB are going to be Endo, Shimanoumi and Hidenoumi.
Mine is closer to Asashosakari's also, though I went with Hidenoumi all the way up at 6e.
-
I have 18 bullseyes and 4 "hits" in common with Gurowake, and wouldn't be too unhappy if those all turned out to be right.
-
I think my entry differs from this by 26 GTB points.

And Hokutofuji stays at M2 with a 9-6?? Or Wakatakakage becomes the fourth Komusubi so Hokutofuji can move up half a rank?
No, yes, yes, no, no.

Huge missed opportunity to ask about the missing sideburns.

Daiyu is a good find, but he did have two juryo yusho, so not completely free of accolades

Pasting the relevant bit as a reply to @Tigerboy1966's original question:
41 Kitakachidoki 1991.09 1998.05 highest rank M3w, no sansho, no kinboshi, can't get any more bleak than him.
