I'd love to try, but I'm not familiar some of the terms.

Can you rephrase the questions 3 & 5?

I hope this helps.

#3. Regardless of whether he makes kachikoshi or makekoshi, on which day (8-15) does he cross that line?

Or, on what day does he hit the 8-win or 8-loss mark?

For example: if he was 7-7 on day 14, the answer to this question would be "Day 15" whether he wins or loses his final bout.

#5. Does he win the bout on the final day of the tournament? (aka Day 15, aka senshuraku)?

[kaiguma 0]

Hey Nish - you didn't answer #2! Do I get an extra point? C'mon I'll need it . . .

As a reminder, Kotomitsuki cannot meet Kotooshu during the regular matches, only in a yusho playoff. They both belong to the same heya.

As a general reminder, "YES" is not a kimarite.

As a general reminder, the answer to, "does so and so beat so and so?" cannot be "YORIKIRI."

As a general reminder, your guess for Mickey's record would probably count as Question #0.
