Zentoryu 154 Posted March 29, 2009 (edited) Divisional KK/MK Dividing Lines... Makuuchi: 1396.40 Juryo: 1384.40 Makushita: 1356.60 Jonokuchi: 1358.60 The Perfect Team: Y: Hakuho 297 points O: Harumafuji 202 S: Baruto 151 K: Goeido 176 M1-M4: Kakuryu 193 M5-M8: Homasho 157 M9-M12: Aran 122 M13-M16: Chiyohakuho 124 J1-J4: Toyohibiki 94 J5-J9: Shotenro 65 J10-J14: Kotokasuga 63 ----------------------------- Total Points 1644 Yusho Winners Division Shikona # Makuuchi: Terarno (M12W) 1st Juryo: Onzoushi_oyakata (J8W) 1st Makushita: Vikanohara (ms1W) 1st Jonokuchi: Kachitakai (jk1W) 1st Shukun-Sho winners Division Shikona 100+ Days Makuuchi: Randomitsuki (K2W) 9 Juryo: Onzoushi_oyakata (J8W) 8 Makushita: Vikanohara (ms1W) 9 Jonokuchi: Kozaru (jk6E) 8 Gino-Sho winners Division Shikona Day Score Makuuchi: Fujisan (O2E) 13 153 Juryo: Asahi (J12W) 10 150 Makushita: Hpulley (ms20W) 10 153 Jonokuchi: Zichi (jk5E) 10 160 Kanto-Sho winners: Division Shikona Day Score Makuuchi: Terarno (M12W) 12 52.59 Juryo: Yokotanoharry (J11W) 3 51.44 Makushita: Rowitoro (ms14W) 14 46.84 Jonokuchi: Zichi (jk5E) 10 50.55 Makuuchi: Terarno accomplished something this basho that no other player has done in the history of RotoSumo has done. The M12W went out and won the Makuuchi Yusho just one basho after winning the Juryo Yusho. Truly an amazing achievement. Terarno also took home the new Kanto-Sho award, scoring 53.59 points above the divisional average on day 12. Fujisan had been in Yusho contention all the way until the final day, trying to become the first Ozeki to win the Makuuchi Yusho since Kintamayama did it back in Hatsu 2005. Alas, his team let him down, turning in their worst single day performance of the entire basho, scoring 21 points below the Day 15 Makuuchi average. This dropped him all the way down to 4th place. He will have to be content with his second top division Gino-Sho and the erasure of the Kadoban tag he had entered the basho with. Golynohana finished second to earn Jun-Yusho honors. He also picked up the 11 wins he needed for Ozeki promotion. Congratulations!!! (Showing respect...) Former Ozeki Heruwejima and Akemisamaru were both KK, but finished 2 and 1 win short of the number required for immediate re-promotion and will now have to start over from scratch. Current Ozeki Doitsuyama and Dimitri both just missed KK, with Dimitri finishing just percentage points below the dividing line. Ouch! Both will be kadoban next basho. Randomitsuki took home the Shukun-Sho via the highest score tiebreaker. This is the second straight basho he's taken home this award. Juryo: After Day 10 Yokotanoharry was running away with the Juryo division, on pace for a rare zensho yusho. Then it all fell apart. His team went into a 4 day slump that saw them score a combined 48 points below the divisional average, allowing Onzoushi-Oyakata to storm past him to claim the Juryo Yusho. Yoko will have to settle for the new Kanto-Sho award after scoring 145 points on Day 3, 51.44 above the divisional average of 93.6 Onzoushi-Oyakata added the Shukun-Sho to his Yusho with 9 days scoring 100 or more points, winning the award via the highest overall points total tiebreaker. The gino-sho went to Asahi. The lower half of Juryo is shaping up to be a banzuke making nightmare as there are seven players with demotable records, but only 3 or 4 promotion candidates from Makushita. :-S Makushita: Vikanohara claimed the Makushita Yusho by a 10-point margin. Hpulley had led Makushita for most of the tournament, but was outscored by Vikanohara 378-328 over the final three days, allowing the later to slip past him and into first place on the final day. Congrats to Vikanohara for what I believe is his first Yusho in RotoSumo. He also took home the Shukun-sho to round out a stellar performance. Hpulley will have to be consoled with the Gino-Sho, while Rowitoro is the surprise Kanto-Sho winner thanks to the fact that both Kitakachiyama and Meisaku finished MK. This was another basho where scoring was tightly bunched around the divisional average (aka the KK/MK dividing line) resulting in plenty of 4-3 and 5-2 records. For now all I can do is shrug and hope next basho will be better. Jonokuchi There were only 11 competitors in this division this basho, as Jonokuchi moves ever closer to extinction. Kachitakai had a big final two days to move past Zichi and claim the division crown. Kozaru won the shukun-sho, while Zichi claimed both the Gino-sho and Kanto-sho thanks to an outstanding Day 10 performance that saw the jk5E score 160 points (4 short of the RotoSumo single day record), a performance that was also 50.55 better than the Day 10 Jonokuchi average. So while Zichi saw the Yusho slip away, the jk5E can take comfort in not one, but two special prizes. As in Makushita, scoring was incredibly tight in this division, resulting in the Yusho winner having only a 5-2 record. So, without further delay... here are your standings...

Sokkenaiyama 81 Posted March 30, 2009 Wow, the second time in a row I'm third in the division and I get the first 5-2. It's enough for promotion to Juryo, I think, so no problem. But I think you should change the formula, Zentoryu, because the win-loss count isn't even, there are 5 less wins than losses. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Asashosakari 20,223 Posted March 30, 2009 Wow, the second time in a row I'm third in the division and I get the first 5-2. It's enough for promotion to Juryo, I think, so no problem. But I think you should change the formula, Zentoryu, because the win-loss count isn't even, there are 5 less wins than losses. You'll find that that's the case in practically every game that assigns W-L records by employing points intervals rather than player percentiles (Hoshitori, UDH, Norizo's Cup). And seriously, the combined record for the division is 155-160, giving the average player 3.44 wins instead of the ideal 3.5 - if you think that minor deviation requires a wholesale formula adjustment, I shudder to think what'll happen once you turn your eye to all the other games that exhibit the same issue (usually to even larger degrees).

Sokkenaiyama 81 Posted March 30, 2009 Maybe I'm biased because I drew the short stick twice in a row. It's not really a problem, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

(Yusho winner...) (Shaking head...) (Sign of approval...) I know I'm guilty of it. Out of curiousity, without 0-15 absences, I had 6 more wins than losses in Makuuchi, 7 in Juryo, and 10 in Makushita in SCS. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
