Asashosakari 20,290 Posted January 21, 2011 I was waiting to see if Hakuho dropped to the same score as Okinoumi, in which case I could've seen something like Okinoumi-Harumafuji for the final day. But then again, Kotoshogiku or really anybody might well be a more credible opponent than an 8-5 ozeki anyway... So yeah, Kisenosato-Harumafuji for senshuraku, please.

Kofuji 0 Posted January 21, 2011 As I predicted before the basho started: Day 15 - Harumafuji (do I get bonus points for that?? No Gino-sho points today, I wager.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Asashosakari 20,290 Posted January 21, 2011 (edited) As I predicted before the basho started:Day 15 - Harumafuji (do I get bonus points for that?? No Gino-sho points today, I wager.) Did you also boldly predict that Hakuho would face Kaio and that Baruto would meet Kotooshu? :-) In any case, with all contenders having picked the same - congrats to our two-sansho winner Jejima, as there's no way he can lose the gino-sho now. Edit: After yusho'ing both times Kise has been at S1e since I started playing, do I hope for him to drop to S1w so we don't effectively play the same game next time, or should I just be selfish and hope for more of what seems to work? Hmm... Edited January 21, 2011 by Asashosakari Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chisaiyama 11 Posted January 21, 2011 It seems to be unanimous but I wonder if the torikumi makers might just toss us another curve ball with Homasho or Goeido? Probably not, I'll stick with the crowd and go with: Day 15: Harumafuji Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yaochoyama 1 Posted January 22, 2011 Day 15 - Harumafuji Now if we suddenly hear from Kameumi, that will make it completely unanimous. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yaochoyama 1 Posted January 22, 2011 Asashosakari - if you want to do the official sansho prize post after the torikumi is announced, go right ahead. Otherwise, I'll post in about 24 hours. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jejima 1,498 Posted January 22, 2011 Day 15 - HarumafujiNow if we suddenly hear from Kameumi, that will make it completely unanimous. Well, currently Kameumi has fallen into the 'Wakanosato trap' - so hopefully he will change - but officially he would be too late... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yaochoyama 1 Posted January 23, 2011 Special Prize Winners for Hatsu 2011 First comes the shukun-sho or outstanding performance prize for the one who correctly picks the aite the most consecutive days. By Day 9 Jejima was at 3-6 and riding a 5-day losing streak, but he was perfect for the balance with 6 consecutive victories, including a couple of unpopular picks (see the gino-sho prize). That was enough to overtake the 4-match streak by Kofuji at the start of the basho. The kanto-sho or fighting spirit prize is given to the one who limits their worse streak of incorrect aite picks to the shortest number of consecutive days. With his 11-4 mark, Asashosakari limted his loses to single day streaks, tying the all-time record. His 11-4 mark also ties the all-time record. Finally there is the gino-sho or technique prize which works with a point system: 3 points if you're the only win to make the correct pick 2 points if you're one of two to make the correct pick 1 point if you're one of three to make the correct pick This was another case of Kofuji taking the early lead only to be overcome by Jejima, who was the only one to pick Kaio on Day 10 and one of two to select Okinoumi on Day 14, earning 5 points total. In summary: Shukun-sho Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kofuji 0 Posted January 23, 2011 Many thanks to all gyojis (especially Kofuji, who looked after the scores most days of this basho). You're welcome! I would have done day 15 too, but thought the rijicho might want that privilege. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
