Pricing: Hakuho 469 Chiyotairyu 123 Aran 119 Harumafuji 417 Aminishiki 126 Chiyonokuni 107 Kisenosato 259 Kyokutenho 119 Daido 113 Kotoshogiku 216 Fujiazuma 112 Tochinoshin 121 Kakuryu 213 Ikioi 123 Kaisei 114 Kotooshu 177 Toyonoshima 124 Kotoyuki 105 Myogiryu 158 Baruto 141 Tamawashi 102 Goeido 153 Okinoumi 129 Jokoryu 116 Shohozan 127 Takarafuji 117 Masunoyama 112 Tokitenku 119 Yoshikaze 115 Tamaasuka 99 Takekaze 116 Toyohibiki 117 Wakanosato 103 Takayasu 122 Kitataiki 116 Sokokurai 95 Tochiozan 135 Aoiyama 120 Tokushoryu 97 Gagamaru 119 Sadanofuji 111 Shotenro 108 Thank you for all your critics & suggestions for the game. Obviously the x-tra points were not a decisive factor in Natsu 2013, so there were upgraded for Nagoya. To increase the number of strategies, the minimum rikishi in a team was reduced to 4. Kachikoshi points were abolished Please keep improvement suggestions coming ! GOOD LUCK Edited July 18, 2013 by Andonishiki Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Asashosakari 19,688 Posted July 2, 2013 top rikishi has his wins multiplied by 10, second by 9, third by 8, and so on. Points: Wins: 3 points Ginboshi: adds 3 extra wins to the rikishi's win count Kinboshi: adds 5 extra wins to the rikishi's win count Special prices: 12 points each Yusho: 50 points Jun-Yusho: 32 points A ginboshi is worth more than the yusho?

Andonishiki 170 Posted July 2, 2013 Asashosakari, can u elaborate on your thought ? not sure, if I understand your calculation... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Asashosakari 19,688 Posted July 2, 2013 (edited) Asashosakari, can u elaborate on your thought ? not sure, if I understand your calculation... You've written that the rikishi's wins are subject to the multiplier, which implies that the points calculation is: Points = (wins * multiplier) * 3 + bonuses. Gin/kinboshi give extra wins, so a ginboshi would be worth up to 90 points, while the yusho/sansho bonuses don't get multiplied at all. 90 points > 50 points.

Achiyama 1,247 Posted July 2, 2013 I think Asashosakari has a point here. Even I think, the total of such bout comes to 120 points. max for ginboshi ( 3 extra wins, total 4 wins * 3 points/win = 12 points, and if you have this Maegashira on spot #1, 12 multiplied by 10 = 120 points). For kinboshi the same case equals to 180 points. I think ginboshi and kinboshi should be awarded additional points only, say 20 for kinboshi and 10 for ginboshi, or whatever points you decide.

Achiyama 1,247 Posted July 2, 2013 (edited) i have another question. In case there are 2 or more Jun-yusho winners: 1.) Does every Jun-yusho winner get 32 points? or 2.) 32 points are divided by the number of Jun-yusho winners, and the resulting points are asigned to each Jun-yusho winner. Say, 2 Jun-yusho winners = 16 points for each of them, 3 Jun-yusho winners = 10.67 points for each of them, 4 Jun-yusho winners = 8 points for each of them, etc. Edited July 2, 2013 by Achiyama Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pandaazuma 1,310 Posted July 3, 2013 Andonishiki...thanks for all your hard work on the game. Much appreciated. Yes, clearly there's undue weight on the bonus points for kinboshi and ginboshi. Perhaps, like the special prizes, these could be just a single bonus score? Too late to change the rules for this basho, but this is a good game so I hope we can all (via suggestions) come up with a good balanced set of rules for Aki...and then it can reclaim its deserved spot on the Superbanzuke.

With the rules given in the OP, a ginboshi is worth 3 wins = 9 points, to be multipled by the slot value, so up to 9*10 points. I dunno, maybe that's not the intended result and there's just some serious mixing-up of "wins" and "points" in the stated rules? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nomadwolf 8 Posted July 4, 2013 I got an email notification of a post by Andonishiki about a rules update to go closer to the original rules, but it seems to have been deleted. Was this intentional? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andonishiki 170 Posted July 4, 2013 yes, that was intentional... I found out yesterday with the help of Doitsuyama, that my 'new' rules were radically changing the nature of the game... I had never 100% understood the "old" rules and I got really angry of myself being so stupid... Basic difference: "old" Gusoyama rules: add ALL points of one rikishi together (wins, yusho, kinboshi, etc) and then multiply with rank (10,9,8, etc) "new" andonishiki rules: take points for win only, then multiply with rank. Add extra points for yusho, kinboshi etc at the end.... I hereby confess, that changing the game so much was not intentional ! Further I think the old rules are better and should be reinstated.... I already had a draft ready for going back to old rules - with some slight modifications - but I deleted it, as already more than ten players have submitted teams and changing the rules now looks really bad. It might be the best, if I post my new version of rules in a seperate thread in this forum, that gamers can discuss them and install them for aki basho 2013 as Pandaazuma suggested. apologies for a the confusion it's not easy to step into gusoyama's shoes they are BIIIIIG Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Andonishiki 170 Posted July 17, 2013 (edited) It's about time.... time for a quick look at what happened so far. 48 entrants, a plus of more than 10%, THANK YOU. 28 players picked Hakuho, 12 players chose a team of only four rikishi, coz they wanted both Hakuho AND Kisenosato in their team. The below ranking is after day 11 WITHOUT any extra points for kinboshi, ginboshi. I plan to post my spreadsheet very soon.

Andonishiki 170 Posted July 18, 2013 @ Vikanohara - at current stage without calculation of extra points YES. cause Kise on 10 is not bad and your guys on 8 Oki, 7 Aoi, 5 Ozan and 4 Masunoyama all do quite well. Your total number of wins is 50 after day 12, same as Wamahada ! A third player has 50 wins, that is Taka, but he got Tochinoshin on 10 and Toyonoshima on 9, so he's only 11th overall. I'm currently working on the kinboshi / ginboshi inclusion till day 12, I expect a lot of changes after that calculation is done. stay tuned Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andonishiki 170 Posted July 18, 2013 wow. till day 12, we have seen 2 Kinboshi - Takayasu and Chiyotairyu and 7 (seven !) Ginboshi (3x Ozan, 2x Takayasu, 1x each Chiyotairyu & Aminishiki) honestly, that is MUCH more, than I have expected. the rules say, Ginboshi: adds 3 extra wins to the rikishi's win countKinboshi: adds 5 extra wins to the rikishi's win count therefore.... Takayasu 3+3+5 = adds 11 extra wins Tochiozan 3+3+3 = adds 9 extra wins Chiyotairyu 3+5 = adds 8 extra wins Aminishiki adds 3 extra wins Lets's have a look, how many times, these heros have been chosen into a SCS Team: no one has chosen Takayasu. 4 players have chosen Aminishiki 3 players have chosen Chiyotairyu 21 players have chosen Tochiozan Ranking after day 12 including kin & ginboshi: Rank Player points 1 Pandaazuma 1470 2 chishafuwaku 1446 3 Wamahada 1302 4 Kitakachiyama 1290 5 GONZABUROW 1215 6 Larissi 1209 7 Randomitsuki 1209 8 Zenjimoto 1188 9 Vikanohara 1182 10 mishashimaru 1179 11 kuroimori 1179 12 Doitsuyama 1176 13 Taka 1158 14 Gibuten 1146 15 Achiyama 1140 16 Frinkanohana 1116 17 Ganzohnesushi 1098 18 Tosahayate 1080 19 Marimo 1074 20 kamogawa 1023 21 Chisaiyama 990 22 Andonishiki 972 23 Torafujii 966 24 Jejima 957 25 Screeching Owl 951 26 Sebunshu 945 27 Gaijingai 939 28 Tikosan 933 29 Terarno 933 30 Fuseigou 930 31 Bunjiman 924 32 Konosato 915 33 Haidouzo 915 34 Marushiki 906 35 Kaiowaka 906 36 Kotononami 903 37 Fuheika 879 38 Aoyume 873 39 Yoohoo 870 40 Heikotoriki 843 41 Flohru 825 42 Kaiomitsuki 798 43 Ruziklao 795 44 Pitinosato 759 45 aderechelseamaru 756 46 Neko 732 47 Holleshoryu 708 48 Mmikaazuma 543 note: panda has Toichiozan, Ami and Chiyotairyu in his team !

Andonishiki 170 Posted July 21, 2013 Kisenosato & Kaisei scored both 11 wins, the 32 jun-yusho points need to be split in half. but a few players have both men in their team, i'm sure... as for sansho, only Takayasu gets one, but no-one has picked him. final scores to be posted within the next few hours. There might be a surprising change in the lead... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
