This game still does not work for me once I log in. I tried with another browser, and it seemed to be fine until I logged in, but obviously I can't play unless I log in. It's as though my account is not set up to access the game correctly. With Tenshinhan having said the same thing, I wonder if there are any others that have signed up at sumogames.de in the past couple years that have actually gotten it to work.

There are a few new players so something must work though. Not sure what the conditions are for this to happen (either way) but I fixed this now, and you and other interested players should be able to join the game by the "Register" link.

Hi,

Friends of that game, in which you should know, how the other players vote!

Yesterday and today the machine refused to post the overall results.

In fact, he knew these results, because he had the incomplete lists sorted exactly by these results

But we can show, that we know them also without his post:

Here ist the complete table of overall results:

I completely forgot about this game as a non-SB daily that doesn't bump its thread here every day. Oops.

You have a very constant development

Actually, now having a look at what the scores in this game look like, I have absolutely no desire to play it. It's too much about guessing what other people will pick, rather than about picking who will win. I personally have a dislike of the few Norizo Cup questions whose value depends on what other people pick, but at least that's only a tiny fraction of the game.

Not really. Just pick the winners of the last three bouts and you're fine.

Actually, I always picked the *losers* of the last three bouts and usually was fine with that.

Since the majority picks the winners (all supposedly of course) it's a matter of probability(win)*picknumber(lose) vs. (1-probability(win))*picknumber(win) and usually picking the loser ends up with the higher expected value. (Of course I never looked into the database before -or after- making my picks).

C'mon! You know that only picking winners pays off.

(factual winners, of course, not supposed winners B-) )

C'mon! You know that only picking winners pays off.

(factual winners, of course, not supposed winners B-) )

But in contrast to you I never know the factual winners before the deadline! B-)

And because my supposed winners are a stochastic thing,

I think about the the probability of the possible results.

Sometimes does this help.

Shortly before the finish the machine once more doesn't show us the totally scores.
