Achiyama 1,224 Posted December 18, 2015 (edited) Hello Sumo Fans and Gamers and Supporters of TUG, Although there is still a lot of time until the start of the First basho of 2016, I am posting the Invitation for TUG earlier as I am traveling on vacation to Bulgaria and there won't be a lot of time when I come back. I want to thank all participants in TUG during 2015 and I hope the number of the supporters and participants in the game will increase during 2016. I won't have time to work on the creation of the Entry Form for Hatsu 2016, so I'll use the same approach as for 2015 Kyushu, utilizing the Excel spreadsheet created by Gurowake. The Torikumi and the Standings Tables will be posted on Sumoforum. Hopefully, we'll be able to create the automated Entry Form for 2016 Haru basho. As for 2016 Hatsu basho you have to send me your daily picks the same way as before: It's up to you to decide how to submit your entries. Choose one of the following options: 1.) Post them daily on Sumoforum; 2.) Use the PM (private message) on the Sumoforum. If you chose to use this method, please, use Randomitsuki's method. Once you Compose your message, every day open the same PM and reply to it with your new pick. In this way the Storage space is much smaller than if you submit every day different PMs. 3.) You can send your pick with an e-mail to angelstoyanov55(at)yahoo(dot)com Important: After Day 14 a Cut line (like in Golf) will be anounced. All Gamers who have a mathematical chance to win the Yusho or the Jun Yusho, will make the Cut. For all these Gamers it will be MANDATORY to send their last pick on Senshuraku either by PM or e-mail. If somebody, who makes the Cut, has a problem with sending a PM or e-mail, he/she will be allowed his/her pick to be sent by a friend, who doesn't have a problem with these methods, otherwise their picks, if posted on the Sumoforum WON'T COUNT, even if they are wins. Here are the Rules of the Game after a slight revision (click on the text below to zoom the text): Happy Holidays to all Sumo fans!
