Jejima 1,321 Posted April 3, 2016 New banzuke for May 2016 Jakusotsu (Y1E 9-6) Y1 Andonishiki (O2W 10-5) O1 Kuroimori (O1W 9-6) O2 chishafuwaku (O1E 8-7) Tenshinhan (S1E 9-6) S1 Gurowake (S1W 9-6) Jejima (S2E 8-7) S2 Profomisakari (S2W 8-7) orandashoho (K1E 8-7) K1 Kaiomitsuki (M1E 9-6) Gernobono (M1W 8-7) M1 Ryoshishokunin (M3W 9-5-1) PhorCillic (K1W 7-7-1) M2 shimodahito (M3E 5-6-4) XiaoTan (M2E 3-8-4) M3 The Kyokai (M2W 2-13) McBugger (mz 8-5-2) M4 Comments: Jakusotsu got a Jun-Yusho in March, but this result was actually a little below 'Ozeki Quality'. So he is both commended on his March performance, but is urged to show even more in May! Andonishiki claimed the Yusho in March. He will be considered for promotion to Yokozuna with a yusho or yusho equivalent in May. Tenshinhan once again picked up a Jun-Yusho, but once again fell a little short of 'Ozeki Quality' sumo (the target he was given), so he once again misses out on promotion to Ozeki. However, we will carry this over again for May, with a little extra.... Tenshinhan will be considered for promotion to Ozeki for May if he achieves an Ozeki Quality performance or gets at least a share of the Jun-Yusho in May Profomisakari got a Jun-yusho in March, but it was fairly ordinary, so no promotion to Ozeki. However, if he gets a Yusho, or a good Jun-Yusho in May, he will be again considered for promotion to Ozeki. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hamcornheinz 839 Posted April 4, 2016 New here- what are the rules? What's an Aite? Who is Rey's father? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kuroimori 1,634 Posted April 4, 2016 Aite = opponent The goal of this game is to predict the aite/opponents of Kisenosato - but since he got promoted to Ozeki it is always some other rikishi usually from upper maegashira or lower Sanyaku (Sekiwake & Komusubi) ranks. It's a nasty little game I can tell ya... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
orandashoho 720 Posted April 4, 2016 (edited) New here- what are the rules? What's an Aite? Who is Rey's father? Hi and welcome to this most interesting but frustrating game! Aite = opponent. The object is to guess who the chosen rikishi's opponent will be, before it is announced. The game was first played with Kisenosato as the chosen rikishi. That is why the game is called GKA, which is short for "Guess Kisenosato's Aite". Well before each basho starts, there is a round of voting who the rikishi is going to be for that basho's GKA game. This game will make you think about the mysterious backroom discussions that determine the opponents of a rikishi, based on his position on the banzuke and the people above and below and of like rank that he must fight in order to get a result worthy of that position. Sometimes the Kyokai moves in mysterious ways. It is not easy to guess right -- although we had a large number of people last basho that started off with good guesses. Each basho, the rules are published again. I hope you decide to play because this is a fun game and it deserves more players! orandashoho Edited April 4, 2016 by orandashoho Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kaiomitsuki 408 Posted April 4, 2016 (edited) Who is Rey's father? Chris Augustine Ridley (X Louise Fawkner-Corbett) . . . . . . Or She is issued from a selected Jedi's DNA secretly send across the universe - just to be sure that the Force will always be alive, If all the Jedis died someday.

Jejima 1,321 Posted April 5, 2016 (edited) Who is Rey's father? Chris Augustine Ridley (X Louise Fawkner-Corbett) . . . . . . Or She is issued from a selected Jedi's DNA secretly send across the universe - just to be sure that the Force will always be alive, If all the Jedis died someday. Her genetical father is a Jedi - Guess the Jedi ? Answer december 2017 ;) My guess is she is the twin sister of Kylo Ren, so Han Solo is her father - she gets her Force abilities from her mother's side....
