Guess Kisenosato's Aite (M3W Shodai) - November 2016

Recommended Posts

What a stressful day. Not time to do a proper search of past bashos for clues so I'm going with

Day 5 - Takarafuji

and then back to Sanyaku on Day 6

If I knew no one else was going to venture a guess on Nishikigi I would have put my guess there.  Takarafuji may have been more likely, but Nishikigi wasn't that far behind and is too obvious of a guess for the NSK to be getting a kinboshi on.

No early guess since record is going to start mattering earlier than normal.

Day 6 - I see Jakusotsu has decided to join me on my limb (that I started yesterday), as I am going to double down on Kisenosato for another day.

Checking history (I do it all the time even though it never works out well for me) M3W was kyujo by day 6 in at least three bashos in recent memory... hopefully not a pattern. Has the participant in guess the aite ever gone kyujo in a basho before? If so, did we switch to a backup? I don't remember it happening when we always played an ozeki.

In case Shodai doesn't slip and hurt himself in the ofuro tonight I will choose:

Day 6: Takarafuji

If Shodai  goes kyujo, we will switch to M3E Endo.  Yes, we've had a kyujo before in the past.
