Itachi 337 Posted March 9, 2018 The Sandanme Game will run again for Haru 2018. I have been very close to giving this game a kyujo for a few basho now but since some of you continue to take the time to send me entries, I feel compelled to keep it going. There may be a delay in getting the results to you but I will set up the game, record your entries, and compile and present the results. Hopefully, I can catch up on the banzuke making as well. Thanks for your patience and continuing interest in the game!Here is the usual invitation:For the Sandanme Game, please send me your list of 15 rikishi from the usual segments of the banzuke.Sd 1-5/6-10/11-15/16-20/21-25/26-30/31-35/36-40/41-45/46-5051-60/61-70/71-80/81-90 and 91-100+ (91-100 including tsukedashi if any)Your rikishi earn points for each win, for a kachikoshi record, for leading their group, and a bonus for the best scoring rikishi on each team based on how close they were to the yusho winning record. The result is adjusted so that the best possible score gets a 15-0 result.The drone Mirai knows the future and always selects the best rikishi in each group. This shows us what the best possible score would be at each stage of the game.The drone Genzai picks the most popular rikishi from each group. This drone has tended to score well.The drone Mukashi picks the rikishi in each group who had the best record last basho. This drone isn't expected to score well but sometimes surprises us.Send your entries to me at nmatsuo@shaw.ca before any of your selections enter the dohyo for their match (and preferably a few hours before that).

Itachi 337 Posted March 27, 2018 Flohru has won both 2018 yusho. This time, he did it with the most group leading rikishi. He was one of only two to pick the yusho winning rikishi. He had the most wins. The only category he didn't finish first in was most kk where I was 2 rikishi ahead of him. Chishafuwaku also surpassed the yusho winner in kk with 11.

Itachi 337 Posted March 27, 2018 And here are the detailed results. A couple of players needed replacement rikishi. If you see a rikishi you didn't select, it should match the drone Mukashi's pick for that section. Even Mukashi needed a replacement as Chiyoraizan was a late kyujo for his first match.

Flohru 170 Posted March 27, 2018 (edited) Thanks, Itachi, I did not expect to win this time. In fact, the winning score of 10.41 points is by far the lowest of all my 18th yusho. Must have been a really difficult basho for all Sandanme gamers! Edited March 27, 2018 by Flohru Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
