WAKATAKE 2,681 Posted November 1, 2020 East vs West November 2020 rolls into town! I am glad to say that the reception was very warm for this game in its debut last basho, and I'm hoping we can attract more players this basho. The goal of East vs West is as follows: Pick which side (east or west) you think will win more bouts each day of the basho for all six divisions. The scoring is similar to how Turn the Tide works. You must have a clear majority in order to score a win (4 correct guesses or more). The player with the best record at the end of the basho will be declared the yusho winner! Rules 1. Pick the side of each division you think will win the most matches for the given day of the basho. Your two choices will be the east or west sides 2. If you picked the winning side, you will receive a correct guess for the division. You must have at least 4 correct guesses in order to score a win for the day (3-3 will result in a loss) a. Should the east and west of a division split the matches evenly, this will be counted as a correct guess 3. Kyujo matches are counted towards the total if they end up on the winning side 4. Players will submit their picks via the Survey Monkey link. In the case that Survey Monkey does not work, a template form will be posted in the game thread to use 5. Because this game involves all six divisions, the deadline for submitting your daily picks will be 8am JST (3pm PST/6pm EST) 6. The player with the best 15 day record will be declared the yusho winner 7. In the case of two or more players having the same score, we will go to a tiebreaker Bonus Game (Gino-Sho/Technique Prize, must have kachi-koshi) 1. The bonus game will be used as one of the factors for the tiebreaker 2. Players will pick how many matches they think the winning sides will have. This is regardless of which side wins, and also does not have any affect on the players' main game picks 3. You will pick from the following categories a. Makuuchi b. Juryo c. Makushita joi (last 5 matches of makushita) 4. The lowest margin of error will be used for the tiebreaker 5. At the end of the basho, the lowest margin of error winners for each category will be announced 6. The player with the lowest combined margin of error for all three categories will win the Gino-Sho 7. Margin of error is cumulative, so whether you are under or over the daily result, (-1 or +2) these will added as regular margin of error Tiebreaker 1. 5-0 guess for the Makushita joi from the bonus game 2. Most 6-0 guesses for the basho 3. Most 6-0 & 5-1 guesses for the basho 4. Lowest combined margin of error for the bonus game 5. Bullseye for the bonus game (no margin of error) in the following order a. Makuuchi b. Juryo c. Makushita 6. Most correct guesses per division in the following order a. Makuuchi b. Juryo c. Makushita d. Sandanme e. Jonidan f. Jonokuchi 7. Best combined correct guess record for Makuuchi, Juryo, Makushita 8. Best combined correct guess record for Sandanme, Jonidan, Jonokuchi 9. Earliest submissions Sansho (Special Prizes) Shukun-Sho: Most 6-0 daily guesses (must have kachi-koshi) Kanto-Sho: Most correct guesses for Makushita, Sandanme, Jonidan, Jonokuchi divisions (must have kachi-koshi) Gino-Sho: Lowest combined margin of error from the bonus game (must have kachi-koshi) Chanko-Sho: Lowest margin of error for Makuuchi in the bonus game (KK not required) Sukiyaki-Sho: Lowest margin of error for Juryo in the bonus game (KK not required) Gyudon-Sho: Lowest margin of error for Makushita in the bonus game (KK not required) Kinboshi (main game): Lone 6-0 daily guess Kinboshi (bonus game): Lone Bullseye in Makuuchi (no margin of error) Ginboshi (bonus game): Lone Bullseye in Juryo (no margin of error) Diamond Star: 5-0 guess for the Makushita Joi In case you are not able to make the daily submissions because of the deadline, please feel free to submit a default template using the link below so that you will not be MIA. https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/5S6STNB See you all in the basho!

Athenayama also scored a kinboshi in the bonus game as he was the only one to get a bullseye on the number of matches that the winning side scored. This gives him a TB advantage.

WAKATAKE 2,681 Posted November 13, 2020 Welcome back everyone! I am now posting again starting from day 7. I will have to evaluate what we will do about days 4-6, but most of the field had submitted default picks and we did have one forum member that was able to access the links on here to submit for day 4-6, so more than likely I will counting those days. I will let you know what I do later.
