For Hatsu, Flohru barely beat Chankomafuji for the most agreeable spot.  Chishafuwaku, again, was REALLY disagreeable.

Edit: Typos fixed.   Thanks to Profomisakari.

Let's get this thing going!

The first day is over.
Five players have all three bouts correct.
Because this were for all five the same bouts, they too have the same TB1.
So we must use TB2, the row of their votes.
This decides the leadership of Athenayama 

Here is the ranking list:

Day 5
Again one bout today.
Shatsume had the winner Okinoumi, Athenayana not. 
So now leads again Shatsume alone with 8 points before three pursuers with each 7.
Among them has Wolfgangho the best tiebreaker value.
And I now fell back to the penultimate place.
Tomorrow we have no game 21 bout.

Day 7   
Today were again 3 game 21 bouts.
Leader Shatsume has no one of them correct.
From the three pursuers has only Athenayama two correct picks.
He is now the sole leader with 9 points before 7 players with 8.
At the end of the ranking fights Profomisakari against Just_some_guy
with the same points and same TB1 for the red lamp,
what marks the end of the train.

Day 8
Today was only bout 6. Onosho defeated Takarafuji.
The sole leader Athenayama had him not.
So we now have a top group of five players
and Shatsume has the best tiebreaker value.
I had also guessed Takarafuji and now have the red lamp to myself.

Day 9
Why would you stop the game after day 7, @Athenayama?
After day 9 are you again the leader!
There are now three players with 10 points and you have the best TB of them.
And I have a new competitor in my fight for the red lamp: Old guy Asojima.

Day 13:
After three days without game 21 bouts, we have again one.
Shodai beat Takanosho and only 5 players had the Sekiwake.
But among them were both long time leaders Shatsume and Athenayama.
Now we have a new leadership pair with each 12 points:

Hakuryuho before Raeucherlax.

Now we wait until tomorrow if the last open bout will take place on Senshuraku.
If not, we can tomorrow announce the winner else we know him on Sunday.

I'm pretty sure Hakuryuho has this tied up already due to his x pick for bout 5.

All picks for bout 5 will be counted as correct since Wakatakakage was kyujo before the start of the basho. All will be decided on bout 7 but I'll let our Prof to detail all this as he is our beloved administrator.

No problem at all, you don't have to be sorry for that ! I didn't want to point any mistake, I just wanted to clear out things for you.

Day 15:
The game 21 is over.
The torikumi for Senshuraku says:
None of the outstanding bouts will take place yet.
Bouts 1 and 7 count as X points because both rikishi participated in the basho on at least one day.
However, nobody has guessed these fights with an X.

Bout 5, 13, 15 and 19 could not take place because one or both rikishi were kjuyo every 15 days and not in a torikumi.
According to the rules and regulations, these fights are considered correct for all players.
This happens very often in this basho because of Corona.
All players get 4 additional points, but that doesn't change the ranking.
So we have a winner.

Congratulations
Hakuryuho !

This is the end of the last game 21, which was directed by Asojima and me.
It was a good time that I wouldn't want to miss.

Thank you, Jim!

I think, you all see this like me.

When Asojima announced his departure for reasons of age,
he wrote that I would continue to lead the game,
but that I need a partner who should work as well as him.

I think we found this partner.
It's Tameiki who has been participating in our game for a few basho.
He got my evaluation Excel, played with it a little and told me that he didn't see any problems.

I look forward to working with him.

We hope to see you all as participants of the new game 21
to Haru Basho in March 2021!
You all are invited.
