Gurowake 3,915 Posted March 30, 2022 I looked back until I could find a perfectly comparable situation, and found one not terribly long ago where the promotion was made. They definitely have been getting tighter on promotions lately. http://sumodb.sumogames.de/Banzuke.aspx?b=201407#Ms 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Seems like with two open slots, Ms1e Chiyoarashi (4-2) must go up no matter what, and so would Chiyonoumi with a win to go 7-0. Could Tochimaru get left out yet again even with a 5-2? Would a 6-1 Hokuseiho be ahead of a 4-3 Tochimaru? And where would a 5-2 Hokuseiho slot in among the potential 4-3's? If I have some luck, I might have a reasonably predictive script to answer these questions by the next time the GTB submissions are due. If so I'll be sure to share my lower-Juryo and Makushita predictions 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yarimotsu 522 Posted March 30, 2022 I looked through all the 5-10 J10(east or west) scores on the database and there is no precedent for keeping up someone with this score when given a KK to use from anyone above Ms5. Churanoumi should feel incredibly grateful and Nishikawa should feel robbed. 4/14 times since Juryo became a 14-rung division, this score has survived in Juryo (including this time) at J10w (and 2/6 times at J10e). Would be seriously looking at only one of Chiyomaru/Chiyonokuni/Kagayaki getting demoted in Makuuchi if the same methodology holds there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Koorifuu 886 Posted March 30, 2022 (edited) Guys, if there's anything the last couple of years taught us is that they're absolutely not demoting Kagayaki unless it'd be truly outrageous to keep him. Edited March 30, 2022 by Koorifuu 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

To ruin a perfectly good meme, they did demote him from M14e with a 5-10 after November, and then kept Ichiyamamoto with the same score from M14w last time. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oh no. I was hoping this was related to Ichiyamamoto having more maegashira wiggle room to slide down to, but it was actually the opposite. Ichiyamamoto stayed in the very last slot of 17w but Kagayaki still went down despite that banzuke having an extra 18e cushion. My sketchy GTB sketch has been officially updated, Kagayaki's name has been blotted out. Edited March 30, 2022 by Koorifuu 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
