Tetsuba 32 Posted September 22, 2023 Who did see Atamifuji v Abi coming? Sometimes I don't get what they're doing at all... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sumo Spiffy 535 Posted September 22, 2023 (edited) Seven 8-4s and one 9-3, and none of them face each other except Hokuseiho and Tsurugisho. Wild. Edit: There's also a big headscratch with how they lined up the contenders who pulled sanyaku opponents. Onosho got the top guy available, which makes sense. Kotonowaka gets Kinbozan and Nishkigi gets Mitakeumi... but then Tobizaru gets Takayasu? Edited September 22, 2023 by Sumo Spiffy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Seiyashi 4,071 Posted September 22, 2023 Could be anyone by now, but going out on two limbs for: Day 15: Hokuseihō. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sumo Spiffy 535 Posted September 22, 2023 My day 14 strategy didn't account for the one person who could slide ahead of me nailing the pick. I've devised enough options to account for whatever Reo and Guro decide to do. I definitely don't like them all equally, but I have them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Reonito 1,335 Posted September 22, 2023 So may permutations depending on Day 14 results. Okay, not going to overthink it: 15. Wakamotoharu Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Reonito 1,335 Posted September 22, 2023 Eh, I still think it was the right probability call, even though I had drawn out a path that led to Kinbozan and mulled it for a while. Process over outcome Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sumo Spiffy 535 Posted September 22, 2023 You two took the first two options I came up with. I only found one other that looked plausible in at least a handful of scenarios. 15. Onosho 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
