TheGunbaiHolder 34 Posted October 10, 2023 @Jejima I'm in, of course. Once in ozumo, forever in. Thanks! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kaminariyuki 519 Posted October 13, 2023 Ho sure, Joann enjoys seeing me plummet through the rankings, I suspect. Count me in. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jejima 1,498 Posted October 30, 2023 (edited) This is the current state of play. Two Ozekis have yet to turn up. I will start the draw today - but as ever, late entries are allowed, right up and until shonichi. But I would prefer much earlier if possible.

Jejima 1,498 Posted October 30, 2023 (edited) We have four mae-zumo players, which is a decent recruitment. As of this basho onwards, mae-zumo players will be represented by rikishi in Jonokuchi. But first let's put the newbies into this random list generator, and shuffle..... mz nelimw mz Kaiowaka mz Katoosho mz Fashiriteta Next, I will spin this wheel with all of the Jonokuchi rikishi on it.....

Jejima 1,498 Posted October 30, 2023 nelimw will be represented by jk10W Agazumazakura. At 167 cm (5 foot 5 inches) and 99 kgs (218 lbs), this is one of the smaller rikishi. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jejima 1,498 Posted October 30, 2023 (edited) Kaiowaka's hopes will depend on jk5E Datenomori. Datemori is 191cm (6 foot 3 inches) and 180 kg (397 lbs) - so, one of the bigger rikishi! Edited October 30, 2023 by Jejima 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jejima 1,498 Posted October 30, 2023 (edited) Katoosho has drawn.... jk16W Fujihara. Fujihara only turned up for one bout last basho (day 13) - is he active this basho? Or will we have to draw a replacement for Katoosho later on? Edited November 9, 2023 by Jejima Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jejima 1,498 Posted October 30, 2023 Fashiriteta has got jk16E Daikinryu. Although Daikinryu was listed as mae-zumo last basho, he has been around for over a year, and rose as high as Sandanme. If he turns up this basho, he could be a good draw. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jejima 1,498 Posted October 30, 2023 Onto Juryo.... There were 7 items in your list. Here they are in random order: J3W Fujiko J3E Rokudenashi J2E WAKATAKE J1E Kaminariyuki J2W Katooshu J5E Ack! J4W TheGunbaiHolder Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jejima 1,498 Posted October 30, 2023 My wife, J3W Fujiko, will take J9E Takahashi. Takahashi has yet to 'heat' the wall - 8 KKs in-a-row. Safe pick? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jejima 1,498 Posted October 30, 2023 J3E Rokudenashi receives S1W Wakamotoharu. The Sekiwake completes a year in sanyaku - and has had 7 kks in-a-row. Looks like our Juryo division will be interesting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jejima 1,498 Posted October 30, 2023 J2E WAKATAKE has drawn J6E Chiyoshoma. It's been 3 years since Chiyoshoma was last in Juryo... He's too good for this rank? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jejima 1,498 Posted October 30, 2023 J1E Kaminariyuki will be championed by M7E Hokuseiho. Hokuseiho is surely a sanyaku regular for the future. Ranked just outside of the joi-jin, this could be a basho to rack up a good double digit score. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jejima 1,498 Posted October 30, 2023 J2W Katooshu has secured K1W Hokutofuji. It's been over 3 years since Hokutofuji was ranked in sanyaku. Lots of decent picks are being drawn by Juryo players! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jejima 1,498 Posted October 30, 2023 J5E Ack! has M6W Takanosho. Takanosho is another decent pick, I think. Hedoes seem to alternate MK and KK bashos of late.... Good news for Ack! is that this basho should be a 'KK'. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jejima 1,498 Posted October 30, 2023 J4W TheGunbaiHolder has been given..... O2W Hoshoryu! Yet another rikishi with the potential to go big this basho! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jejima 1,498 Posted October 30, 2023 That ends the Juryo draw - unless @Terarno and @Gusoyamamake late entries. Time for the Makunouchi draw, and here is the randomised list.....

Jejima 1,498 Posted October 30, 2023 M2W Jakusotsu claims J1W Kotoshoho. Kotoshoho has dropped out of Makunouchi, after four MKs in-a-row. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jejima 1,498 Posted October 30, 2023 M12W Djodjoyoshi hopes go with J7W Tamashoho. At the age of 30, Tamashoho almost made it Makunouchi this year.... Still time to do so! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jejima 1,498 Posted October 30, 2023 M3W Suwihuto needs something from M10W Kotoeko. Kotoeko usually ends up 8-7 at around this level. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
