Sumo Spiffy 535 Posted July 17 Possible dissenting opinion: I don't think there should be a bonus for a perfect guess if it's just to make it more "fair". The idea of the game is that picking someone who's been getting blown out by their opponent that day is often risky, so it's reasonable that picking two high-point options can score more than a perfect day of lower-scoring rikishi. However, I don't pay that close attention to whether or not fire-and-forget on high-point picks is an overpowered strategy. If it is, then this idea makes more sense. Alternatively—since perfect days are hard to come by—if making lower-scoring options more appealing seems like a good idea, maybe a simpler change like increasing the bonus to four or five would serve the purpose just as well. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I decreased the bonus from four to three because I felt like that bonjus points carried too much weight. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
