Ganzohnesushi 507 Posted August 25 (edited) 58 here with 29 Bulls Eye, 0 Hits. Everything correct fron Y to M4w, but then... Expecting 11-4 or so. Not that bad. Ganzohnesushi Edited August 25 by Ganzohnesushi Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Reonito 1,340 Posted August 25 Also 58, every guess was either a bullseye or a complete miss. I have some many questions. Is this a new banzuke committee? Did anyone even consider Nishikifuji staying? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Did anyone even consider Nishikifuji staying? Elsewhere I offered the half-serious theory a few weeks ago that the ridiculously small demotions we've been seeing the last few years are their attempt to have some sort of kosho replacement, the logic being that "MK = was more injured than the average rikishi" holds true in most cases these days.

Kaito 275 Posted August 25 No confirmation email, but 56 here I think. I was my own worst enemy. Flipped the S and K ranks. Flipped Kagayaki and Sadanoumi against the math...thought it was probably dumb at the time and definitely would've taken it back after the deadline. Tried reversing Hokutofuji/Nishikigi/Ryuden against the math too, so they'd all get reasonable demotions...I knew I didn't want to put Takayasu or Onokatsu above them and couldn't see Hokutofuji staying in place. But then I got Takayasu and Onokatsu the wrong way around anyway for 0. I was pretty sure about Shirokuma's placement at least. GTB aside, I hate Nishikifuji holding rank. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kintamayama 44,391 Posted August 25 Here are the results. As I said, crazy banzuke, and even nuttier results. For the first time ever, we have a winner due to an earlier entry.. Goshobiyama and CaptSmarta$$ have the exact same guess going into 17E. Both got that one wrong, as everyone, including the banzuke making committee, did. So by getting in the earlier entry, Goshobiyama gets his first yusho and in doing so is also at the top of the non-Banzuke. Congratulations! Milestones: Jejima- 140th basho (!!!!!) Jakusotau - 120th basho ! Ciyonosawa - 90th basho Wamahada- 90th basho Screeching Owl- 60th basho Kishikaisei- 40th basho Wakudoyama - 30th basho Kyotomo - 20th basho. Supizakage- 20th basho Simon- 20th basho Balon - 20th basho 206 players, 23 new players. Thank you for playing and see you next time. Special thanks to Andoreasu and Doitsuyama for existing.. And now-- on with the Ba-show!! You want to see how you did? Really? Then go here.. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
