Hoshotakamoto 259 Posted October 28, 2024 i think i'm going intai in solidarity with takakeisho. i'm sure a 6-9 would have kept me around at M17w though if I played Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jejima 1,415 Posted October 28, 2024 Very sad to see Hoshotakamoto's intai - he was on the brink of a very promising Sekitori Sweepstake career, but chanko restaurants do need their cooks..... I'll start the draw shortly..... We are still missing some players - but they can join in later, if they make their intentions known. Also, are there any potential mae-zumo players out there, to give Djodjoyoshi a run for his money? @Tetsuba, @Suwihuto, @Takanorappa, @Kotononami, @WAKATAKE, @Terarno, @nelimw, @Kajiyanosho, @bettega Makunouchi Bunbukuchagama ACTIVE O1 Tetsuba (O1E, 0-0-15) Ryoshishikunin ACTIVE S1 Karasukurai ACTIVE Yarimotsu ACTIVE S2 sumojoann ACTIVE K1 Gusoyama ACTIVE K2 lilfox ACTIVE Holleshoryu ACTIVE M1 Suwihuto (M6E, 11-4) Baku ACTIVE M2 Jakusotsu SCONE RaeucherLax ACTIVE M3 Fujiko ACTIVE Takanorappa (K2E, 6-9) M4 Ganzohnesushi ACTIVE Kaito ACTIVE M5 Jejima HAGGIS Rokudenashi ACTIVE M6 Reonito ACTIVE Flohru ACTIVE M7 chishafuwaku ACTIVE TheGunbaiHolder ACTIVE M8 Hakuhonofan ACTIVE Wamahada ACTIVE M9 Sumo Spiffy ACTIVE Kimyama ACTIVE M10 Sakura SCONE Kaminariyuki ACTIVE M11 Fashiriteta ACTIVE Kotononami (M10W, 7-8) M12 WAKATAKE (M13E, 8-7) Joaoiyama ACTIVE M13 Meletyoshi ACTIVE Gaijingai ACTIVE M14 Oshirokita ACTIVE Ack!

Jejima 1,415 Posted October 28, 2024 Okay, let's start the draw.... No need to randomise the Mae-zumo entrants. Djodjoyoshi receives..... JK14E Raiho. Raiho has had only one (losing) bout in his past four bashos.... BUT he was ranked in Makushita a year ago. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jejima 1,415 Posted October 28, 2024 That concludes the Mae-zumo draw for now - but any new/returning aspiring player can get a late entry to the game. Just say that you want to play. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jejima 1,415 Posted October 28, 2024 There are currently eleven active players in Juryo. Let's get random!

Jejima 1,415 Posted October 28, 2024 J2W Kaba (my youngest son) gets.... M12W Sadanoumi. Sadanoumi has managed KKs in his last three Kyushu (November) bashos. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jejima 1,415 Posted October 28, 2024 J1E Chanko Thief nicks M8W Gonoyama. Gonoyama is on a three basho losing streak - but surely he has the quality to perform at this rank? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jejima 1,415 Posted October 28, 2024 J5E Iwadanuki is being granted O1E Kotozakura. The first of the big guns to be allocated! Kotozakura is on a 13 KK win-streak.... Although last basho he only scraped an 8-7... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jejima 1,415 Posted October 28, 2024 J4E Taikoubana taketh M7E Endo. Endo has recently turned 34 - but still seems to be genki. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jejima 1,415 Posted October 28, 2024 J7E Joputosu will be championed by M11E Tamawashi. Tamawashi will be celebrating his 40th birthday during the basho! (November 16th). Over the hill? His last four bashos have all ended up with 7-8 MKs.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jejima 1,415 Posted October 28, 2024 J6W Athenayama will be keeping a close eye on..... M11W Meisei. Last basho, Meisei had a 7-day losing streak in the first week.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jejima 1,415 Posted October 28, 2024 J3E Gernobono gets O1W Hoshoryu. It's another big gun! It has been three years since Hoshoryu last had an MK. Good pick for Gernobono? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jejima 1,415 Posted October 28, 2024 J4W Chijanofuji will support M5W Kotoshoho. Last November, Kotoshoho won the yusho! (The Juryo yusho, with a 12-3 record.) NB Despite getting this far, without any Juryo rikishi being drawn, they are all available on the wheel. Sometimes randomness happens that way.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jejima 1,415 Posted October 28, 2024 J6E Kachikoshi will be hoping for a kachikoshi from J10E Onosho. ...and that is the first Juryo rikishi drawn for this basho. Onosho has won one bout in his last two outings, spending 21 days on the sidelines. Will he be on the day one torikumi? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jejima 1,415 Posted October 28, 2024 J1W Katooshu receives J12W Tochitaikai. Tochitaikai has returned to Juryo after one basho in Makushita. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jejima 1,415 Posted October 28, 2024 J3W Kaiowaka has drawn J4E Tamashoho. This Mongolian's highest ever rank was J1W - this might be his chance (with a decent KK) to break into Makunouchi for the first time? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jejima 1,415 Posted October 28, 2024 (edited) That concludes the Juryo draw for now - but @Terarno, @nelimw, @Kajiyanosho and @bettega are invited to join the fun. Just say that you want to play Edited October 28, 2024 by Jejima 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
