Seseragi 12 Posted July 27 (edited) Hi! I'm Seseragi. I started watching sumo in November, keeping up with the Kyushu basho. One of NHK World's catchup videos appeared in my Youtube feed and I've been following sumo ever since! One thing I enjoy about sumo is the storylines and narratives that can develop over the course of Bashos. Like when people are on Yokozuna watch or whether this can finally be the time someone in particular wins a yusho. I've also been getting in to the fantasy games like Kachi Clash, Guess the Banzuke and Sumo Game, and for this basho I've tried out the Super Banzuke games (Chain Gang, ISP, Roto). Hoping to try some of the forum games in the future! It's good there are still traditional forums around! Edited July 27 by Seseragi 12 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Xiongmao 20 Posted July 28 You should give the Superbanzuke games a go as there is a basho Masters contest as well as an annual world championship. Go here and click on the 'new to sumo gaming' link: Super Banzuke 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Go here and click on the 'new to sumo gaming' link: Super Banzuke For Sumogames.de games, I started Chain Gang, ISP and Roto Sumo this basho with very mixed results! I've been doing GTB and Sumo Game for a couple of bashos now already. For some reason I don't think I've been approved on Bench Sumo yet (options are greyed out) despite signing up months ago. I'll definitely add a couple more into my rotation for September (Probably the Hoshitoris). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've mainly benefitted from the low-makushita players who set a default 10 and then don't change it for the whole basho. I'm sure as I get higher ranked it'll get much tougher.
