Yubiquitoyama 4 Posted March 12, 2003 And a rather strange match in general :-/ But seriously, I have seen many a tentative tachi-ai, but this is definitely among the worst... See the match at: http://banzuke.com/sumomovies/haru2003/day...not_kyokushu.rm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yoavoshimaru 0 Posted March 12, 2003 Wow, really passive tachi-ai. I think Takanotsuru either wasn't focused, or thought the other guy started too quickly before he put both hands down, and so the gyoji would restart the fight. As an aside, I didn't like the commentary ("Isn't this nice?... This wouldn't be legal in the United States...") etc. Kind of stupid. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zenjimoto 40 Posted March 12, 2003 You can rest assured that this bout will feature prominently in Day 4's edition of my "Lasting Images" post to the SML! :) Cheers Zenjimoto Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hashira 0 Posted March 12, 2003 it was kind of a stupid thing for a commentator to say, but it was what i was thinking as i was watching it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kotoseiya Yuichi 3 Posted March 12, 2003 One of these lousy days of our lives both rikishi will do a simultaneous henka. How stupid would that look? (Huh?) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yoavoshimaru 0 Posted March 13, 2003 One of these lousy days of our lives I gather you weren't in a good mood when posting this message? :-/ Life is good :-) It's even better when there's a hon-basho going on :-) I like to treat tachi-ai like this one as amusing (Sigh...)

Yoavoshimaru 0 Posted March 13, 2003 That's an AWESOME avatar! :-/ :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kotoseiya Yuichi 3 Posted March 13, 2003 AWESOME avatar! Too bad IE6 doesn't show the PNG transparency effect correctly. Didn't I see some black magic correction to that somewhere? Hmm... For more see RafaelReverte.com! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yoavoshimaru 0 Posted March 14, 2003 I apologize for continuing this thread off-topic, but: - The new avatar is cool enough that I actually opened up Opera instead of my default IE 6 to see it. Nice effect ;) - However, when viewing pages on this forum with Opera (7.02 on windows 2000 server), I get a JavaScript error on every page :-( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kotoseiya Yuichi 3 Posted March 14, 2003 However, when viewing pages on this forum with Opera (7.02 on windows 2000 server), I get a javascript error on every page I have Opera 7.01 (sure, there's 7.03 already) on Windows XP Professional with no javascript problems. I believe I know what script causes it, though. As most everything will change soon anyway, I don't intend to try correct this one minor bug unless it's of great importance to someone. Contact me through the forum messenger about this issue if needed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
