I could create a graph with all 400 players who are in the points. Complete coverage, complete chaos!!

Standings after Day 9: What a pity that so few people are going to read this, but we are currently witnessing a number of minor and major miracles. Case in point: according to my projections, Andoreasu currently leads the Oracle standings by 11 points - I have never witnessed such a leading margin before. Let's see whether he can defend this lead to the yusho. The major miracle this basho is of course Frinkanohana. He was at almost 104 points yesterday, and today he decided to defy the concept of regression to the middle, increasing his tally to 109.93. For comparison, it's like a person exactly standing at the North Pole and deciding to simply go further north... Outstanding! His main contender thus far (Oyama) plummeted in the standings, and lost almost 20 points today (68.92). Asapedroryu made some waves (48.30) while Gonzaburow (35.90), Andoreasu (33.33), Hogashi (32.43) and Kachikoshi (32.20) constitute the 30+ club. In the Worlds, it was an off day for five of the six top players (the exception, again, being Frinkanohana).

Nakabi standings: Bam - what an epic fight between Oyama and Frinkanohana for the Green Mawashi! The Frink had a sensational day on a sensational basho so far, and he now tops the standings with an incredible 103.96 projected point. And I guess that - if the basho were over now - Oyama would set a new record for the highest non-winning score ever (87.50). Six players hover between 30 and 40 points, gazing at the two stars on the November sky: Asapedroryu (37.37), ScreechingOwl (36.70), Susanoo (34.75), Hogashi (34.33), andonishiki (31.28), and Kachikoshi (30.67). In the World Championship, lofty Frinkanohana steals 3rd place from Oyama. Susanoo stays in 5th while ScreechingOwl drops to 6th. Kitakachiyama, Norizo, Kobashi, and Bunbukuchagama round out the Top 10. President Osca is not amused and has asked Elon to hack the unhackable Superbanzuke website. :)

You can actually see something in this graph? Hats off!

Day 7 Standings: My nightly update contained a relatively major oopsie - I assigned Oyama's jump to the lead of UDH to Ottotto. In fact, Oyama was in the Masters lead after Day 6 and also already in 5th place for the World Championship. With that out of the way, Oyama improved even more today and now leads the Masters race with a confident 80.60 points. Frinkanohana (61.64) is the only other contender at the moment. Other players in the 30+ range are Pandaazuma (39.12), ScreechingOwl (36.33), Asapedroryu (36.02), and Andoreasu (32.10). The Panda is doing Panda things, and that's why the gap between him and Kaito has become larger than ever. In fact, I think it is safe to say that the question of who gets the trophy has become a bore. There is a more exciting battle for third place. Currently, Oyama has the upper hand over ScreechingOwl and Susanoo (who had quite a disastrous day).

Very Brief Update after Day 6: Masters Standings: 1. Frinkanohana 58.81 2. Oyama 57,25 3. Susanoo 48.13 4. Andonishiki 35.29 5. Andoreasu 35.08 And the World Championship graph.

Hi there, the graph is finally there! The reason for the Hoshitori Game hiccup was a player who somehow managed to pick an ineligible rikishi, thus interfering with the computation of the standings. Now that this is settled, we have (for now) complete coverage of all Superbanzuke games. Just for completeness, here are the current Top 5 for Salarycap Sumo and the adjusted Top 5 for Oracle: Salarycap Sumo: 1. Susanoo 540 2. Gusoyama 528 3. Oyama 522 4. Hippchek 510 5. Doreikishi 498 Sekitori Oracle: 1. Frinkanohana 621 1. Ruziklao 621 3. Beeftank 619 3. Wamahada 619 3. Kachikoshi 619 In the Kyushu Masters Series, the stellar November campaign for Frinkanohana continues, and he storms into the leading position (73.14). Oyama had a tough day and loses first place (45.92). Susanoo led through the first three days of the basho and now finds himself in third place (40.58). Kachikoshi is the only other player in 30+ points territory (32.00). Pandaazuma rounds out the Top 5 at 27.50 points. The Panda is also poised to win his sixth World Champion title. Second place for Kaito is practically locked in. 2022 World Champion Susanoo is in a comfortable position for 3rd place but should keep up with his strong basho performance. From there on it gets quite volatile. Red hot Frinkanohana jumps into 4th place while ScreechingOwl completes the upper tier of the Top 10. 6th to 12th place are currently separated by less than 10 points, so obviously everything is possible there. Currently within the Top 10 are Bill (6th), reigning champion Oskahanada (7th), Kobashi (8th), 4-time World Champion Norizo (9th), and Bunbukuchagama (10th). Kitakachiyama and Oyama are close behind but out of the Top 10. I only create a new line in the graph when someone new enters the Top 10. That being said, we currently have two players who have always been out of the Top 10 but above 100 points. Hence, Kintamayama (109.57) and Flohru (102.57) are not on the chart. I have no idea whether there will be an update tomorrow. I will be busy all day and might return to my computer way after midnight. I might even be in a state of small to moderate inebriation, so let's see...

Day 4 Masters: 1. Oyama 68.59 2. Susanoo 61.47 3. Frinkanohana 61.03 4. Andonishiki 34.26 5. Pandaazuma 30.81 Exciting race for the top. It's rare to have three players in 60+ points territory. Meanwhile, Pandaazuma has entered the Top 5, turning the decision about who becomes World Champion into quite a bore. Day 4 World Championship: 1. Pandaazuma 267.03 2. Kaito 226.69 3. Susanoo 188.47 4. Oyama 146.79 5. ScreechingOwl 140.77

I think we didn't have this in ages... the Superbanzuke is ready before the basho has started! Thanks to all the gamesmasters for making data available so soon. Enjoy the standings. And enjoy the basho!

Hullo. The Aki Masters are in the bags. Lookee here (permalink). Kitakachiyama won his sixth career Green Mawashi so he is now all-time fifth in that department. With yusho in Oracle and TTT as well as a jun-yusho in Sumo Game he managed to keep Pandaazuma at bay. Andonishiki won his second career shukun-sho (the first one was in 2018) for yusho in Hoshitori Game and Sekitori-Toto. Pandaazuma received the other two sansho. His fourth career gino-sho was awarded for getting close to 20 points in his worse gaming category. Moreover, he also received his 14th career kanto-sho with eight scores among the Top 10. He is now tied in Fighting Spirit Prizes with Flohru. Congratulations to all the winners! Also new: current standings of the World Championships (lookee here). The trophy will be decided between Pandaazuma and Kaito. Lots of players are involved in the fight for the remaining places among the Top 10.

Players gonna play play play play play play... Makushita Game! This is a cordial invitation to take part in the next edition of Makushita Game, one of the nerdiest places in the sumiverse. We even have a banzuke in place (and time), so what keeps you from participating? https://makushita.sumogames.de/

The basho is in the bags, and at the top it was dominated by players from the lower ranks this time. In an incredibly high-scoring tournament, M6 Papayasu emerges victorious. He is followed by M8 Andrasoyamawaka and M13 Holleshoryu. The average score among high-ranking players (down to M4) was 9.63 win points. Therefore, you have to subtract 2 full points from your win point tally and round down half-points. As a consequence, the KK line runs between Itachiyama (KK) and Konya ga Yamada (MK). The lower-ranked players also managed an impressive 9.03 win points on average. Therefore, you have to subtract 1.5 win points from your tally and round down half-points. shimodahito is the last with KK, Kitanoyama the first with MK. Sansho: Only Andrasoyamawaka and Wamahada picked yusho winner Hatsuyama, and as Wamahada went MK, the shukun-sho goes to the Hungarian player. Papayasu scored 69 wins and easily wins the kanto-sho in addition to the yusho. Holleshoryu picks up the gino-sho with 16.86 points. His key contributor is Asakoki who netted him 6(!) full points. Thanks for playing! I hope to see many returns in November. :)

Hi there, I will not be able to do anything sumo-related until Saturday, so I decided to publish a non-complete Aki Superbanzuke right now and before my absence. 18 out of 19 SB games had an Aki Banzuke ready. Interestingly, the one missing out is Chaingaing. That's kind of weird as the ranking for that game is usually and automatically created and uploaded at the end of the previous basho. I have contacted Doitsuyama about it; and I also PM'ed Andoreasu (he hasn't visited the forum since). So the Aki Superbanzuke is based on the Nagoya rankings for Chaingang (with a 20% demerit) but on the Aki rankings of all other games. See if, where, and how you stand at this place (permalink). Enjoy the basho!!

I tried to make the Superbanzuke site more "modern" a few years ago, but my utter lack of both design skills and HTML skills prevent me from having something better to offer. If someone, anyone with HTML skills and interest in redesigning the site would contact me, I'd be more than happy.

Good local time! Results for the 2024 Nagoya Masters (permalink) are in. Japanese gaming legend Norizo wins his 12th career Green Mawashi, his first triumph in more than four years with strong 70 points. Among his many accomplishments in Nagoya 2024 were three yusho (Odd Sumo, Sekitori Oracle, Sekitori Quad) and a double-digit finish in Tippspiel. Terarno wins his second career shukun-sho for finishing 2nd with strong 57.00 points and two yusho (Tippspiel, Juryo Game). Moreover, Terarno wins his first ever gino-sho with 25 points in his worse gaming category. The sansho are rounded out by the fifth career kanto-sho for Oskahanada. He finished among the Top 10 in seven different games (for a meager points total below 20). Congratulations to all the winners! Also uploaded are the Standings of the 2024 World Championships. Kaito and Pandaazuma look like they are battling it out for the trophy this year. ScreechingOwl, Susanoo, Norizo, and Oskahanada are in triple digits but trail considerably behind the leading duet.

I apologize deeply and profusely to Kajiyanosho and will reflect on my past, present, and future mistakes!

Much to no one's surprise, we'll have another round of Makushita Game running this July. The banzuke was carefully crafted by me, and even more carefully sent to Doitsuyama. Alas, it is not uploaded yet. If you think you can play then you can play at https://makushita.sumogames.de/ That would make me happy.

Another basho is in the bags, and another yusho is in Oskanohana's particular bag. After winning Natsu Basho as well, he will be promoted to Yokozuna on the Aki Banzuke, congrats! Over long stretches of the basho, he battled it out with Asashosakari but managed to keep him at bay. In the upper group (down to M4), scoring was very high, so in order to see your final W/L record you have to subtract 1.5 points from your score and round down half-points. This means that the KK/MK line runs between Ozeki Flohru and kadoban-Ozeki Ganzohnesushi. And that of course means that Ganzohnesushi will be demoted to Sekiwake with a chance for re-promotion. In the lower group (M5 downwards), scoring was much more modest. Here, you have to add 0.5 points to your win point tally and round down half-points. The KK/MK line runs between shin-deshi Kajiyanosho and Wamahada. The shukun-sho scoring was interesting as there were two players who picked yusho winner Daiseizan, but they both went MK. So the Outstanding Performance Award goes to Terukaze for picking the 6-1 trio of Kiryuko, Aonishiki, and Kurohimeyama. The kanto-sho goes to Asashosakari (70 wins) And Terukaze also wins the gino-sho (19.50 points). His main contributors to the Technique Prize were Chiyomaru (4 points), Obara, Onojo, and Kurohimeyama (2 points apiece). Thanks for playing! I am hoping for many happy returns in Aki! :)

Sorry if that has been covered before, but what is the soundbite at the beginning of the Nagoya videos? I definitely know it, but don't know where from. "The Shining", maybe?

Hiya, the newest and latest edition of the Superbanzuke has been uploaded just minutes ago. Pandaazuma is back at Y1e, meaning that the universe is finally restored again. :) See how you stand (if you stand) at the usual place.

It took a little longer than usual, but with the help of Bunbukuchagama we also now have the Final Standings for the Natsu 2024 Masters Series. Natsu 2024 Masters Series It's hard to believe, and yet it's true. Pandaazuma hasn't won a Green Mawashi in almost five years. But with a commanding performance (96.30) in Natsu 2024 he received his 13th career yusho. The Panda won GTB and Sekitori-Toto, got the jun-yusho in Hoshitori Game and Bench Sumo for a total of 11 scores this basho. The Inimitable is back in shape! Bunbukuchagama had a first breakout basho in a relatively new career, winning his first ever sansho. He receives the shukun-sho for finishing second overall (with yusho in Hoshitori Game and Ozumo Bingo) and also nets the kanto-sho for scoring in eight different games. In terms of Technique Prizes, congrats go to Susanoo for getting his 10th career gino-sho (more than 23.5 points in pre-basho games, but also more than 21 points in daily games). He now has the solo lead in this category again. Congratulations to all the winners! 2024 World Championship Standings His last Green Mawashi was before the pandemic, but now that the pandemic is over, it's time for the Pandaemic again. Pandaazuma (165.52) takes over the lead in the World Championship from Kaito (157.27). Susanoo in 3rd place has crossed the 100 points mark as well (106.00).

And finally solved. :)

Yes, it's duly noted. Unfortunately, I have serious computer issues that will take a while to be solved. I will update the standings in time.

On the overall results page (Hoshitori Results for Natsu 2024, Day 15 (sumogames.de)), sansho bonuses are not added. For instance, on the overall page you lead with 1032 points. But when I add the total points on your individual page (Hoshitori Results for Bunbukuchagama in Natsu 2024 (sumogames.de)), I arrive at 1095 points.

Hi there, you might be waiting for the Superbanzuke Masters results. While SCS results for Natsu are now in, the Hoshitori Game standings are still not reflecting actual points. I wrote Doitsuyama earlier this week, but so far I got no response. As I am busy and lazy in equal measures, I was wondering whether someone would volunteer in computing the actual Top 10 of Hoshitori Game. When you copy individual results into an Excel sheet, you can add the actual points and derive at the correct results. Otherwise, we would have to wait for the day that Doitsuyama will upload the correct Hoshitori Game standings by himself.
