XiaoTan Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 I'd say Kotomitsuki goes kyujo at 2-7 so I am going for Tenho. Neko
Jejima Posted January 19, 2009 Author Posted January 19, 2009 Am I too late? I'm for Kyokutenho. No, plenty of time :-D
Chisaiyama Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 Always the contrarian, I say it's that other wild and kaze guy: Day 11: Yoshikaze
Sokkenaiyama Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 (edited) Day 11 - Kotomitsuki Edited January 19, 2009 by Sokkenaiyama
Yaochoyama Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 Who knows what the torikumi lads will do with Kotomitsuki now (Shaking head...) I noticed that when ozeki Konishiki went 3-12 one basho back in '88, they had him facing the yokozunas on Day 8 and 11. With 3 other contending ozekis, I've got to thing they'll get the Hakuho-Mickey match out of the way so: Day 11 - Kyokutenho
Jejima Posted January 20, 2009 Author Posted January 20, 2009 (edited) The day 11 foe is M1W Kyokutenho. On an aside note.... My Ozeki conspiracy theory.... Kotomisuki is scheduled to face Harumafuji on day 11 - but I bet he doesn't (Laughing...) A loss today to Asashoryu - then kyujo - then a much needed fusensho victory for Harry the Hamster - who can still get his KK. (Unless of course, Kotooshu is still in the Yusho race if/when they meet on day 15 - in which case a KK would be less certain). Yaochoyama was one of us who guessed correctly - and so he retains his one win lead. Once again, he is honoured by being invited to make an early pick. Sokkenaiyama (S1E 3-7-1) S Jejima (S1W 4-7) Maguroyama (K1E 2-9) K Harry (K1W 0-5-6) XiaoTan (M1E 3-8) M1 Yaochoyama (M2W 5-6) Holleshoryu (M2E 4-7) M2 Mae-zumo ilovetochinoshin (mz 3-5-3) Chisaiyama (mz 2-7-2) Profomisakari (mz 2-8-1) Oshirokita (mz 2-7-2) Kisenosato's opponents:- Day 1.

M1W Kyokutenho Edited January 20, 2009 by Jejima
XiaoTan Posted January 20, 2009 Posted January 20, 2009 Enlated by my success - Day 12 - Yoshikaze Neko
Jejima Posted January 20, 2009 Author Posted January 20, 2009 Why not? Yoshikaze for day 12 for me too (Being ill...)
Chisaiyama Posted January 20, 2009 Posted January 20, 2009 Makes sense, I guess, they went M1,2,3 on the east why not the west? Day 12 Yoshikaze Day 13 Goeido - how's that for an early pick?
Yaochoyama Posted January 20, 2009 Posted January 20, 2009 A new day on my piece of earth, so for my first activity under the new Obama administration, I'll jump aboard the Yoshikaze bandwagon. As I mentined in post #77, I'll try to get my picks in for the last 3 days by 4:00 AM JST. So if you want to counter me, check at that time. (If it's not there, try again in half an hour)
Maguroyama Posted January 20, 2009 Posted January 20, 2009 Maguroyama's in all probability false guess: GOEIDO
Sokkenaiyama Posted January 20, 2009 Posted January 20, 2009 Hmmmm... I'm stabbing in the dark, as usual. Day 12 - Goeido
Oshirokita Posted January 21, 2009 Posted January 21, 2009 (edited) not sure if I am too late but I will stay on my previous guesses Day 12 Kotomitsuki Edit: ack, never mind, I just checked the sumo.goo site and see Day 12 is already posted and i am wrong... Edited January 21, 2009 by Oshirokita
Jejima Posted January 21, 2009 Author Posted January 21, 2009 M2W Yoshikaze is the day 12 opponent. Yaochoyama keeps the lead, and is (as usual) invited to make an early pick. Sokkenaiyama (S1E 3-8-1) S Jejima (S1W 5-7) Maguroyama (K1E 2-10) K Harry (K1W 0-5-7) XiaoTan (M1E 4-8) M1 Yaochoyama (M2W 6-6) Holleshoryu (M2E 5-7) M2 Mae-zumo ilovetochinoshin (mz 3-5-4) Chisaiyama (mz 3-7-2) Profomisakari (mz 2-8-2) Oshirokita (mz 2-8-2) Kisenosato's opponents:- Day 1. Y1W Asashoryu 2. O2E Kotooshu 3. S1E Baruto 4. O3E Harumafuji 5. O1W Chiyotaikai 6. O2W Kaio 7. M1E Kotoshogiku 8. Y1E Hakuho 9. M2E Miyabiflobmonster 10. M3E Takekaze 11. M1W Kyokutenho 12. M2W Yoshikaze
Jejima Posted January 21, 2009 Author Posted January 21, 2009 Day 13 - it has been a while since the last Kotomitsuki bad-wagon.... But presuming he is not yet kyujo, then Kotomitsuki for me too.
XiaoTan Posted January 21, 2009 Posted January 21, 2009 Nono - I'll try something different - Goeido on day 13. Neko
Jejima Posted January 21, 2009 Author Posted January 21, 2009 Nono - I'll try something different - Goeido on day 13. Neko I think Goeido'll get Tamanoshima on day 13 (Neener, neener...)
Sokkenaiyama Posted January 21, 2009 Posted January 21, 2009 Goeido is indeed the prime candidate for Tamanoshima, but the real question is Tochiozan's opponent. Having already faced all the kachikoshi maegashira, my guess is that they'll feed him to some sanyaku (Baruto maybe?). Funny thing, there is no maegashira at exactly 7 wins... Hmm... I wonder if it would be too time-consuming to actually play a full Guess the Torikumi game... Just like playing Guess the Banzuke, only on a daily basis. (Neener, neener...)
