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

Posted (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.

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?

Posted

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)

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...

M2W Yoshikaze is the day 12 opponent.

Yaochoyama keeps the lead, and is (as usual) invited to make an early pick.

Maguroyama (K1E 2-10) K Harry (K1W 0-5-7)

Chisaiyama (mz 3-7-2)

Profomisakari (mz 2-8-2)

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.

Nono - I'll try something different - Goeido on day 13. Neko

I think Goeido'll get Tamanoshima on day 13 (Neener, neener...)

Posted

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...)
