Guess Kisenosato's Aite

[Oshirokita]

(first guess for Day 9 was Kotooshu)

but after a quick rethink, I am changing my mind:

Day 9 KYOKUTENHO

Edited July 18, 2009 by Oshirokita

[XiaoTan]

Day 9 Kyokutenho - why not?

[Jakusotsu]

To be the odd man out:

Day 9 - Kotoshogiku

[Ganzohnesushi]

Another surprise - Day 9 it's Tochiozan

Ganzohnesushi

[Hidariashiyama]

Day 9 - Kotooshu

[Kofuji]

Looks like there's a Kotooshu bandwagon loading up, but I'm going with the Ozeki's Koto, Kotoshogiku for Day 9.

[Holleshoryu]

day 9 kotooshu too

[Kotoviki]

Kotooshu for me! I think that it will be him or Baruto but I will go with Oshu this time!!!!

[Kotoviki]

FOR HARRY

Harry is walking zombie! Just made a banner for Kitazakura & he stumbled out to his room! Too little sleep + too much excitment + too much beer = (I am not worthy...)

IF Harry doesn't make his own pick in the morning (he seems to wake up early) then he has to join me with Kotooshu! Because I have no idea who he really wants. But I don't want him to have no guess at all!!!

[Harry]

I'm alive... no longer undead. Yes was exhausted yesterday!

Anyways, Kotooshu is my pick as well.

[Sokkenaiyama]

Hmm... Baruto for day 9?

[Yaochoyama]

Day 9 Kotooshu

[Jejima]

Just got up　- and am just in time.

I think Kyokutenho for day 9. (Neener, neener...)

[Oshirokita]

Humph, okay staying on my pick:

Day 10 Kyokutenho

[Kofuji]

The evil torikumi makers go with M1E Aran as Kisenosato's aite for day 9, shutting us out. (I was really hoping for 'giku after the Ozeki switched horses.)

The leaders, Yoachoyama, Profomisakari and Maguroyama are invited to make early picks.

Yaochoyama (O1E 4-5) O

Sokkenaiyama (S1E 1-8) S Profomisakari (S1W 4-5)

Jakusotsu (K1E 3-6) K Maguroyama (K1W 4-4-1)

Oshirokita (M1E 3-6) M1 Kofuji (M1W 2-7)

Jejima (M2E 3-6) M2 Harry (M2W 3-6)

XiaoTan (M3E 3-6) M3 ilovetochinoshin (M3W 3-6)

Holleshoryu (M4E 2-7) M4 Chisaiyama (M4W 2-7)

Hidariashiyama (M5E 0-6-3) M5 Gernobono (M5W 2-7)

Mae-zumo

Ganzohnesushi (mz 1-5-3)

Kisenosato's aites: 1. O1E Harumafuji, 2. O3E Chiyotaikai, 3. M3E Iwakiyama, 4. M1W Goeido, 5. O2E Kaio, 6. O2W Kotomitsuki, 7. YE Hakuho, 8. YW Asashoryu, 9. M1E Aran

[Chisaiyama]

Well now that he's lost 2 and presumably 3 already and as long as Osh is still at 0 or even 1 loss I don't think they will pair them up. the M2's would hardly be a fitting opponent for a 5-3 rikishi, so my choice is:

Day 10: Baruto

[Sokkenaiyama]

Day 10 - Kotooshu

[Profomisakari]

Day 10 Kyukutenho

Profomisakari

[Yaochoyama]

Day 10 - Kyokutenho

[Gernobono]

day 10 kotooshu

[Maguroyama]

I keep insisting on Kotooshu.

[Jakusotsu]

If it was up to me, Kise would get Osh on day 12, but it isn't:

Day 10 - Kotooshu

[Kofuji]

Sticking with Kotoshogiku for day 10

[Holleshoryu]

day 10 baruto

[Jejima]

day 10 - Kyokutenho (In a state of confusion...)
