Guess Kisenosato's Aite

[Chisaiyama]

I'm thinking you may be right about the Torikumi makers padding his record, look at the Goeido pick he has 3-1 lifetime edge on him. So with that thought in mind I say....

Day 5 - Kyokutenho

Edited July 14, 2009 by Chisaiyama

[Sokkenaiyama]

That came from left field, as usual. Day 5 - Kotooshu (they gotta meet sometime)

[Profomisakari]

It's a total new pattern, but I stay for my pick:

Kaio

Profomisakari

[Ganzohnesushi]

Day 5 - Kotooshu

Ganzohnesushi

[XiaoTan]

Come on - bring on the Ozeki's - day 5 Kaio

[Jakusotsu]

I'm starting to hate this game even more than Seki-Quad, which is a sure sign of true love. (Ranting...)

Day 5 - Kaio

[Hidariashiyama]

Day 5 - Aran

[Kotoviki]

I will go with Kaio again!

Harry emailed earlier he wasn"t feeling well so IF he doesn't come here and make his own pick go with Kaio for Harry as well!

Thanks

[Jakusotsu]

Harry emailed earlier he wasn"t feeling well

Bad teriyaki, or simply crushed by your charms? (Ranting...)

[Kofuji]

Day 5 - Kaio

[Jejima]

Just in case I have problems with Internet access, please take the following in order until they are picked for days 6 onwards (Please note, I picked Kotomistuki already for day 5).

Kaio

Kotomitsuki

Kotooshu

Asashoryu

Kyokutenho

Kotoshogiku

Kakuryu

Aran

Hopefully this won't be necessary (Ranting...)

[Harry]

Harry emailed earlier he wasn"t feeling well

Bad teriyaki, or simply crushed by your charms? (Ranting...)

Hopefully just too much beer and teppanyaki...

Sticking with Kaio is fine. This basho's torikumi making seems to be without much rhyme or reason!

Spilling the beans you know... Harry went from Jet Lag (Sleeping...) no sleep then on to (Singing drunk...) too many beers his first night out!!!

Harry, go to bed & recover!!!! Do you think you are going to sleep all the way to Nagoya while I drive?? I don't think so!!! (I am not worthy...)

[Gernobono]

the torikumi-makers will surprise anyone but me

kotoshogiku

Edited July 14, 2009 by Gernobono

[Holleshoryu]

day 5 miyabiyama (I am not worthy...)

[Maguroyama]

Day 5 - Kaio (again...)

[Yaochoyama]

Day 5 - trying my luck with the Kaio mini-bandwagon.

[Oshirokita]

hey, I got one right (even though I thought it quite likely Kotomitsuki would get the nod on Day 5 since he hasn't faced a sekiwake yet), even so:

Day 6 Kotooshu

[Kofuji]

The mini bandwagon for Kaio pays off with 9 of us picking up wins for Day 5. The eight players who were right both day 1 and day 5 get a 1 win lead and are invited to start the next bandwagon.

Naturally, I couldn't leave this un-automated after updating manually while filling in last basho, so I have a little spreadsheet that takes in the entries and spits out the results, so let me know if you see any anomalies.

Yaochoyama (O1E 2-3) O

Sokkenaiyama (S1E 1-4) S Profomisakari (S1W 2-3)

Jakusotsu (K1E 2-3) K Maguroyama (K1W 2-2-1)

Oshirokita (M1E 2-3) M1 Kofuji (M1W 1-4)

Jejima (M2E 1-4) M2 Harry (M2W 2-3)

XiaoTan (M3E 2-3) M3 ilovetochinoshin (M3W 2-3)

Holleshoryu (M4E 1-4) M4 Chisaiyama (M4W 1-4)

Hidariashiyama (M5E 0-2-3) M5 Gernobono (M5W 1-4)

Mae-zumo

Ganzohnesushi (mz 0-2-3)

Kisenosato's aites: 1. O1E Harumafuji, 2. O3E Chiyotaikai, 3. M3E Iwakiyama, 4. M1W Goeido, 5. O2E Kaio

[Profomisakari]

Day 6 Kyokutenho

Profomisakari

[XiaoTan]

They could throw in the odd Yokozuna, couldn't they?

I say Asashoryu on day 6.

Neko

[Maguroyama]

I'll stick with the ozeki:

Day 6 - Kotomitsuki

[Jejima]

Bah! I should have stuck with my horse.

I'll go with Miki again for day 6.

(Yes,　Ｉ　ｈａｖｅ　ｊｕst arrived in Nagoya - one minute after 6 pm, so not quite in time for the last bouts.)

[Sokkenaiyama]

Day 6 - Kotooshu

[Kofuji]

Day 6 - Kyokutenho
