Tochiozan

Profomisakari

[Hidariashiyama]

Day 6 - Aran

[Gernobono]

day 6 tochiozan

[Asashosakari]

Hmm, could be either of the M1....

I'm stubbornly keeping stubborn:

Day 6 - Asasekiryu

And I'm going to have to keep stalking Jakusotsu...Asasekiryu for me again, too.

And I'm going to have to keep stalking Jakusotsu...Asasekiryu for me again, too.

Day 6 - Asasekiryu

Jakusotsu! How did you manage to get into possession of Paul the Octopus?

Hats off anyway to your Kise-Guessing mastery!

Although that was quite impressive, I won't engage in stalking but stick again with

Ow2 Kaio

for Day 7

let him play with the big boys now!

[Jakusotsu]

Let's go stalking the old man!

Day 7 - Kaio

[Gernobono]

the old man looks obvious

but give him

day 7 Tochiozan

[Kameumi]

Day 7 - Kaio

[Kotoviki]

Just got back to the hotel, so thanks again to XiaoTan for filling in... by the way did I mention that I hate this game? I'm going to go with Tochiozan for Day 7. Then I think he'll get some Ozeki on the weekend!!

[XiaoTan]

No need to thank me every day - the administrative hassle is absolutely bearable!

[Kotoviki]

thanks!

the game itself is giving me a headache though!!! when I heard the gyoji announce the next day's matches I was like "no no no....." :-S

[Hidariashiyama]

kaio day 7

[Profomisakari]

Day 7 Tochiozan

Profomisakari

[Chisaiyama]

Hate to follow the parade but I agree Changed my mind, I think instead, for

Day 7: Aran

[Yaochoyama]

'Apologies' for entering so early - my usual schedule is flipped today.

While I won with my stalking Jakusotsu strategy yesterday, I hope he won't mind if I return to my mimic Jejima strategy for today:

Day 7 - Tochiozan

[Asashosakari]

I have a slight hunch it's going to be somebody else (no, not Kaio), but I just can't avoid the obvious choice: Tochiozan for Day 7, please.

[Jakusotsu]

stubborn, stubborn, stubborn

Day 8 - Kaio

[XiaoTan]

The underlying motto of GKA is certainly - "expect the unexpected" - so Kotooshu on Day 7 should come as a surprise to any-no-one.

[XiaoTan]

If my trend analysis is worth nothing than Jakusotsu's strategy works every second day, so I'll stalk him: Kaio on Nakabi!

[kuroimori]

I repeat:

KAIO FOR DAY 8!

(If necessary, I repeat that again tomorrow...most likely...)

[Kotoviki]

I was so mad when the gyoji announced the matches for tomorrow!!! (Sign of approval...) When I saw Kotooshu! I wanted to yell, "you've certainly made a mistake sir!"

Grrrr. I'll go with Kaio for Day 8 as well. He's doing 2nd best this basho of all the Ozeki so why not?

Thanks again Xiao Tan!

by the way folks.. the heat turns up from tomorrow.... forecast expected to 35C for the next week... no more rain! (Sign of disapproval...)

[Gernobono]

day 8 tochiozan
