Guess Kisenosato's Aite

[Yaochoyama]

Yeah, so much for the Day 11 slam dunk pick of Hakuho. I see it pretty much 50-50 today between Baruto and Kaio which is probably about as good of odds as I'll get for the remainder of basho to make up a point. So:

Day 11 - finally joining the Kaio bandwagon

[XiaoTan]

Baruto on Day 11 - well did anyone get that one - yes, plenty of people?

Yaochoyama (Y1E 4-7) Y1

O1 Profomisakari (O1W 3-8)

Holleshoryu (S1E Kosho) S1 Jakusotsu (S1W 5-6)

Jejima (S2E 3-8) S2 Maguroyama (S2W Kosho)

Gernobono (S3E 3-8) S3

Kisenosato's aites: 1. M2W Aminishiki, 2. M3E Kyokutenho, 3. NK Tochinoshin, 4. HK Hakuba, 5. NS Kotoshogiku, 6. M1W Asasekiryu , 7. HO Kotooshu, 8. M1E Tochiozan, 9. M2E Aran, 10. HY Hakuho, 11. HO Baruto

[XiaoTan]

Hmm - Will Hakuho face Kaio on Day 12. I say yes, and I will most probably regret it - so I take Harumfuji on Day 12.

[Jejima]

Well, it is time to enter my droning line up for day 12 onwards (although hopefully, I will be back online for the last two days for picking)...

So, please take in this order (my pick for each day is the highest on the list yet to meet to Kisenosato....)

Harumafuji

Tokitenku

Kakuryu

Kaio

Edited July 20, 2010 by Jejima

[Jakusotsu]

Ok, that one is easy:

Day 12 - Harumafuji

[kuroimori]

Well, at least I don't have to be afraid of being stalked with that crappy record of mine...

So then, let me have

Amafuji, or what's his name again

for Day 12

(if it's gonna be Kaio I might need a strait jacket...)

[Asashosakari]

Yeah, I'll eat my proverbial hat if it's not Harumafuji, so let's go with that.

[XiaoTan]

Yeah, I'll eat my proverbial hat if it's not Harumafuji, so let's go with that.

Is it a "Zuckerhut"? (Laughing...)

[Gernobono]

day 12 homasho

[Kotoviki]

I was so happy to see Baruto!! I won't be there and won't have to cheer against Kise again!!!

I will go with Harumafuji for day 12 also because I won't be there!! I want him to meet Homasho and 13th day so I can cheer for Kise!!!! (Sign of approval...)

[Chisaiyama]

I'll jump on the bandwagon and go with...

Day 12: Harumafuji

[Profomisakari]

Day 12 Kakuryu

Profomisakari

[Yaochoyama]

Day 12 - Harumafuji

[Kotoviki]

Harumafuji on Day 12 thanks to me mentioning that to the gyoji torikumi makers as much as possible...haha!!!

I only have 30 seconds so I can not tally up everyone's scores but some of us got that right!!!

[Asashosakari]

Too bad about Kaio's withdrawal...

[Jakusotsu]

Might as well be

Day 13 - Homasho

[XiaoTan]

Luckily, some game participants will avoid serious indigestion issues as the Torikumi makers indeed caved in and assigned Harumafuji on Day 12.

And the future was wide open....

Kakuryu on Day 13?

[Kotoviki]

I will go with Kakuryu for Day 13 as well!

[Gernobono]

day 13 homasho

Edited July 21, 2010 by Gernobono

[Asashosakari]

Well, Homasho's loss today kinda removes the pressure to put him against any more big guns and interrupt the top-4 tourney, but I doubt he goes right back to regular opponents either... Has to be Kisenosato for him on Day 13, I guess? Hmm. Yeah, I'll go with Homasho.

(And I need to apologize to Jakusotsu...I really do want to give you a chance to catch up but a) you're picking before I've even had a chance to activate my brain, and b) it's been hard to come to different conclusions than yours.)

Edited July 21, 2010 by Asashosakari

[Profomisakari]

I too stay for Homasho on day 13

Profomisakari

[Kameumi]

Day 13 - Kakuryu!

Hey, Maby I will pick up my 2'nd win!?

[Jakusotsu]

(And I need to apologize to Jakusotsu...I really do want to give you a chance to catch up but a) you're picking before I've even had a chance to activate my brain, and b) it's been hard to come to different conclusions than yours.)

Hey, no need to apologize, and no need to pick wrongly either. (Sign of approval...)

[kuroimori]

Well, Homasho's trip to higher realms should've come to an end with today's defeat, so my guess is

Kakuryu

will go up against Kisenoblinky on

Day 13
