Randomitsuki Posted June 27, 2011 Posted June 27, 2011 Hi there, this is to invite you to participate in Banzuke Surfing in the upcoming basho. The rules are very simple. Banzuke Surfing is run in several waves, with a new wave starting every year. The goal is to move up the banzuke as far and fast as possible. You do so by temporarily "adopting" one or more rikishi at a given banzuke position. If your rikishi moves up the banzuke, so will you, if the rikishi moves down by getting MK, so will you (at least, if all your picked rikishi move down). If your rikishi goes intai, you will get his last position next time. In the basho after the current one you will be taking the banzuke position of the best-placed rikishi you've picked this time. If your name appears on the list below, you have already participated. The column "Allowed Picks" shows you which rikishi of the banzuke you are allowed to pick next basho. If you are participating for the first time, you are allowed to pick any of the rikishi in the bottom 32 of the banzuke (as indicated below). The rikishi that you are allowed to pick are all rikishi below your last (or most successful) pick. So generally, you cannot pick the same rikishi twice. An exception is if your rikishi drops into the last 32 of the banzuke or goes banzuke-gai. In this case, of course, you can pick any of the bottom 32 rikishi (just like a new player). During your entire career of a given wave you can use up to three so-called jokers (indicated by the number of asterisks behind your name). Jokers are additional rikishi you can pick. In addition to the regular rikishi you pick for a basho, you can use as many jokers as you've still left. E.g., at the beginning of a wave you could pick four rikishi instead of one (regular + all jokers). As a consequence, the most successful one of these four will determine your new banzuke position. But on the downside this would mean that you don't have any jokers left for later bashos. So pick jokers wisely, three isn't much for a wave that might run for much more than a year. Deadline is shonichi 8 AM JST. All new players are allowed to pick Jk8e Ishikawa and below. Rank Shikona Last Surfer Position Allowed Picks 1.

Jejima Posted July 2, 2011 Posted July 2, 2011 jd24E Komatsukasa please - and in case he gets injured again, I'd better use a joker too.... So jd26w Miyakita too (I can't believe I could not find a better Joker pick...)
Terarno Posted July 3, 2011 Posted July 3, 2011 Aaaaah, a wave where I can burn my jokers ! I pick W-Jonidan 66 Daichi please, and as a joker, W-Jonidan 57 Raomaru. Thanks.
Itachi Posted July 4, 2011 Posted July 4, 2011 (edited) jd57w Raomaru I was going to take a joker on Ikeru but he's kyujo. Edited July 9, 2011 by Itachi
kuroimori Posted July 4, 2011 Posted July 4, 2011 I'll pick Jd86w Ikeru and as a joker Jd57w Raomaru Thanks, kuroimori
charliki Posted July 5, 2011 Posted July 5, 2011 (edited) Jd57w Raomaru Thanx !!! ;-) Edited July 9, 2011 by charliki
Ganzohnesushi Posted July 7, 2011 Posted July 7, 2011 jd24E Komatsukasa joker: Jd57w Raomaru Ganzohnesushi
Randomitsuki Posted July 7, 2011 Author Posted July 7, 2011 Jd24e Komatsukasa My replacement pick (I cannot check for kyujo) would be Raomaru.
kuroimori Posted July 9, 2011 Posted July 9, 2011 I'll pickJd86w Ikeru and as a joker Jd57w Raomaru Thanks, kuroimori The kyujo bug is hitting me again, so I'll switch my pick from un-genki (or should I say "ikenai") Ikeru to Jd 57w Raomaru and no joker pick Thanks, kuroimori
Itachi Posted July 9, 2011 Posted July 9, 2011 jd57w RaomaruI was going to take a joker on Ikeru but he's kyujo. In case this entry has already been recorded, I thought I'd better create a new post to draw attention to the change. As with other players, I'm canceling my Ikeru pick due to his reported kyujo.
