Kotoviki Posted July 8, 2012 Posted July 8, 2012 I don't think I have ever made it past day 1! I should start picking the one I want to lose!
Pandaazuma Posted July 9, 2012 Posted July 9, 2012 I have a feeling quite a high percentage will go out today as well!
kuroimori Posted July 9, 2012 Posted July 9, 2012 I have a feeling quite a high percentage will go out today as well! yep, 100% in my case :-( still way above average this time
Pandaazuma Posted July 10, 2012 Posted July 10, 2012 12 left! Kameumi...I'm curious now that you're out...what was the secret plan?? I was flabbergasted that only 6 chose Chiyotairyu today. He was a cast-iron certainty to win!
Kameumi Posted July 10, 2012 Posted July 10, 2012 Kameumi...I'm curious now that you're out...what was the secret plan?? My secret plan was a huge bowl of overconfidence. In hindsight - it was probably not my best secret plan ever! Best of luck the rest of the way. :)

Impressive SG headliner, I must admit! It's just annoying that some other guys spoil it most of the times.

Don't really understand what you're saying here! well, in this case, putting Chiyotairyu in the top slot was a nice move, but still you lost due to some other rikishi you selected further down. Just saw you put Chiyotairyu in the 3rd spot today -but Baruto at 10...? Greetings from the other end of the SG Banzuke
Pandaazuma Posted July 11, 2012 Posted July 11, 2012 (edited) Ah, thanks, Kuroimori - now I see what you mean. I thought you were talking about Chain still! Yes, but on that day it was more Randomitsuki picking very well than me being an idiot (although that was certainly true as well). Baruto at 10: yes, I am always very wary of Goeido as an opponent, and if you look at their recent head-to head record, you can see that Goeido has been quite successful against him: http://sumoreference...?r=6432&r2=6468 So I stuck him at 10. In the end, my opponent had a minor miracle of a comeback - he needed BOTH Kise and Kakuryu to lose. Grrr. Greetings to you as well! Hope to face you on the SG dohyo soon! PS. And to keep this on topic: 6 left in Chain! Both the auto-picks won yesterday. Looks like it will go on to at least day 7. Edited July 11, 2012 by Pandaazuma
kuroimori Posted July 15, 2012 Posted July 15, 2012 Nakabi Yuushou at Chaing Gang! Well done Señor Monte Cojones! (I am not worthy...)
Kintamayama Posted July 15, 2012 Author Posted July 15, 2012 Nakabi Yuushou at Chaing Gang! Well done Señor Monte Cojones! (I am not worthy...) Oh, didn't know-went with Yoshikaze which was suicide but I went with him anyway.. And I forgot to enter (!!!) on day 7 but my default Houmashou won.. I think it's my second CG yusho-I think I went all the way on my first one.
kuroimori Posted July 20, 2012 Posted July 20, 2012 Moti...stop playing with yourself!! He seems to enjoy it - sloooowly... 1
Pandaazuma Posted July 20, 2012 Posted July 20, 2012 Simple really...just pick against Hochiyama every day! Ironically, I lost by picking against him...his only win of the basho!
Kintamayama Posted July 20, 2012 Author Posted July 20, 2012 Simple really...just pick against Hochiyama every day! Ironically, I lost by picking against him...his only win of the basho! No. No way. I sit for a few hours analyzing each possible bout from every aspect, read the stats, do dry runs and some drills, and THEN I pick Houchiyama's opponent.
Pandaazuma Posted July 24, 2012 Posted July 24, 2012 Well done on reaching day 15...and not even picking Hochi's opponent every day as I would have! Well, maybe not Sotairyu... I thought you were going to catch me in the rankings there but I just managed to hang on to the top spot for one more basho. Definitely out on day one in September!
Kintamayama Posted July 25, 2012 Author Posted July 25, 2012 Crapshoot.Don't let anyone tell you otherwise..
