We have an unusually high number of B picks.  There are also 24 X picks spread across 10 matches.  Tenshinhan is very agreeable this basho, and "5X" Shimodahito is, by far, the most disagreeable.

Let's get this thing going!

Surprising results on day 1.
Only Tsubame has all fights correct voted
and only Panda - san and Terarno have three of four possible points.

But what shall I comment to these results?
After 6 bouts only one player  has more as 50 % correct.
5 players have not one right pick.
The average is 1,58 points.

It's a pity, Paul. But let's see forward to the July basho.

But now to the to bouts on day 3!
Tsubame is unstoppable.
After 9 bouts he has a lead of 3 points before a 5 players pursuers group.
The best tiebreaker value of them has Pandaazuma.
That's great.
Kuromori had now too his first point

As somebody could see, I had here written a false results table, because I oversaw the Shodai vs. Chyotairyu bout.
But the row of leaders is the same.

Here is the ranking:

My own mistake

[Profomisakari]

Oops!
There was a double yesterdays post.

But his post had one more great mistake.
I got a message from Jim and he is right.

I wrote:

Quote

Now we have 12 bouts and Tsubame lost two of his three points lead.
of course he leads as ever, but especially Chankomafuji and Wakatake are hot on his heels.
But there is an place four a new name. Profomisakari.
He leads together with Pandaazuma the next pursuers group two points behind the leader.
Let's see what next days happens!

This table did not contain the points for fight 16 from day 2.
And now comes the corrected table. I hope it is the last correction.
But this table includes a new surprise for me and Panda - san.
I think I must it not comment.

The Irony of Fate - some might have heard or remember this comedy from the mid-70s.

How it came to my mind - because I was gonna say today "The Irony of 21" - Yusho Winner last basho ---> Second to last this basho. This is my fate.

But that's why I like this game. It was the first game I ever played many years ago, and the first YUSHO I won was playing this game. Again many years ago.

I wonder is there a place, where the archives of "21" are stored?

Regards,

Achiyama, Reigning "21" Yusho Winner

Yes Achi-san, there is a place in my Computer.
But there is an Excel table for each Basho - and Old people like me have no much time to make an Analysis

And now today's Result!

We had only one bout.
Kagayaki won against Okinoumi.
Tsubame did not beliefe, that the bout would take place.
And only 8 players had the winner Kagayaki, from the leading players only Wakatake and Shatsume.
Now leads as ever Tsubame, but he lost the whole three points lead and has only still the better tiebreaker against Wakatake.

We see: with only one open bout only two players: Wakatake and  Chankomafji.
And only, if Chankomafji. has the bout picked right and Wakatake false.

But  this is not happened. Both have the same pick A.
This means:
The winner is Wakatake.
Great Congatulations!

Many thanks to all players for participation,
excuse me please for some mistakes (I become old)
And especially thanks to Asojima for the as ever good bout selection.

You all are invited to play game 21 in July.
