Hello everyone! Welcome to Class Dismissed Nagoya 2021. We are back in the Dolphins Arena for the first time since 2019 due to the pandemic, and hopefully this will turn out to be an exciting basho. Outside of the game, Terunofuji is looking to become the next yokozuna, and we could be seeing the last of Hakuho. Ura also completed the unthinkable and successfully returned to the top division. in game, Flohru won his 10th yusho with zensho, while our good friend Yoohoo declared intai. Last basho for our eligible wrestlers, we said goodbye to Takaryu and Horyuyama, but this basho we are saying hello to more collegiate talent who are joining the field, including sandanme tsukedashi winner Ishizaki and jonokuchi playoff contenders Fujiseiun and Suguro, among others. One wrestler we won't be seeing until next year is soon to be ozeki Asanoyama who unfortunately did not follow Covid protocols set by the JSA. This basho we will be seeing 70 69 eligible wrestlers for the game, which is the highest number since 2019. Let's see how things are going this basho!

The goal of the game is to pick who you think will go kachi-koshi out of the current field of 67 collegiate rikishi in sumo. For each pick that goes KK, you will earn one win. If that pick goes MK, you will receive one loss. A fairly simple game but you got to know what you're looking out for. For rules please see below. 

Rules
1 - Pick 15 rikishi for your main team, and then pick one sekitori (Makuuchi, Juryo) and one lower division rikishi (Makushita, Sandanme, Jonidan, Jonokuchi) for your alternate team in case somebody from your main team goes kyujo
2 - Alternates will be substituted if there is a kyujo any time during the basho, at both levels if necessary. If both alternates get used, they will be only for their divisions (sekitori for sekitori, lower division for lower division)
 a. The exception to this will be if the kyujo rikishi is already kachikoshi
 b. If the kyujo rikishi returns and finishes the basho, the better record achieved by either the kyujo rikishi or the alternate will be used for scoring
 c. If two or more rikishi go kyujo for a division (sekitori or lower), then the best scores will be used for that division
3 - You must select a minimum of 5 sekitori and a minimum of 5 lower division rikishi for your main team (in case of a tiebreaker)
4 - You will also select a tiebreaker team of one sekitori and lower division rikishi
5 - In total you will select 19 rikishi (15 main team, 2 alternates, 2 for tiebreaker team)
6 - Tsukedashi rikishi will not be eligible for picks as they are not added to the banzuke until the torikumi is posted. They will be added to the roster when they have a proper banzuke ranking in the following basho

Tiebreaker criteria
1 - Most Yusho won by team members, if same number the higher the division the higher the criteria
2 - Most Jun-yusho or yusho-doten won by team members, same criteria as yusho
3 - Strength of combined records for top 5 sekitori and top 5 lower division rikishi
4 - Strength of combined records for tiebreaker team
5 - Any wins by makuuchi team members over yokozuna and ozeki (*Any wins by Asanoyama and Shodai over yokozuna and ozeki are excluded)
6 - Results of any potential match ups that happened between different picks on the teams (Rikishi A from team 1 beat Rikishi B from team 2)
7 - Best finishes among least consensus picks (example 9 players pick rikishi A and 1 player picks rikishi B. Both rikishi finish 8-7, rikishi B will have higher criteria)
8 - Strength of combined records of alternates (regardless if they were put into the main line up or not)
9 - Earliest Submission (Ultimate tiebreaker)

Sansho is awarded based on the following criteria:
Shukun-sho: Highest combined total for tiebreaker 3 (top 5 sekitori and top 5 lower division picks)
Kanto-sho: Most lower division kachikoshi picks (minimum 5 correct guesses + kachikoshi required)
Gino-sho: Most sekitori kachikoshi (minimum 5 correct guesses + kachikoshi required)
Golden/Ougon-sho: Most overall yusho, jun-yusho, doten picks (minimum 2 correct guesses, kachikoshi not required)

Took me a while to post this because of running my other games, and work plus personal life really takes time. Five players are playing this time, a few people had to sit out this basho, and we had one intai from the previous basho

Tenshinhan --> 13-2
WAKATAKE --> 14-1

Talk about a crazy basho! We have a 3 way playoff involving WAKATAKE, Flohru and chishafuwaku with 14-1 records! Let's go to the tiebreakers to see who emerges victorious!

TB1: Yusho won by team members
- WAKATAKE --> no picks

- chishafuwaku --> picked Osanai

WAKATAKE is eliminated from the playoff, not being able to keep up with Flohru and chishafuwaku

TB2: Jun-Yusho or Doten by team members
- Both Flohru and chishafuwaku picked Fujiseiun who was the only pick to have a jun-yusho/doten

TB3: Strength of combined records of top 5 sekitori and top 5 lower division wrestlers

Flohru

Tenshinhan came back to the game and gets back onto our rankings chart. @Achiyama could not compete this basho, he is encouraged to compete next basho so that he does not fall off the rankings. @Shinobi Steve sat out two consecutive basho and is removed from the rankings.

Hopefully we see more people compete for Aki 2021!
