While they had somewhat reasonable arguments, I still feel that Miyabiyama got kind of robbed. With or without precedences - is there any rule that makes it generally impossible to leapfrog the sekiwake rank? No great analogy, but but leapfrogging komusubi is quite common.

Playoff against stablemate Takerufuji. Aww, shit, complete brainfart. No idea how that came to me.

Yeah, a solid 15-0 D wouldn't be too shabby, indeed.

Takerufuji. 88% wins and never lost a makuuchi bout...

I think none of them will get the nod on 32 wins. And none of them will be snubbed on 33.

Thanks for maintaining these lists. Batch1 - Active rikishi who have been in Ketteisen : - Kisenosato no longer active Batch2 - Most Consecutive Wins from Pro Debut : - Shiraishi on 7 match winning streak

And win the decider against a 15-0 stable mate

Due to the huge amount of brainpower and valuable information put into it, the thread became self-aware, noticed being in the wrong subforum and committed seppuku to restore its honour.

With 12-3 Y securing the promotion for Kisenosato, and 13-2 D no longer possible, would 12-3 D prolong the tsuna run or would he have to start over?

Mof[fen] and Boche, of course. (Sigh...)

Looking forward to your vids. :-)

I was able to watch the live stream on days 1-4 without Kinta's comments, and it's my impression, too, that this is the best basho I've sen in a while. Thanks in advance to Kintamayama for keeping me in touch during the upcoming days.

When Tochinoshin hits the ground at 6:07 watch the doyho cracks... Thanks for the videos, Kintamayama.

One more Sumo lurker says thank you, Kintamayama.

Thanks again for keeping me in touch with the big guys.
