I think I can "remember" (you know me... this means that this information might as well be utter crap) that there has been a 2 once. So it's not an all-time record but honourable mentions for being pretty low. I would have to dig pretty deep in the archives to know for sure, though.

"You had exactly one job to do..."

Just checked mine, too. You would not believe it, there was a severe IT problem right between my keyboard and my chair, but that's sorted out now...

Day 2 Standings Day 3 Standings Yamashade added and also a little lineup change that came in via PM. Selection stats and day 1 adjusted accordingly.

Hello gamers, the UDH entry form is ready now, and waiting for your selections. Rules in a (very small) nutshell: Guess the thirteen makuuchi rikishi you expect to have the fewest wins this basho. You may submit your entry at http://udh.seisa.de/udh_index.html. Once you have selected your team, please root for them as much as you can. The game was not intended to honor any failure, but to stimulate interest in the less successful rikishi. The deadline for your entries will be the first day of the basho (Sunday, November 10th) at 12pm Japanese Time. Good luck!

Final Standings Just the raw results; a little bit of admin (e.g. the rikishi of the year) will follow later this week.

While you all have been causing a stir in here I have been pondering about the problem a bit further... First of all: it is more of a "problem". During the 120ish basho since UDH has started a shonichi fusen has happened five times in Makuuchi, before that you have to go back to 1991, 1972 and 1966. Towanoyama (M13, 2002.03) and Osunaarashi (M3, 2016.07) were at personal ability levels and ranks that I would expect to be picked by many players in very similar fashion. So was Tokitsuumi (M16, 2006.05), who did even return to the basho later. Kakuryu on the other hand (two times: 2015.04 and 2019.11) was at a position where you would have to have a good reason to pick him in UDH. Makes 2-3 out of 120 basho. As for the deadline, I do not quite see the point in putting it as late as possible. Yes, more information for more players to use, but what would be the result of it? (Nearly) everyone setting Kakyuryu on 6pts and effectively everyone is playing with 12 rikishi and only 33 daily points.

Day 6 Standings

That pretty much sums it up what I have in mind. As I read from your [everybody in this thread, not only the man quoted] responses, 4 or 5 A.M. JST should be early enough to close the gates?
