Thank you for the unexpected promotion to Ozeki. I will aim to rise above the clouds. I will endeavor to beat the crap out of my opponents, always with honor. I will try not to bring disgrace to the title of Ozeki, whether that be the torturing of the juniors, hitting or hitting on the Okamisan, or my favorite, patronizing dens of iniquity. And lastly, I aim to avoid making a career out of being kadoban, unlike certain other Ozeki who shall remain nameless. I’m going to cut my promotion acceptance speech short because having to hunker down on this hard floor in this ridiculous position is about to kill me! Arigato gozaimashita! Banzai!!

I want to play again. In addition, my friends Kaminariyuki and Chanko Thief want to play, too.
-
My goodness, I didn’t know Ozumo was still accepting 15-year-olds.
-
Thank you! I must have been thinking of the guitar player, Steve Vai.
-
In please, and while you’re at it, please sign up my friends, Kaminariyuki and Chanko Thief. Thank you!
-
I could be wrong but if I recall correctly, that fish is known as “Vai” which also means “victory” in Japanese.
-
Yes! I am in!! I am thrilled to be in Sanyaku for the Aki basho. Hope my luck continues and I haven’t jinxed myself. I’d also like to sign up my friends Kaminariyuki and Chanko Thief again.

I am so excited to win my first Yusho!!! Big thanks to my partner Shirokuma, my favorite “Polar Bear”, without whom I could not have done it! Big thanks also to Nichinoseki Oyakata (ex-Kisenosato) for raising us to be champions! Special thanks to @Athenayama for the day-to-day operation of this game and to @Jejima for dreaming it up! Whew!! Winning the Yusho is hard work. Shirokuma and I are exhausted! Time to sit down and throw back some sake to celebrate! Thanks everyone for playing.

Instead of “Haha” to indicate you’re happy with your pick, why not ❤️? “Haha” to me indicates you’re laughing at who your pick is.

Please include my friends Kaminariyuki and Chanko Thief.
-
Please count me in!

Hi Fujisan, I’m not a Scream fan but out of curiosity, I Googled “Anika and Ethan switching their hats”. I found a Reddit discussion where one poster said they heard that the actors did it during a take and the directors loved it & decided to keep it that way. P.S. It made me happy that you liked the second card I made for you.
-
Thanks. His shikona is Chanko Thief.

Is it too late for a friend of mine who has never played before to enter? He used to be quite active on SF but has been busy in other areas of his life. As soon as he finds his password, he’ll be back on board. In the meantime, I would like to register him for the game if it’s not too late.

Another quote from Reddit. Original source unknown. Originally published in Japanese, then translated to English using Google. Dated April 12, 2024. “I will be admitted to a hospital in Tokyo as of today. I don’t know the cause yet, but I’m undergoing tests. I hope I’ll get better and be able to smile again. I’m grateful to everyone who supports me. From Dorji” ————————————————— This is not new information. Both this quote and the original quote in my first post are dated April 12, 2024. Notice he said nothing about cancer in this quote. I’m trying not to be cynical but he does seem to like to be the center of attention.
