the former Boltono, and his cool avatars

[Danjinoumi 9]

Several years back, when I was a sumo gamer, the former Boltono (I believe he has since changed his shikona) drew

excellent caricatures of many Bench Sumoans. I notice that Jejima, Randomitsuki and Jakusotsu are using theirs as avatars.

Boltono-san kindly drew one for me too; although I thought I saved it somewhere, I cannot find it.

So Bolty-san (or whatever shikona incarnation you use these days), if you are reading this, or if anyone knows where these

images are archived, kindly let me know! I'd love to get a copy!

Many thanks in advance,

moto-Danjinoumi

EDIT: apologies if this is posted in the wrong forum. I think the images were originally created based on Bench Sumo participation,

so this seemed like the best place to post.

I can tell you that Boltono is now called Boltbutthama in bench sumo and as far as I know he doesn't post here.

Are you not on the Bench sumo mailing list anymore? Thats the place to ask.

Nope, I had my Bench Sumo danpatsu-shiki a few years ago.

Jejima has volunteered to get in touch with the aforementioned ex-Boltono on my behalf.

As long as you have a yahoo id, you can just go to groups.yahoo.com and find the benchsumo group. That would be the best place to post this but anyway, it seems Jejima will hook you up!

A Yotsukasa avatar! I haven't thought about him for a while. He had the only kanji I couldn't find in my dictionary at the time I was studying intensively.

As you can see from my new avatar, the mighty (ex-)Boltono comes through again!

Many thanks, ST!
