Fuseigou 22 Posted July 6, 2010 Due to the latest events, some rikishi will be absent for the coming tournament. Sakana and I wonder if we will maintain this basho or not ? For the fawlers who know rules, we'll have 5 absent rikishi of the middle class (14 rikishi by class) : Goeido, Toyonoshima, Miyabiyama, Toyohibiki and Wakakoyu. Do you think we have to play, with just 9 choices and not 14 as usual, or do you think it will be better to cancel this tournament and come back in september ? Fawlers, please tell us your choice before tomorrow same hour. Thanks in advance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kameumi 1 Posted July 6, 2010 I sadly think it would be better to cancel it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Asashosakari 19,320 Posted July 6, 2010 (Not a player but that's never stopped me before...) Would it be feasible to adjust the classes this one time? 13/16/13 would lead to 12/11/12 pickable rikishi, 12/18/12 to 11/13/11 picks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ganzohnesushi 515 Posted July 6, 2010 Can't you reduce the groups to 12/12/12, or whatever the number of final participants is? I know we then have to wait until Friday as we still can not be 100% sure who all is suspended for this Basho. If that is impossible I think it is better to cancel it.

Toratorii 11 Posted July 9, 2010 Please continue the game. It may be a very unique basho, but it will be strategically fun regardless. Make an adjustment as you feel necessary, yet find a way to gambarize, similarly to the real basho. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Doitsuyama 1,185 Posted July 10, 2010 No decision was posted here, so I thought the game will be on. But it doesn't seem to be so on the FAWL page as I couldn't make an entry... (Weeping...) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fuseigou 22 Posted July 10, 2010 Many thanks to all of you who posted an aswer and many apologizes not to have answered earlier. We finally decided to cancel the July tournament, for many reasons : some technical issues to modify the database, with the purpose to correct exceptionally the class sizes the imbalance of the 3 blocks due to the absent rikishis, in particular for the middle class the too much short time to make predictions (especially due to our incapacity to have a decision) my third child birth (Sign of approval...) and the impacts on a regular work at FAWL... We are very sorry for those of you who want to play, see you in september. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
