21 Aki 12, The Results

[Asojima 2,874]

Welcome to the 21 game for Aki 12.

The game is a simple pre-basho game in which you are given 21 matchups that may occur in the next basho. Your job is to decide whether each match will occur, and, if so, who will win it.

Each of the 42 makuuchi rikishi will be found in one and only one match. The matchups are selected on the basis of closeness in rank and the closeness in win-loss records. The intent is to select 21 of the least predictable matches.

Entries are submitted as posts in this topic. Each match will have two rikishi labeled “A” and “B”. For each match, enter the match number and either A or B for your selected winner. If you do not think the match will occur, enter an “X”.

For example:

1. A

2. X

3. B

...

The winner is the entry with the most correct answers. (X counts.) If one of the rikishi for a match does not appear on the dohyo for the entire basho, that match will be counted as correct for all entries. An entry other than A, B or X will be counted as incorrect. In the event of a tie, the earliest entry wins.

Entry deadline is 2 days before shonichi at 05:00 AM (JST) on Friday, September 7. No new entries or entry modifications will be accepted after the deadline.

Here are the 21 matches for Aki 12. The numbers in parens are the the results of the most recent matches between the two.

Surprise, surprise, surprise, I remembered to enter this game without having to wait to get a reminder. Hopefully I will get a better score by not having to do it in a hurry!

Edit* (Scratching chin...) no-one else use an X i see, i have three of them, is that unlikely?

Double edit* at the risk of answering my own question, yes, especially where i put the first X, i guess kisenosato has a very good chance of meeting Myogiryu, well i'l keep as i first chose just to see, stranger things have happened hehe.
