shimodahito 315 Posted January 11, 2020 The wildcard (last rikishi/rank on the Hatsu banzuke) this year is Jonokuchi 28 East Taiga. Players are not allowed to pick the wildcard rikishi or rank, which so far hasn't happened with the 2020 entries. And for some good news. Since Jk28E Taiga is not scheduled for Day 1, there's no TORCH match. Therefore, the deadline for new entries and updates is extended. Entrees will be accepted until the first TORCH match begins. With a couple more new entries, we may break 100 active players this year. good luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

shimodahito 315 Posted January 11, 2020 (edited) Thanks for the heads up. We monitor his status.... we've had first TORCH matches start as late as halfway through the basho. If he stays out permanently, we backtrack and start the TORCH contest from the next lowest banzuke rank/rikishi. Also, as arranged before his passing..... Kofuji-ICAN's rikishi pick is Ryuden (his highest ranking adapted rikishi). Kofuji-ICAN's rank pick is Sandanme 44 East (the average of all his active adapted rikishi's ranks). For every point he scores, a donation is made to the international cancer advocacy network (ICAN). For those curious, his adopted rikishi were always: rikishi with “kifuji” or “kofuji” in their shikona -- (Tsubakifuji, Nishikifuji); and any rikishi from "Kofu-shi" in Yamanashi-ken -- (Ryuden, Shobushi).
