M1W Ryoshishikunin will rely on M14W Endo.

Copying and pasting from last basho's thread....

I've noticed that some people are adding 'likes' to their picks, and this made me think.....

Perhaps we could indicate that we have read to see who we have been assigned, AND show how we feel about the pick....

The four options are: 'Thanks' (trophy), 'Haha' (laughing face), 'Confused' (confused face) and 'Sad' (Sad face).

So, why not use those as the four indications of how you think your rikishi will do?

'Thanks' = I expect a really good result (10-5 minimum, but more likely 11+ wins)
'Haha' = I am happy with my pick - and I am expecting a KK.
'Confused' = I am really not sure about my pick - might depend on whether my rikishi is fully fit etc (so a suitable 'like' for my son Kaba's 'Terunofuji').
"Sad' = I'm not happy with this pick, and I am already preparing myself for an MK.

This is for the message where you get your rikishi, not this actual message.

J4E Athenayama gets J11W Aoiyama.

This will be Aoiyama's third consecutive basho at J11W. Stuck in a rut?

You are kidding me, right?

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.

M10W Chiyotasuke takes M15E Chiyoshoma.

Last basho, Chiyoshoma managed an impressive 12-3.

@Chiyotasuke needs a new rikishi for the sweepstake, as Chiyoshoma is not in action on day. He gets.....  M12E Asanoyama.

If Asanoyama is genki, this could be an excellent substitute. But Asanoyama skipped the whole of the previous tournament - and he has only competed every day for two of his past six bashos.

M17E Gaijingai has J2E Takerufuji.

If he is active, this could be an excellent selection for Gaijingai.

@Gaijingai also needs another rikishi, as Takerufuji is sadly kyujo on day 1. Gaijingai gets..... M16W Bushozan.

Bushozan's previous two results were both 9-6! (But in Juryo....) Last time Bushozan was ranked at M16W (back in January), he ended up 4-11.
