Ryoshishokunin 286 Posted January 24 Leading Players: 10-4 Kyokai:4-10. That's quite the basho. Gurowake, we await you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oshirokita 188 Posted January 25 I see 4 reasonably solid choices, but lots of alternates if Ura wins on Day 14. I think I will go with: Day 15 - Nishikigi Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Takanosho Of course, this is based on what I think will happen on day 14, and I've been awful in daily games even by my standards. But here we go. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ryoshishokunin 286 Posted January 25 the problem with being the fourth guy in the tiebreaker logjam is that I couldn't wait for them *all* to pick before me :( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jakusotsu 5,960 Posted January 25 Final results: Way to squander a yusho by not being stubborn enough! Another score for the evil Kyokai, so Gurowake runs away with it for the fourth time in a row - congrats!

Ryoshishokunin 286 Posted January 25 Wat. Why would you schedule Kotozakura - Hoshoryu but not Onosato-Wakamotoharu? (Onosato was my first guess, but I couldn't see a world where Onosato didn't get either Kotozakura or WMH after some reflection.) Hell, Hoshoryu-Ura at least gives him an opponent fighting for something. Other headscratchers include Takanosho/Kagayaki and Tobizaru/Meisei. I see no reason this couldn't be the other way around, unless there's a brother-in-law thing going on. (Congrats, Gurowake! With Rank that its privileges.)
