Beeswax posted:I believe tradition is to accept late entries. You just forfeit points from the days you missed Then I'll happily forfeit some days of points and join in the fun! I looked at https://sumo.or.jp/EnHonbashoBanzuke/index/ and picked whom I sort of recognised or smiled nicely.

pseudodragon posted:If accepted, not sure if kenning will auto fix it for you, but you might want to swap out Teru for Takakeisho in your post unless you want the 0--0-15 on some sort of principal. Thanks for the info! I saw Terunofuji at the top of the banzuke so just picked him. I've changed to Takakeisho.

Thank you for organising and counting the scores, Kenning! I imagined myself having a slightly better score than last basho, but I will take my bottom ranking with some satisfaction that I was here for it!

I had my first ever sumo dream. I dreamed I was a sumo wrestler, and I was quite a bit bigger than I really am. I was wandering around a big tournament venue in my white mawashi, asking people for directions to the toilet. I found the bathroom eventually and woke up. Found out I didn't really needed to go, then I fell asleep again.

I noticed those jackets too, as something I had not seen in earlier bashos. They remind me of the happi jackets for festivals, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Happi .

Robviously posted:Alright, I spent half of tonight redrafting to make sure I was using all the autofills properly and everyone had who they should have. I'm going to try to stay on top of this but it should be all set. Please check your teams, not everyone has small changes or large ones, but feel free to PM me or post here if I'm still missing something. Thanks Robviously! Fun to be in the fantasy sumo.

Thanks Banana Canada! I am surprised myself - I seem to switch between bottom and top of the Juryo list going from tournament to tournament. Picking Takerufuji was lucky! I think I just looked at the banzuke, saw his portrait and thought "This looks like a guy who means business!". I hope he recovers soon from his injury.
