* - Welcome, new players!

The Rules:

Put yourselves in the Kyokai guys' place -
Try to guess the next Basho's Banzuke. That's all there is to it.
Have 42 rikishi in your entry.
For every correct guess of the rank, you get  1 point. (Hit)
For guessing  the East-West AND the rank, you get 2 points. (Bulls-eye)
In case of a tie in total points, the entry with the most correct guesses of rank wins.
If STILL tied, the earlier entry wins!!

Sounds easy, huh?  We shall see..

Here, you can see how others have done in the past.

First prize -The winner will receive a "gold plated" metal medal with his
name "inscribed" (well,  kind of pasted..) on it!

Important - Only One (1) entry per player
and one entry per e-mail address!!
Multiple entries, when verified,will disqualify all entries.

Ranking System
The ranking system is based on the performance of the last six bashos.
Total points and places of the last six bashos are converted to ranking points which result in the rank.

Missing a Basho
The first kyujo has no effect on the ranking points - it will be treated as
kosho. If you are absent consecutively for two bashos, the second kyujo counts as a
zero. If you are absent consecutively for three bashos, the second and the third
kyujo counts as a zero et cetera. After missing seven bashos in a row you will be unranked.

Special thanks to Stewart Nelson for the entry form,  to Alexander Nitschke (Doitsuyama)
for the result-checking Excel , and to Andoreasu  for the database and ranking system
(with Zenjimoto)and the general running of the game. Without them, I would be much older.
