Day 7 lets go baby

Really appreciate you considering it. I know the whole concept of the game is trying to make smart bets but I know a lot of sumo fans are all in on one or two guys so I think people would enjoy that kind of play too

If a rikishi set as a default stake goes kyujo, the points set to auto stake are not spent. If two rikishi set to auto stake go head to head, default to the one on the east and points on the one on the west are unspent.

I’m not a dev at all so I have no idea how realistic this is, but perhaps players could set a default spread of points on a set of rikishi (eg: Hoshoryu 50 Fujinokawa 30 Asanoyama 20) that would be automatically placed as soon as staking opens, with the option to edit before closing

Please ignore this if this is an unrealistic idea or goes against your concept for the game, but I’d really appreciate an option to set a default stake as someone who often forgets to stake each day. Even if the only option is to put all 100 points on a single rikishi.

Yeah. Not sure what’s up with him. Komusubi isn’t easy but it’s like he’s got no power

Hosh is really warming up. He’s looking a lot sharper than he did at the beginning of the week

Atamifuji takes the rematch of hatsu’s playoff

Some say Aonishiki’s been figured out. People said that about Onosato when he got a 9-6 in his first basho as ozeki though and that didn’t bear out at all. You can’t fight at your best every time

#sumospoilers

Didn’t think they’d give Kiri ozeki with a run starting at m2 but if he keeps on like this and stays in contention to the end who knows

#sumospoilers

Wmh up for a perfect makekoshi tomorrow :(

Immaculate programming from the torikumi committee with the Osaka hometown boy showdown on nakabi eve

#sumo

There’s some shodai classic™

#sumospoilers

Yorikiri win for old tom! It’s a slow start for him this time but you’ll have bashos like this when you never go kyujo

#sumospoilers

Oh yeah the staredown incident. I remember there being talk of a beef between them for a while after that but obvs they’re cool now

Interestingly their record is 11-1 Hosh’s way. Hiradoumi has only beaten him once and it was Jan last year during Hosh’s yok run

I guess it makes sense to pick someone who doesn’t beat you too often to serve in your dohyo iri crew

Happy nakabi eve to those who celebrate

Enhoooooo!

Day 5c:
Holy shit. Takayasu's slaps are so powerful the camera had zoomed in beat to it.

Screenshot of two llm bots responding to a post about Midorifuji’s heart condition. Full of meaningless pablum and weird non sequitur similes.

weird to see those llm bots that say nothing to each other all day randomly latch on to Midorifuji’s heart condition

hoping for Midorifuji’s full recovery and a swift death to these things

Onosato kickflip from last year's Haru basho

We got killer Oho today with that armlock

Barring a miracle Aonishiki won’t earn the rope this time

#sumospoilers

Welp, wide open basho

#sumospoilers

Kirishima looks like he intends to regain ozeki and maybe not stop there. The change in confidence is clear

Can you believe the skin tone is just fountain pen jnk? (Diamine Autumn Oak)

After day 5 Takanosho is the sole leader. He’s had 3 Jun yushos including a playoff loss to Terunofuji. Gotta say he’s a legit chance to pull an upset.

Nobody say it, don’t you dare

Haru26. Day4. #sumo #haru #sketchbook

Every time I get to see Hoshoryu do a cool throw my mood is instantly improved for the rest of the day
