I'd love to see Mitakeumi get on an Ozeki run. I didn't really think much of him until some of the interviews that Chris Sumo translated. I don't know how Ura's going to do up in the meatgrinder but he seems to have had a lot of luck picking holes in everyone and getting them just off balance enough to get wins. I hope Hoshoryu's fired up for this basho and pulls out some more real aggressive sumo

I agree 100% with the Shodai part.

Rules question: might just be dumb and missed it, but what’s the max number of people that can have a guy at each rank?

What happens if a basho is abandoned partway through? Do they just discard the results?

I don't think it's ever happened before, so there's no real precedent.

I’m pretty terrified we’re going to set a precedent this January and I guess I’m spending my time trying to imagine how this works.

It might depend on when they call it. If it’s suspended on day 3 or 4 then it’s probably just nullified, but if we cancel on day 12 or something then I could possibly see that everyone just either goes x-x-3 kyujo and they calculate on that, or just say that this one ran for 12 days without x-x-3 kyujo and recalculate KK/MK etc. But then if it’s an even day what happens to the 6-6 guys in KK/MK limbo, or what if there is a tie in the lead.

Any ties can be settled by a game of Mario Kart

They'll most likely keep individual records for overall bout stats but not adjust rankings if it's anything less than 10 days, but also there's no way they're canceling it mid-basho unless like half the stables pull out, so far it's just Tagonoura, right?

For sure, I think it'll have to be like 4+ rikishi pulling out before they even blink.

January had it pretty rough when all the Chiyos, Hak’s boys and I think a couple other smaller stables had to pull out. There were 7 0-0-15s in Makuuchi and 9 in Juryo so that’s the bar they’ve set so far.

WE ARE SMART
For all any of us know, there might be some sort of provision in the JSA bylaws for cancelling a basho partway through that nobody ITT knows about because of the language barrier.
