This is a formal invitation to play the "Guess the Banzuke" game!! 25
years, 153rd basho. Please play. It's pretty much free.

Game rules: Guess the Banzuke. Simple. Fully automated entry form. You get
two points for a bulls-eye and one point for just getting the rank right.
You get no points for believing someone is on an Ozeki run.  Tiebreakers -
Most total guesses, then we check the banzuke backwards - getting the lower
half right will be important.  The most correct guesses in the last ten
places will win the tiebreaker. If still tied, we go up a ranking at a time
like a penalty shootout. If still tied, the special committee will convene
and its decisions will be binding but never revealed. Official secrets
act.  If you're still trying to figure this out, don't. It's up to you to
check if you are on the list of entries.
<http://sumodb.sumogames.de/gtb/GTBEntryList.aspx> It's going to be your
fault if you don't notice that your entry went missing in the Internet
void. No late entries will be expected or accepted. Those are the rules,
and the rules will never be changed.

For rules that will never be changed, standings and overthinking:

For the nifty entry form, which will hopefully continue to do what it's
intended to do:  http://sumodb.sumoga...b/GTBEntry.aspx
