Hoshitori Results for Hatsu 2008, Day 1A new year has started with new sumo and new Hoshitori games. The biggest news is - not Asashoryu's return, but the move from the Hoshitori website to a new server. I know that websites moves are rather unpopular, but I had no choice anyway as the old site has to be closed. I took it upon me to sweeten the deal by enhancing the Hoshitori website with new features.
If you click on any player on this page you are getting the day-by-day results for this basho, and more importantly, the complete selection for the player with point breakdown. On the left are links to the Hoshitori selection stats and to the Hatsu 2008 banzuke.
Another interesting feature is having all results back to Nagoya 1994, the first Hoshitori basho, available. From the aforementioned player pages you can get a complete history for this player by following that link on the left side. Especially interesting for Obana who has played in all basho bar one.
Oh, and the Hoshitori results should be updated automatically now after the last makuuchi bout of the day, so you can check this page right away to see how you have done. You will just have to wait to read my comments of the day.
Speaking of these daily comments, several upsets today - including Ama, Baruto and Homasho - made for lower scores. Takanodoitsu avoided all these pitfalls, having only Goeido as major point loser. Only Terarno and Baka to stay close.
The number of players is slightly up to 143 and most importantly we have seven new players and two returnees.
