What’s here

What’s included

• Guess the Banzuke

  Drag last basho’s results onto the ranking you think comes next. Comparable cases, expected ranges, and a historical auto-arrange — then score 2 for the exact slot, 1 for the right rank.

• Results

  Favorites, today’s card in your timezone, spoiler mode, remaining-days yusho math, and lock lines for a record a bout would finish.

• Learn

  A bout, a basho (including what a broadcast looks like), the rank ladder, how to read a banzuke, kimarite, the year between tournaments, houses, and a glossary. English first.

• Ranks and kimarite on the sheet

  Hover or tap a rank code or a winning technique for a one-sentence gloss. Longer explainers live under Learn.

• Heya

  Who from each training house sat on this sheet. Heya are grouped by ichimon; each house page names the oyakata.

• Ichimon and oyakata

  Heya are grouped by clan. Each house page names the oyakata and sibling houses on the current sheet. Tachiai’s list, dated — not the Kyokai’s register.

• Optional account

  Email and password. Work as a guest — drafts, picks, and pins stay in this browser — then sign in and they move onto the account. They leave this browser when you sign out. The board still works without one. There is no password reset yet.

What isn’t

• Research

  Where a rank and record usually land next, how often a kimarite shows up, and who owns a matchup. Built but not public yet. The inspector still shows comparable cases on the guess board.

• GTB rooms

  Shared scoreboards for the guess sheet are built but not public yet. The guess board still works without a room.

• Season-long series

  A house league or a year-long table is not on Tachiai.

Start with the guess board or the desk during a basho.
