Come on, give it a try..

It's a game called GTB. I promise you it will be very difficult and time consuming..And annoying. But gratifying. Like climbing up a flagpole with oily hands.

This is a formal invitation to play the "Guess the Banzuke" game!! 25 years, 158 bashos. Please play. It's free this time too..

Game rules: Guess the Banzuke. Simple. You get two points for a bulls-eye and one point for just getting the rank right. You get no points for for living in the past. 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 earliest entry wins. If still tied, I suggest the player with the most experience in gardening. It's up to you to check if you are on the list of entries. 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. Lately I have been waking up in the morning. My father used to say that if you wake up in the morning and nothing hurts, you are probably dead. And now, for some serious stuff:
