Re: Hoshitori Game suggestion

Wow! after years of "lurking" Kintaro-san's suggestion compelled me to
actually post a message...

I think that this would help even the playing field between those who really
know what they are doing and those like me who haven't quit figured out how
to push the right buttons on those elevator rikishi!!!

Of course, some might argue that it is unfair to those Ozeki and Yokozuna,
but then, sumo is about overcoming unfairness, right?

(I mean, Takanonami's ride is always less bumpy than Akebono's and
Musashimaru's, isn't it?)
