Perhaps a check of records in UDH is in order.  I am
pretty sure I Beaumaru have the worst won loss record
in the history of the UDH.  In fact were I to reverse
my usual UDH list and send that in to the regular
Hoshitori I would no doubt be headed to my 15th basho
as a Yokozuna.  Alas my regular Hoshitori entry tends
to be a great indicator of the imminent winning UDH
entry and visa versa.

I think it is about time to retire from the games.
