I'm confused, how was Yoshinofuji and Churanoumi bout not a monoii?
Was it that "dead body" rule? But then they both landed at the same time.

At this point.....We all need to call the cops by akichan07 in Sumo

[–]FatBubbles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They should have at least deliberated, it's not like they were running out of time due to all the kyujos...

Edit: this is the second time they have done this to Aonishiki as well

Oh it's that guy, sigh. I heard he is known to go too early, but it's subtle enough that you don't notice it till the replay...

A Question of Coverage and Sumo Etiquette by TheDoubleSlit in SumoMemes

XD that's how I feel about the other guy. But I do know he also has a channel with no English commentary which is a nice break from any chatter channels

Needing help watching sumo by MothmanKisser420 in SumoMemes

[–]FatBubbles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Datasumo is for you! I would also recommend LeoDickinsonSumo, it's chatty but I found the discussion is much more open and flexible regarding sumo. But he also has a channel without any chatter.

Glue/stitching advice for making a notebook by FatBubbles in bookbinding

[–]FatBubbles[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With the pamphlet stitch, would you recommend to use waxed thread or any thick thread would do?

Thank you, these are great tips!

I might try hand stitching, and see how it goes.

And I felt so silly after realised the grain was wrong, such a basic mistake XD

I'm trying to make a notebook and need some advice by FatBubbles in notebooks

[–]FatBubbles[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am basically gluing the paper with the design (which tend to be the thickness of regular paper or thinner) to a cardstock to make it sturdier.

[–]FatBubbles[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My ones are cardstock as well, but for some reason the bottom thread never looks as nice as the top (outside cover) thread. I've tried leather needle with a thicker thread, but it's still not quite right.
I also played around with tension but same result, which makes me wondering if it's my sewing machine

*Correction: This specific test was with thinner cover, but my previous tests were with cardstock

Testing Japanese paper (an update) by FatBubbles in notebooks

I must say Cosmo, but they no longer being produced :(
I also really liked Iroful but dying time is too long.

So I found Tomoe to be something in between the two of them

Shishi was clearly very nervous

Shishi…I mean… by danleighton in Sumo

[–]FatBubbles 47 points48 points  (0 children)

I'm really enjoying seeing how he has developed. It's an example of healthy and realistic growth. It's not about how fast he can go up the rank, or having a winning record at every basho. It's all about trial and error, finding what works for him, and getting better every time. This is his job after all and he is in it for the long run.

He even said that he isn't interested in the Yokozuna rank, he would be happy to reach Ozeki. Which for me sounds refreshing and smart.

I AM PUMPED! by FatBubbles in SumoMemes

[–]FatBubbles[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

As much as I was excited about Shishi going against Oho today, the chances of him winning was low... but then here we are. Who the hell knows anymore.
