I'd like somewhere in the 30's. 34, 36, or 39 are my favorite numbers.

I didn't feel like putting this in General Sasuke, cause its spam really. In Sasuke 22, Joke comeptitor Kato Ayumu made it farther than the following people:
Akiyama Kazuhiko- The First Kanzenseiha Ishimaru Kenjirô Satô Hiroki- STQ Qualifier Nomura Hiroki- STQ Qualifier Luci Romberg- American Winner Komiya Rie- Kunoichi Finalist Yamada Katsumi- All Star Miyashita Junichi- Swimming Olympian Matsunaga Tomohiro- Wresting Olympian Watanabe Kazuhisa- Boxing Champion Wakky- Pro Sports #1 winner Takeda Toshihiro- All Star Ishimori Taiji- Pro Wrestler Kitagawa Tomoki- Rugby Player Along with about 40 other people.

I think that more people would have failed it. The thin rope in 19 was placed very far away. Competitors could hold on with one hand and reach the net. With the thick rope, most competitorswould have to hold on with both hands and reach for the with their. The distance in 19 would make it very hard to catch the rope with use of feet. The competitor would have to be very tall. ex. PAT

Even if Yamada beat every obstacle in Stage One, he would probably time out. Sasuke 22 had a very strict time limit for stage one and Yamada has timed out on courses with very leniant time. This ay be because he jogs to the next obstacle, wasting precisous time.

I didn't count the Spinning Log because its no really a killer like the other three. Anyways, which of these obstacles was the hardest? Or which one did you think was the best obstacle for the course?
I liked the original Rolling Log the most out of three. It wasn't too hard but still was very difficult for even experienced competitor. It also wasn't like the Sandan Rolling Maurata where the log would fall off and the competitor would have no chance of passing. It seemed random to me.

I wouldn't see any other obstacle in Stage 1 giving him trouble (seeing as how everyone and their mom can now beat the Warped Wall). Try telling that to Naoki Iketani.

I think Yamamoto might be able to overcome the Cliff Hanger. Last time he ever attempted the CH was in 9 or 12. With Body Prop and Curtain Cling gone, he might be less tired and overcome the SCH. After that its smooth sailing for Yamamoto.

If they're ten Americans, their numbers will probably be in order. ex. 54,55,56,57,58,59,60 I think that most of the Americans will be fast forwards. One full run, 4 FF, Two full Runs, 3 FF

I guess this means 10 people are going to Japan. 11 if you count Kevin.
I can't believe they would give so many spots for G4.

The results of that were very similiar to 22.
Levi failed the Slider Jump. The last person to attempt Stage Two failed the Metal Spin. Four people in Stage Three. Two failed the Shin Cliff Hanger. Two cleared the Shin Cliff Hanger. One person beat Stage Three. The last man standing was very close to KANZENSEIHA.

Betting updates:
Me VS BigBlind: If Yuuji beats the first stage then Blind has to post messages on the G4 fourms that say "I LOVE G4 AND ALL THEIR SHOWS" If Yuuji fails then I post the message.
Me VS Yamamotofan: If Yamada cries on camera then I lose. If he doesnt then YFan loses. Loser has to make a sig stating "Katsumi Yamada: The Only real all star!
Me VS Blind: If Kevin beats the JS, blind wins. If he fails it or before the JS, I win. Loser has to watch only G4 TV for a week.
Legend VS Cheif?: If a STQer who didnt compete in 22 passes stage one doesnt clear, then Legend wins. If not Cheif wins. There is no punishment on this currently.
Wow I'm in almost all the bets. I hope I dont lose.

. . . to the cancelation of Sasuke?
A big part of dozens of competitors lives revolves around Sasuke.
Including:
The All Stars, they have replicas of the course and train year round
The STQers, they put so much effort into getting on Sasuke
UNCLI members, they train like crazy on Cliff Hanger replicas
Americans such a David, who build obstacles and train on them
Some, such as Yamada Katsumi, have dedicated their lives to the contest.
How would they react to the cancelation on Sasuke?

im going to take this a prediction thread, and 5. How many people will fail the Slider Jump this time around? 30+ 8. Will TBS/M9 make any other big changes or will it be the status quo? prob not, but i think we'll see a circle hammer replacement that'll pretty much be rolling log 2.0, the effect that is. 5. I doubt that 30 peole will fail the Slider Jump. Only 22 people attempted it in Sasuke 22! I think that 15 will fail the Slider Jump out of 26 or 27 competitors. 8. The Rolling Log 2.0 has already been created. The Sandan Rolling Maruta sound familier?? The producers won't put two hard log obstacles in the same stage. I'm crossing my fingers for another bridge obstacle.
