Make your bold bracket predictions here and win the admiration of your fellow politics fans! I'll start the tourney on the weekend.

The seeding is a tough break for Jiggs (15), whom many experts have predicted to be a favorite to finish deep in the tourney. The marquee matchup for this week has to be Low Key (4) vs. spanky (13) --don't be surprised if we see a big Cinderella upset here. Dids (7) vs. Foldn (10) could also be a fun game to watch.


Nichlemn and goofyballer were both eliminated on the bubble, and their fans will certainly be upset that the random number generator didn't give them a ticket to the big dance.

Hoping for a Fly-DiB showdown in the semis

#feelings coming up when Dids beats out foldn or Low Key advances

Gamblor wants it too badly. Voting bahbah for great justice.

Proph is cake. His badness comes and goes and is limited to ACism.

Fly in 2nd round will be exciting to watch.

Winner of Fly or myself vs. Ikes deeper in the tourney is, IMHO, the real POW champion. Deuces is bad in ways similar to Proph; he's got his niche but doesn't start fires as prolifically as others.

DIB wants it more than anyone, but DIB vs. Fly will be a tough matchup.

DiB so thirsty. Like a dog that doesn't care that its owner kicks him. Any attention is good attention.

its

Also, the person who "wins" gets permabanned, right?

Nice catch chimpstare

Tough break for the Missile. He could've made a deep run as a sleeper, but he's facing a real heavyweight in the first round.

yup

Hmmm, looks like I correctly predicted the 1-4 seeds.

Having Deuces in the field takes all the drama out of it.

I think winner should have to write a 250 + word apology to the forum, explaining what they need to improve on in order to not finish deep in POW 2. If it's insincere, one week ban. If it's incomplete after X days, one week ban.

No, the winner gets permabanned. Sorry rules are rules, hilarious that you're trying to negotiate on this.

Unless I'm mistaken, the permaban was offered as a suggestion like 5 posts ago. Did a mod cosign this? All I remember being cosigned was my suggestion that the winner takes SM2's spot in the thread title, and everything else IS a negotiation of sorts.

Somehow, I think that would go poorly for them.

Suggested under title for bracket winner: knower of bad posters

#ban Dids

No.

The tourney isn't mod-sanctioned in any way, it's just for the lulz.
