I don't get this board sometimes. Everyone wants people to make predictions. Then they like to shit on the person because of the prediction/fandom if it turns out wrong. Which causes fewer predictions. Non-virtuous circle.
Gilman and Snyder not so much as they have actually represented NLWC. It was weird seeing Dake. But he is there now, so it would be more weird to ignore his accomplishment at Worlds since at Worlds no one is representing their club.
