Turn out the lights, the party's over. All good things must end after tomorrow night, it looks like we are going to fold up shop on the official WWE prediction threads. (see last month). We've been doing this for quite a long time and it's looking like it's time to say good-bye.
The talkback threads will continue is some form or fashion and your informal event predictions will be welcome as comments following the final SmackDown or as part of the discussion of that pay-per-view event.
We're up later than I wanted, but that turned out to be the nature of my unplanned schedule the last 20 hours. Predictions must be posted by 8 p.m. ET on Sunday and cannot be edited after that time. Make them good ones.
TLC has eight scheduled matches, so everyone's total will be out of eight. If you refuse to pick on principle, we have no clue who you want, or you just plain miss it, you will get it wrong.

Please note that you must pick a winner. "[Champion] retains" must be taken as "[Champion] wins" as you cannot make a pick that allows you to be correct if the Champion wins or if they lose by disqualification or count-out.
Also note that "Draw" is an acceptable prediction and covers a double count-out, double disqualification and other situations that result in a no contest. Matches will not be thrown out due a draw.
Typically, the only circumstance that results in a match being thrown out is a change in the participants of the match (i.e. if an additional Superstar/Diva is added or a Superstar/Diva is removed and replaced by someone else). This is not a hard and fast rule however, and is done on a case-by-case basis.
Remember, matches announced after the thread has been posted will not be counted. There is no reason to predict a match that is announced Saturday as there will be no points awarded.
Please remember this thread encompasses anything to do with predictions. Should you feel the need to tally up your score, "challenge" people, or tell the story of the "match for the championship" that is going to fit in here, not the talkback thread for the event which will of course be posted Sunday.
