Call the Top 8, win $50!

Hey everyone. Now that pools are out, I thought I would do a fun little twist on the inevitable "guess the top 8" thread that will emerge for MKX at Evo. Rules are below.

There are likely to be a ton of posts, so if possible, once top 8 is finalized, please post again and tag me if you know that you did pretty well. I will be at Evo but I will be checking this thread. If you are also at Evo, and you got the high score, I would be happy to meet up with you and pay you in cash right there. Otherwise, you'll get the $50 via paypal. Good luck, everyone!

What you need to post:
1) Write down who you think the Top 8 will be.
2) Put 4 of them in winners, and 4 in losers.

Scoring:
2 points for each correct player that makes the top 8
1 bonus point for correctly calling if they'll be in winners or losers

Example post:
sonic fox (W)
pig of the hut (W)
DJT (W)
MIT (W)
dizzy (L)
skkra (L)
PPJ (L)
clint the beast (L)

Tagging some people who I think will have fun lists to get things started.

This going to be almost impossible. But why not.

DJT(W)
REO(W)
SonicFox(W)
Nivek(W)
Honeybee(L)
Perfect Legend (L)
MIT(L)
Gross (L)




Edit: @Nivek are you going to EVO? If not replace Nivek with F0xy

This would actually be very hard to predict correctly, almost as hard as the ncaa basketball brackets, because it's not about who are the best players, rather who is playing there best that day.

I thought PPJ wasn't going to enter

Yup. Always the case. That said, free $50 for trying!

Due to the indisputable fact that I went to the future and now know the results of EVO '15, I do feel that disqualifying me from this $50 prize would only be fair. See the thread below for proof:

sonic fox (W)
pig of the hut (L)
MIT (L)
Reo (L)
DJT (W)
Gross (L)

These are the only players I can for sure say will make top 8, still missing 2.

My only guess: SF Nightmare (W)

If you guys are trying to win the $50, you have to at least look at the paths to see what top 8 outcomes are actually possible. Me, Reo, Foxy, and Perfect Legend are all in the same path to top 8 so it's impossible for more than two of us to make top 8. And if two of us made top 8, one would have to be in winner's and one would have to be in loser's

Yeah I have more than one pair of shoes I only brought one pair to CEO lol

This would be a lot easier if the favorites were listed for each pool. That's probably gonna require some work though.
