Chinas economy will continue to slow, but will remain in growth.
More indecision will reign as Iran continues its nuclear program although the new Iranian leader may present himself as a moderate to try to reduce western pressure, but the nuclear program itself will continue.
The US Congress will continue to be divided on everything.
The UK will continue to dip in and out of recession.
Germany and France will struggle to work together as the EU faces another crisis in either Spain or Italy.

2013 won't be as bad as people fear nor as good as people hope. The United States will survive as will the citizens.

Some things will change and some things won't. But in the long run, everything will be OK. Not great, not horrible, just OK.

Armistead · 01-01-13, 03:04 PM

We'll be starting another end of the world thread near July...

The Detroit Lions will still suck.

AVGWarhawk · 01-01-13, 06:46 PM

The economy will grow in leaps and bounds.

Putin will allow the US to adopt Russian children. However, he will adopt them all to prevent the US from adopting.

The new Russian silent sub will actually be silent.

Obama will set the stage for a third term via Michelle running for Presidency.

The entire body of Congress will agree on something.

Jim will hit 100,000 posts.

I'll make three predictions.

1. A new single-player subsim will be announced.

2. Silent Hunter Online will be a success.

3. Political discussion will go out of style on GT.

Going to be a good year.

I predict that people will continue to post useless threads in GT.

soopaman2 · 01-01-13, 10:59 AM

Someone famous will die.

I will make at least 100 stupid posts, if not more.

I will make some kind of an ass of myself here.

Sailor Steve will win the lottery.

Pigs will fly.

The San Francisco 49ers will barely win the Superbowl.
