All predictions are for 2012.
Homestuck:
Andrew Hussie releases at least one flash lasting longer than 10 minutes: 65%
Karkat, Terezi, John, Dave, Rose and Jade will not be permanently removed from story (Being killed off but returning as a ghost/sprite/whatever doesn't count as being permanently removed; being killed off and spending eternity in a dream-bubble and having no further contribution to the story does): 80%
The hints that Betty Crocker/Her Imperious Condesencion is running post-scratch Desrse will prove to be misdirection on Hussie's part: 20%
Baseball:
The San Francisco Giants will have a winning season. 80%
The Giants will make the postseason (either as NL West Champions or as a Wildcard team): 50%
Pablo Sandoval will hit at least 25 home runs: 80%
Ryan Braun will successfully appeal his suspension: 45%
Albert Pujols will finish the season with a batting average below .300: 65%
Considering that all but one of the character's named above are now about as close to being literally immortal as it's possible to get in the setting, I'm upping this to at least 85%.
Also, predicting that Terezi will get Godtiered as well (p=50%).
