I know for a fact that The Captain, Rocket Edge and myself definitely voted either extremely in the competition if not before it because I remember checking them out after I'd voted. I'm pretty sure we all voted beforehand. I honestly have no clue about the others, but I know there were a couple of other people saying Germany.

We should really close these polls once the competition starts, or at least after just the first few games. xD

EDIT: If Argentina and Brazil both win their remaining games, The Captain will have predicted 1st, 2nd and 3rd accurately. He's already correctly predicted the final, but he had Uruguay facing Brazil for third.

EDITRA: Freya and Mr. Shauna also declared their backing for Germany very early in. Unsure about DarkBahamut, EMS and Hux.
