Week 7 chat and predictions

[Certain]

Season 3

Welcome to Week 7, where we try to unmoor this league from its existential crisis of the moment. My efforts to play nice last week set the schedule askew, but I don't think it should be a big issue. As a result, you will have one less day to write this week.

I was a bit generous with those who signed in and didn't vote this week, but voting is required and is the only way to keep a league such as this one afloat. So please do your voting or be punished in the future. Like in Week 3, you will be allowed to choose your own topic this week. The thread is up already. Here are the matchups:

Week 7 championship: oats (6-0) vs. timeless (4-2)
Week 7 contender match: Frank (5-1) vs. King Ra. (3-3)
zygote (4-2) vs. Vividlyvague (4-1)
El Pancake (2-2) vs. Split Eight (0-1)
Totoro (0-4)* vs. Witty (0-2)
dead man (0-1) vs. Bladed Thesis (0-0)
Certain (0-0) vs. rhetoric (0-0)
fraze (0-0) vs. Fig (0-0)

* — Totoro may turn one loss into a win by voting on two extra battles this week.

Also, please vote in the poll.
