Growing up, I loved Selesnya. I think if I had to choose which one I would have the most fun with now, I'd have to pick Izzet. As long as there aren't drastic price or power level differences in the promos, I'll probably play one prerelease of Izzet and one of Selesnya.
Whichever one(s) has a cube-worthy prerelease card. All things being equal, I'll go Golgari for one and some other guild (probably Azorius) for another.
Izzet, because their steampunk-esque feel from the last block was pretty fun. Also, Izzet Wildfire in standard was my weapon-of-choice at that time. . . . also, no bias whatsoever in my sig. Just saying.
Rakdos! They have the best mosh pits and awesome creepy lolis. Best flavor text ever: "Start knockin' heads, boys, and don't stop 'til the ragamuffyn sings!". I love the flavor of Rakdos and had alot of fun playing the cards. Plus, foil Nihilistic Glee was a freakin' boss.
Izzet. Niv commands it. And Red/Ble is my second favorite color combination [U/G is my favorite]
I will doing at least two more events, with Azorious and then Golgari. If I do anymore, it will be Selesnya. I just never like R/B or Rakdos in flavour.
Waaay to early. I'm partial to Golgari because my favorite deck is Dredge, but Dredge is out. If Golgari's new mechanic sucks/prerelease card sucks, I'll go with something else.

Izzet seems like the most fun, so I want them but my choice depends on how the promos look. Not to mention how many people end up picking it, Izzet just might be too popular for my liking. My next choices are Azorius and Selesnya in that order.
If I now happen to go, I will probably go with Azorious
- I really like that Sphinx art that was revealed, I love big creatures
- The emblem is symmetrical, the die wont look stupid
I don't have too much love for any of the guilds in Return to Ravnica, it is in Gatecrash it will be a tough one for me, I don't know if I want to go with Orzhov or Boros there if I now yet again happen to go
It is also not too unexpected that Izzet is in the lead
For Gatecrash Boros all the way. Just like for the whole Scars year I picked Phyrexia for everything.
Since Boros isn't a choice for Return I'll probably pick something based on the promo/cards they get or I'll just pick a fun guild. Like no matter what Golgari is probably out because I'm anti-dredge. Rakdos might be fun.
Most likely Izzet for me, though of course it will depend on what cards are printed (and what the pre-release promo is for each guild!). Izzet is my favourite color combination in Magic though so unless they make it real bad I'll want to play it.
Of course, the cards may affect your decision, but we all have a good idea of what the guilds are about.
If you go to multiple prereleases and will try multiple guilds, just pick the guild you're most excited to play.

Orzhov (and the other missing guilds) are in Gatecrash.
They aren't in the poll because they aren't in Return to Ravnica. They're in Gatecrash. Same with the other 4 absent guilds.
OT: Golgari. You receive a faction pack at the pre-release, and anything w/ black in it is bound to have removal. removal is good.
My Friend Code is: 0146-9645-8893
That...is horribly disappointing...
Then I guess I'll be going for Izzet.
