Nice hat mage.
No seriously, the world is just gonna exist till the end of time? The sun has to expand SOMETIME, therefore burning our planet and eventually engulfing it before combustion  :cookieMonster:

No no no no no no!
The people who first thought 2012 will be the end, made an enormous mistake in their calculations.
There are 13 baktuns in the Mayan calendar. They say "last baktun is over = Earth dies", they say that will be when the date is 13.0.0.0.0 (2012). But we still have another baktun before the supposed end. All 13 would be over when the calendar pops to 14.0.0.0.0.


We're not going to die :D

*COUGH* 20 Bak'tuns *COUGH*


What? No, there are 13 :D
The Mayan's worked the long count on a system of 20. They didn't exactly leave an instruction book behind, but it would only make sense that 20 Bak'tuns would mark the end of long count, not 13.

Don't use the 2012 Movie Guide as a source, they lie :c

I don't use that as a source, I know they lie :C
Still, there are 13 baktuns.

Yes, there are 13 Bak'tuns. The long count just ends at 20 Bak'tuns.  :cookieMonster:

Yes, there was another count of 20 baktuns.
But there are only 13 baktuns :C




Hehe.
It was a trap all along!

Because what an ancient civilization thinks about the end of time is totally relevant.
