2012

[Chrono]

I'll tell you one thing, 2012 is not an end.
It's a beginning.

OF THE END!

[Chrono]

OF THE END!

No no. Not at all.

MAYANS
THEY ARE NEVER WRONG

They all DIED!!! Bet they couldn't predict that.

[Kalphiter]

I don't have to graduate high school.

[blaman]

I'm confused.
How could a human made system of keeping track of time predict the end of the world? It has no connection to... anything that could threaten mankind or Earth, so why do people pick dates to predict the end? (Examples of predictions based on date: 666, 2000, 2012)

This happens

i believe the end start in 2012. i thought the world would actually end in 2012 but seeing as it has been over half a year into Obama's term, nothings going to happen till then. there is the bigger chance that nothing will happen and we will go on with our semi-peaceful lives and thats why im not going to live like its the end of the world.

Dug this up just for all of ya'alls.

Well hey, I was just visiting the temple of Chichen Itza!

SIT ON MAH LAP AND LET MEH TELL YEW A STOREH, BOY.

The temple has 2 calenders, one is about 3 months (or four?) long, for women to follow for their pregnancy (I guess they had a mating period.) The other closely follows our Gregorian calender, but has days of 90-ish, several months, and one extra with 5 days (465...?). The Mayan calender ends on March 21st 2012 for no apparent reason, but there are several phenomena that occur on this day that baffle scientists as to how the Mayans could predict them:
1. There will be a full solar eclipse.
2. A planetary alignment will occur.
3. The biyearly phenomenon of a snake going down the Chichen Itza Temple will occur. This happens every equinox.

It is still unknown as to why the Mayans chose this date. Some random conspiracy immediately started screaming "OH GOD, OBVIOUSLY WE'RE ALL GUN DIE IN SOME METERO SHOWER. OBVIOUSLY. RIGHT?
No.

Astronomers would have seen that coming.

tl;dr, Shut up, it won't happen.

I think I used some wrong word somewhere at some point or whatever, because I remember this earning me another (backfired ) drama topic, but whatever.

 Actually no, this reality was the seventh beginning to the Mayans, this is the last of the seven world ends that came before us. This is believed to be the last one to their belief.

[FireFish]

Ok, they were using a big circle rock, right? They messed up and then they ran out of room. Thats it.
