Will setup this thread now just in case I'm too busy later on dodging falling meteors and putting on my gas mask to type anything more than a quick message :)

Thematic music for your evening at no extra charge:

Is this related to the 2012 thing?

But of course. To me, any prediction of the end of the world is good cause for a party ;)

Not sure if the Mayans specified a time this is all going to kick off but it's just gone midnight where I am so I'm off to bed. I hope I don't sleep through the festivities :(

EDIT: Removed picture... *shudder*

I plan on recording the end of the world and posting it on YouTube so future races know what not to do in the event of catastrophe.

My prediction: Everyone will be releasing news about their latest inventions, songs, sales events, whatever tomorrow that it will cause mass chaos and bring about a drastic change to the world, thus fulfilling the belief some have that the mayans predicted a drastic shift to the world, not the end!

That or the song "Gangnam Style" proves itself to actually be a form of mind control and he takes over the world. I mean, his name is Psy! And his song's causing flash mobs! What more evidence do we need?!?!

I shall remain safe however, knowing i'm one of the few who hasn't subjected themselves to this aural infection. :)

As someone from the future (it's 1pm-ish on Friday in New Zealand), I can let you in on the secret that the world hasn't ended yet.

Beautiful sunny day, and no visible planets about to hit us.

However it's supposed to happen till about 11 minutes past midnight my time, so there is still over 10 hours to go yet.

I'll let you know then what happens, unless I forget or I'm sleeping.

I just saw someone walking a dog near my back yard.

Wasn't the Son of Sam instructed by dogs to kill? Coincidence?

I think not.

Actually, I feel like virtual DJing some apocalyptic tunnage, and I figure I may as well usher in the end of the world with the gang, so I'm going to pop over to IRC if anyone cares to join me :)

I can confirm everything is normal in Britain, it is still raining...

If the rain starts burning or turns into napalm I promise to press the remaining pieces of my skeleton onto the keyboard to let you know.

Edit: Well if it keeps on raining the world won't end but the, well, I'll let Zepplin take it from here....

Bonus points if you can do so with a phrase involving "tutt tutt" and "old chap".

I for one look forward to meeting and greeting our alien overlords and will be waiting for them with milk and cookies. (should that specific scenerio play out)

Been looking forward to such an event ever since i read "childhoods end" (by Arthur C. Clarke) when i was younger. after all, every ending is just a new begining. and i am convinced that any species capable of bridging the stars, will not be evil.

Heck they might even be the vulcans, comeing to take leonard nimoy back come, as he has now fulfilled his duty and contribution to man kind. that would also be a form of "childhoods end" as we would go, ohh look at that! spoc was real (and correct) all along! lets change our destructive human ways!

however if we should not be so lucky and it is truly then "end" instead of a new begining. then i hope for the zombie apocalypse. might as well have a lil fun and put all those video game skills to actual use. :D

The "T" and the "U" are close enough together on the keyboard that if the rain so happens to dissolve my forehead I reckon flapping my eyes about in that general location of the keyboard could prove successful.

All seems to be well in Australia so far, I haven't seen any murderous zombies roaming the streets, and the sun isn't any hotter or colder than I would expect.

Based on evidence from 1996, you may need to lower your expectations...

And by that he means direct exposure to the sun isn't searing the skin from our bones any faster than normal.

I had a cheeky wank and went to bed at 9pm for Y2K. Planning on doing much the same for this coming Apocalypse.

Also probably listening to this all day:

https://soundcloud.com/footmerc/dj-foot ... death-rave

That's some quality Juke/Trap/Post-Rave, smooth, not too bitey.

hahahaha, well so far opportunity, spirit and curiosity say mars is nothing more then a dead rust heap at the moment. so anyone comeing our way will have to come from much farther away then mars. thus requiring technoloy so advanced that once you CAN get here, anything the earth can provide will be readily availible throughout the universe for you. i cant tell you how disapointed i was when stephen hawking came out and said we shouldnt try and make contact because they would be just as ignorant as us.....

well either way Dec 21 is just an hour and a half away from my time zone, so we will find out eventually!

Alien invasion?
Zombie hoards?
Meteor? (gods ban hammer)
Super volcano?
Sun going nova?
An encounter with a black sun?
Chuck norris passing gass?

how do you guys think it will end?

wow im really digging the music on that site, very powerful. disonant yet harmonic at the same time, pretty and ugly! a very hard combination to pull off.

It really reminds me of the music from the interactive board game Atmosfear (minus the flutey bit). Its a timed game and the music on it slowly picks up tempo and tension its great within the last 5 minutes everyone is screaming and yelling "roll the fucking dice already!" one of the best board games I've played.
