I mean if you want to get technical, only the rapture is happening this Saturday. Thus the world won't really 'end'. We can look at several theories as to the outcome

1) South Park Theory: Since only Mormons will be going to heaven, I suppose Utah will be very very empty come Saturday. Then again, it's the Mormons and it's Utah. It could take months before anyone notices they're gone. Since 99.9999% of the population will still be exist, really nothing will change. We'd have to find new people to run the Boy Scouts I guess, and some prime real estate will open up in Utah but that's about it.

2) Left Behind Series Theory: I suppose Kirk Cameron would be tickled pink to see his movie made into reality?

3) Heaven's Gate Theory: It'll probably be aliens taking us up for food or probing us. If so, better pork up so that their tractor beams have a harder time lifting you.

Mormons don't know how magnets work, see my other post above.
And since they don't know it, the Mormons can't use magnets!
So, if I go to hell I can use magnets!

hmmp it would be nice if it would just be a disaster. not the world ending. though many people will die even it's a disaster, maybe i will die too.

but i won't believe it until i see it.

I think it's just going to be a disaster like a nuclear attack and fallout.
Check out Baba Vanga's prophecies. Unlike this guy, she actually predicted stuff that came true. The future dates (hundreds of years into the future) seem way out of line, but whatever.

http://www.theastralworld.com/prophecies/babavanga.php
The 2010 prediction could have came true, we don't know. Remember the North and South Korea incident in November? That could be linked in the end to be the cause of a world war like when America stepped in.

"2010: World War 3 begins in November 2010. Starting as a regular war, it will progress to a nuclear and chemical war. Vanga says the war will be finished by October 2014.

2011: As a result of the war, radioactive showers will destroy almost all life in the Northern Hemisphere. The remaining Europeans will face an even further threat from the Muslims who will use chemical weapons to finish them off.

2014: As another result of the chemicals and nuclear weapons during the war, most of the world population will have skin cancer and other skin diseases.

2016: Europe is nearly uninhabited.

2018: China will become the new superpower. The exploiters will become the exploited.

2023: The Earth's orbit will change.

2025: Europe is still very underpopulated.

2028: A new energy source will be found. Hunger is overcome. A manned space flight will leave for Venus.

2033: The world water levels will rise as the polar ice caps melt.

2043: Economy is good. The Muslims will run Europe.

2046: All bodily organs can be reproduced, becoming the easiest and most popular method of treatment.

2066: The U.S. uses a new climate-changing weapon on Muslim controlled Rome.

2076: Communism takes over.

2084: Nature is reborn.(??)[/p]

There's more, but click the link. Bunch of crazy crap. Hahaha.

We have quite a lot of time left.

Could have doesn't fly if you can allegedly predict something. What war happened in November 2010? Nothing? I remember a lot of my friends were freaking out over this and then "poof!" December came. Notice it doesn't say something in Nov 2010 happens, or the start of ww3 happens, she says it begins. Which means, if she was right, hence believable, we'd all be in a big war right now.

EDIT: Straight from her site...

Earth's age is circa 4,54 billion years. Oldest life forms on earth are circa 3,5 billion years old. If you expect this crazy rock and mud ball we call "Earth" to fall apart on saturday, you're wrong in the head. Plain and simple. Years in "hundreds", "thousands" or even "millions" have little relevance as far as Earth is concerned. Life will be perfectly fine as long as the Sun doesn't reach a size that'll scramble it.

Her 'predictions' were as general and insipid as most other people.

http://english.pravda.ru/science/mysteries.../75360-Vanga-0/

Almost all her 'prophecies' are so general they can apply to basically anything happening in the world at any given time. At NO point did anyone ever say "On Sept 11 two jumbo jets will crash into the Twin Towers in New York City" (and don't use that fake Nostradamus quote either). Basically they took a general 'something horrible with happen' and shoe-horned in 9/11 'similarities'. You go from bretheren=>brothers=>twin towers??? Really that's the best you can do?

“Numerous catastrophes and disasters will shake the world. The mentality of the people will change. They will be divided by their faith…” (date unknown)

Wow.. .you predicted bad shit is going to happen in the world. Thanks for the update Sherlock.

“We are witnessing the events of paramount significance. Two big leaders shook hands.

Really? Because this doesn't happen whenever 2 world leaders get together for ANYTHING.

“Everything will melt away like ice yet the glory of Vladimir , the glory of Russia are the only things that will remain. Russia will not only survive, it will dominate the world. (1979)

So during the height of the cold war you predict Russia is going to rule the world. Note how this wasn't the case for most of the 90s after the cold war. Also note how China is by far a much more powerful force than Russia is now, even with it's resurgence in due to oil and gas reserves. 'dominate' is a relative term it seems.

There's hardly anything 'specific' or remotely predictive about anything she said.

Yeah, the later stuff seems complete bullshit. Not saying I follow her or whatever.

It says the start of the war happened then. It could have been a secret deal between leaders, or this attack. We won't know until it happens, and gets written down in history books. Much like this May 21st stuff, we don't know until it happens.

I'm excited to see what that group of people say about this on sunday.

  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves

    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages

  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea

    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
