As many of you know the world will end on 12/21/2012, presumably at 12:12am. This is pretty much because of the Mexicans or Mayans as they were called back in the old days. They built a calender that kept the Earth balanced on the back of a giant turtle but they were too lazy to finish it, and the calendar ends fairly soon.

My question to CCP is will we receive retroactive skill-points from 12/21/2012 until our accounts expire as in the event of global destruction we may have difficulty adjusting our skill-plan?

As a potential alternative can we cash in our months of playtime now for ~1.8m skill-points per month redeemed as this would allow us to benefit from otherwise inaccessible playtime?

Now with 100% less Troll.

Seems you're scrapping the barrel.


If the world ends on the 12/21/2012 I'll eat my hat that's after I buy it on the 12/22/2012 of course.

My 2011 calender ended on December 31st, yet the world didn't end.
Hallmark mislead me.

Have you read these forums, intelligence has no place here.

Any spelling, grammatical and punctuation errors are because frankly, I don't care!!

Tom has a point. Given that the Mayans were in the GMT - 6 timezone, CCP should have plenty of time that day to pre-reimburse skillpoints.

That was a good read, but they didn't debunk a pissed off god destroying the earth; so that is what I believe now. Taking bets on which god destroys earth in 2012.

My money is on Nu.

If it's a pissed off god, then why has he/she/it got to wait until the 12/21/2012 to get pissed off?

It's 21/12/2012.

It's bad enough that Americans can't spell "Colour", but the calender butchery has gone too far!

Your drugs... can I have them??

There is no such thing as a fair fight...

If your fighting fair you have automatically put yourself at a disadvantage.

In the event of the world ending that day, I think you might have bigger issues than your skill queue. Call me crazy.
