I thought it would be fun to share a little game.
Each of us would write down what we believe would happen sometime during the year 2012.
Then at the end of that year, we go back and open last year's predictions to see who was right.

I'll venture to set up a couple of suggestions for this game.

1) Please refrain from murder attempt predictions. (To avoid legal issues)
2) No fighting please or over ruling, no Baba / Anna / Jaya / Maya / Mamata stuff .... there's other threads for that.
3) Please be as specific as possible, no generic predictions - play fair please.

Thanks

I'll kick this off by predicting 2012 as not the end of the world, but economical and financial collapse, Maybe this is what it is meant by THE END ......
 
The woes of the Android handset/tablet makers will continue into this year. Apple will continue on its "Destroy Android" policy.
 
1) Few countries might abandon USD and come out with local currencies in the US, may be in June

2) A big earthquake would take place in April

I believe he means using another currency as the yardstick which is done now by the USD. But, its not gonna happen.
 
Smart investors make loads from a largely fluctuating, and broadly falling market (duh!)
Retail space sees 'correction' in prices, particularly in the saturated areas, either by way of reduction or no increase
 
The world won't end, but there will be lot of destruction and death due to natural calamities. The economic depression will get worse. Unfortunately I don't see anything to look forward to in 2012

Sorry for being unclear, few South American countries (like Ecuador) are planning to come out with their local currencies to curb inflation and forego USD (read somewhere...might not take place in 2012, but anyway we are into wild predicting, right :P )

We will be visited by aliens from a far off solar system. They will provide us with tech to make spaceships. Also a new element will be discovered.

Also one very close miss with an asteroid which if impacted, might have created havoc on earth.

I don't think they will give us new spaceships...because we will attack them using their ships...humans suck... :D
 
1. People will be pissed on 29 Feb as they have to work one extra day to get salaries.

1.Major scientific findings in particle physics from CERN will reshape our scientific knowledge.
