Why didn't they create a day for the 366th day of the year? Because the cycle reset itself.

yes, the long count cycle is comprised of the 2 minor calendars. all i am saying is the maya never created the next long count calendar.
either way, 2012 is simply the end of the long count cycle. the fact the maya never wrote/laid out the next long count cycle does not mean they thought 2012 to be the end of the world
