How would you avoid getting caught if you had the Death Note?

>>159445823
Stop writing everyones names like an autist?

Just set things up so that people are dying at all hours of the day all over the world. You can keep it up indefinitely with no chance of getting caught.

>>159445823
you would never get caught, you only get caught due to plotarmor fag

>>159445823
just don't be a fucking retard like Light

>>159445823
I would start killing people from other countries, and then I would start going for criminals from my own country, obviously.
Which would be a shitty idea since it would only create riots, social fear, and public outrage

>>159445858
How do you even find the names for all this shit

>>159445823
Kill L.

It would be easy in real life. Light only got caught because he was a retarded faggot.

>>159445901
Facebook

>>159445958
There are detectives IRL with more luxury abilities than L.

Light only got caught because of his massive ego at the start and at the end.

>>159445823
It would be easy if you just write accident for every death. Light doesn't write anything so that the world knows he exist.

>>159445823
Not namefagging like a retard

>>159445958
>>159446023
Light got caught because he became obsessed with killing L, Mello and Near instead of just ignoring the little shits and focus on playing god

I wouldn't kill anyone
The most I'd use it for is write my own name and then make one of the conditions for my death being holding hands with my waifu

>>159445823
Not use it or use it extremely sparingly to prevent serious crimes that happen in front of me
As long as you're not a complete psychopath adhering to a rigid schedule like Light you should be fine

>>159445873
Wrong. Light got caught because he wanted to be known as a god. Even if it's strange af that people suddenly start dying of heart attacks, it doesn't take a genius to eventually notice a pattern.

>>159446799
If the conditions of death written cannot physically be achieved, then the person will simply die of a heart attack

You would have to be stupid AS FUCK to get caught with a DN. Basically kill everyone you know except yourself.

>>159447529
Congrats, you are stupid enough to get caught with a DN.

>>159445823
Not making a schedule for the killings, nor killing everyone in the same manner for starters.

>>159445901
The internet. Especially if you're fluent in English, since so many non-English countries have English versions of their news.

>>159447529
>Basically kill everyone you know except yourself.

Yes, that's basically the only way you could get caught. Anything else, and unless you *want* to get caught...I don't see it. 7 billion suspects, how the hell is anyone going to narrow you down unless you let them?

>>159445823
take control of the entirety of human society from the afterlife to their minds

You space them out by a couple years

>>159445823
By killing people from distance and not falling for cheap tricks.

If you're going to be using the internet don't be an idiot and leave a trail. Make sure to always use a VPN.

Also kill people by murder/suicides. None of that heart attack bullshit.

>>159447529
>getting away because everyone in your family and social circle mysteriously died
>everyone but you
Genius! How do you come up with such stupid-AS-FUCK proof tactics?

Use it on the world government so I get insta pardoned if caught

>>159445823
I would only kill people im high standings of power that I want to get confessions out of, that would otherwise never come out.
I don't really want to use it anyway.

i'd kill all big politicians of the planet in a matter of hours

Dont tell people you exist. Thats it.

>>159448116
Please not Trump, just kill all of his opponents and see what he does with complete control.

Just not trying to kill L or the FBI guy in the first place would have done enough.
If Light just ignored them and changed up his patterns every once in a while he would have been fine

just write how they will die instead of just writing their names and have them all get killed by heart attack which is really not suspicious at all.

why are the last 12 episodes so much worse than the first 25?

Not using it because of how unethical it is.

>>159448116
This.

>>159448382
It could be argued that not using it is unethical

Glorious

>>159448182
This.
The dumbest shit he ever did was announcing he exists and that he was punishing criminals.
Also suicides/accidents/natural deaths.

>>159448456
I'm not god though and I refuse to do something with a power arisen outside of natural human affairs.

Maybe just take the bargain for the death eyes thing and just become a fortune teller for when people are going to die. Should be interesting to see how people react to it. Don't really care if it doesn't make me rich.

>>159445856
the only good post in this thread

>>159448684
Fair enough. Engaging a Death Note at all sounds like a terrible idea.

The biggest problem with the Death Note is if you make the mistake of using it only at certain times, or in a certain country, or acting on information in a certain language (this isn't really a problem for English/Spanish/French, but if you're Polish or something then you're fucked).

If you write in the book "person x will die at time y", and you have at least one person for every hour, and keep your killings spread out geographically, nobody can catch you. If you live in a really big country (the US, China, India, etc.) you can operate in your home country alone with virtually no fear of ever getting caught.

>>159448549
I guess you could put "Dies fucking the first person they see" for a death, but that's pretty incriminating (not to mention a bitch to clean up, kind of inefficient, and probably involves killing an innocent person). Maybe you could just use the Death Note to master the art of picking up chicks at funerals?

>>159448756
i wonder if you write a japanese name in english it'd work

>>159447759
how would you write all the names?????

>>159448812
I think so. Light almost certainly wrote the names of Russians and Arabs without knowing cyrillic or arabic scripts. Same goes for Chinese, Koreans....basically everyone who doesn't use the latin alphabet.

>>159446544
playing god becomes boring fast

>>159445823

>>159448768
He still announced his and existence by using heart attacks as his primary means of murder and making it obvious that criminals were dying for no particular reason.

>>159445823
Write the names of the people who're trying to catch you?

>>159445823
Not sure I would bother. Realistically, it's untraceable.

>>159448628
He didn't get caught because he killed criminals.

He got caught because he killed criminals in the Kanto region and L's impersonator who was broadcasted to only those who lived in the Kanto region. From there, it became a child's play by L to find out his identity. The only problem for L was to prove it.

All this fags would be scared to death to even write a name.

>>159449014

Read this.

https://www.gwern.net/Death%20Note%20Anonymity

It explains in detail what Light did wrong.But basically the schedule of the deaths revealing that he was a japanese student and letting L know that he was related to the police were the biggest fuck ups.

>>159449003
HE got caught due to plot armor a,dn being a retard with kira meme. OP question is how to avoid being caught and you would never be caught unless you kill people who are close to you.

The thing is Light wanted to be the god of the new world and he wanted people to know that someone was passing judgement on criminals.

Obviously if you only kill in secret there's no way to get caught.

>>159448276
Because the first of those 12 contain something known as a pleb filter

i'm asking to all, how would you get names without the internet? at the end the best way to not get caught is not writing any names or killing random small amounts of people

>>159449253
plot armor, deathnote would gotten axed if it was just light killing people with his secret power. There is no reason to get caught unless you kill people close to you or want people to know you are killing people with a meme tier religion

Back in the day, there were these things made of paper that were published and a lot of them had names and pictures. We called them magazines, books, and newspapers. And there were stands where you could buy them.

Well that assumes you're killing world leaders indiscriminately and very often. In which case you have no idea what you're doing and deserve to get caught anyway.

>>159450288
jokes on you im pedro

>>159450358
If the amount of people killed becomes noticeable there will be enough pressure by the population to hunt down who's doing it whether you're targeting leaders or not.

So any scheme that gets you noticed will probably be a bad idea in the long run. Fear of death is a really strong motivator.

>>159450358
idk I think that as long you change it from the default death of a myocardial infarction to something more complex like an assassination or a car accident,and not on your own soil you would be fine

>>159450512
heart attacks are common, if you increase the global amount by a bit and spread it evenly nobody will notice.
lots of people getting assassinated is more likely to make a dent in the statistics.

>>159445823
Accidents without random heartbreaks. Also burn the death note after it appears.

>>159450616
a correlation of you killing criminal or just people in general with heart attack which let face it is a vast amount that you will not autisticly specify every death with a correlation of world leader will get you caught.

>>159450616
yeah but the whole point of having such power is to change the world so your kills have to be in important people and for that reason noticeable it may be atributed to some disease, but soon people will see your plan

When people talk about figuring out that somebody's using a death note, are we assuming that it's common knowledge that death notes are real in this scenario? Because if you didn't know that it already existed, absolutely no one would jump the the conclusion "all these people are having heart attacks because of a Japanese death spirit that's being summoned from names being written in a book".

>>159450869
if you kill important people it will get noticed eventually anyway. better make sure that your kill your quota before they notice. maybe just kill them all in a big event at once.

They don't even have to be real. The anime exists. Someone might recognize the pattern.

>>159451083
Yeah but you would have to prove that Japanese death spirit books are real before any court would convict even if they somehow figured out who had the book.

>>159451148
>to much reasonable doubt
>all evidence is circumstantial
>people will have to be crazy enough to believe to even do any illegal serious punishment
>some high up guy has to believe that your note kills people and be crazy enough to move you to domestic terrorist status

>>159451213
Plus people are glossing over the step of "figure out who has the book". If you're only killing public figures then absolutely nothing links you to their deaths other than the fact that you know they exist, which applies to everybody else.

If I were to kill Kim Jung Un, would anyone know or would I accidentally cause South Korea, China and Japan to get fucked? I just have to remember the face of the guy and give the fucker a heart attack in 60 seconds to be generous to him.

>>159451023

>>159446544
>>159446023
Light only got caught at the end because

1) Mello went on his suicide attack
2) Mikami didn't know Light had it under control
3) Mikami wrote the exact same thing Light did so Light didn't notice Mikami had done something.

Near himself says Light would have won if it wasn't for this chain of events that fucked him in the final hours.

>>159451293
North Korea is such a political goat rope that I would call it impossible to say what Un's abrupt death would cause. It could be anything from relatively peaceful transfer of power to another family member to a military coup to world war three.

Isn't it true that anyone who uses a Death Note lowers their natural lifespan? Seems to imply they might get caught with it in some way eventually (unless you'll just die of a heart attack sooner, but that sounds kind of silly)

>>159451014
at start people will attribute it to other causes but if you are killing with a plan in mind people will notice it has to be done by some country or group or person even if it's unexplainable how

>>159451427
no faggot that if you want shinigami eyes

>>159447566
>>159447641
>>159447984
You misunderstood, I said that's the only way you would get caught

>>159445823
Only kill well-known people who have a lot of power. Your first kills could just be a few shitty presidents, before they die you make them hold a speech or write down a list of rules any world leaders will have to follow in order to not be magically killed. You'll have complete power of the world, and it'd be literally impossible to track you down.

>>159451464
Yeah but the thing about motive is that there are thousands of shut-ins with conspiracy theories and the desire to kill lots of public figures. Most of them are on /pol/ or /x/ right now. That's why profiling serial killers is such a notoriously imprecise science. Even if somebody kills enough people for a motive to be clear, without direct evidence it's still impossible to say who they are or what they're like with any degree of reliability. Most profiles of the Unabomber before he was caught had no consistency in what sort of a person he was; and a lot pegged him for a clean-dressed person with a white-collar job instead of a bearded nut living in out of a hut in the woods.

>>159451374
I thought Light lost at the end because Mikami took the death note to the gym and one of the agents replaced it with a regular notebook?

Use the Death note for personal gain. Just kill everyone who needs dying months or years apart by illness and a few accidents

>>159451374
Light only got caught with conclusive evidence at the end. Near and L figured out very quickly that it was Light.
The only reason anything went on after L was suspicious of Light was because L/Near don't kill (with the exception of those who are already on death row). In reality a threat of this scale would be eliminated and covered up with little care for evidence.

just become an angel of death; find names of people who want to die but can't due to euthanasia laws and have them die peacefully in their sleep

also, the best cover for killing world leaders is easily just having Isis kill them, or having them choke on something at a televised function

Misa, ironically, was the smartest Death Note user at the whole show. Sure she was a spoiled airhead idol, but she did what any smart person would do...use it for personal gain only.
No high ideals, no god complex, no justice seeking bullshit. You are in my path? Well, time to die...

Once you use it you are already cursed, so throwing it away would not solve a thing, you might as well just use it.

It's easy to not get caught when you hardly talk to anyone

>>159452073
But that's my point, the more people try to find you the more contradictory theories you'll have. Assuming a lack of direct evidence all anybody will be going on is "wants to kill lots of public figures", which leaves you with a suspect list consisting of entire demographics. There's nothing you can use to narrow that down.

wrong light only lost becaue of mikami

I'd kill all the satanist occultist reptilian pedophile psychopathic jews and elites of the secret societies. In other words those who are on top of the human pyramid trying to control, enslave and do other inhumane things to us. Pretty easy to pick them too, a lot of "conspiracy" sites explain them in detail. Even those presumably in the shadows.

>>159447453
pretty much, if he had just wrote "accident" most people wouldn't blink that criminals are dying thinking they deserved it/it was karma. because he chose heart attack it raised eyebrows. but he wanted it that way to send a message

How the fuck do you get tracked down doing that? Even if you just kill everyone by heart attack there's no way you're gonna get caught because there's absolutely no trail, nothing at all leading to you.

The thickness of the Note should increase:

By assuming that the number of pages will increase every time you use the Note pages to make it endless, we would clearly see that the Death Note will get thicker, since the number of pages is rising, and we would clearly see that the Note of Light would be too thick after his long years using it.

>>159445823

Light only got caught because he wanted to be found. If there was one defining moment, it was killing the fake L on TV, which allowed L to narrow down a world wide search into a single prefecture.

Still a monumental task to ever catch the guy since he could just leave the country or district.

Light further allowed L to hone in on him by giving away that Kira had classified police intel, which allowed L to limit the search to a few hundred people. This is the first point where it became possible for L to find Kira.

In one real life situation where DN actually exists, it also means Shinigamis and the death kingdom also exists. It's forbidden to throw a DN at human world, and Ryuuk ruse caused problem for him, making one DN getting confiscated by death police. So even using it on low key would usually ends up in trouble

>>159454331
everyone he killed initially was in the local news, and after that they were all featured on sites/tv with their names and faces. They caught on that he needed these after airing that bait video in different regions that the first few deaths were in. I watched this shit years ago how'd you forget the way L owned his ass early on?

since he was the chief of police's son he'd have a hard time to just simply fly over the country
although since he was applying for an university he could simply try to get in an uni abroad

How about not get greedy? Light got caught because he wanted to kill everyone the world seem fit to kill off. Play god.

>>159454652
You don't realize how stupid you sound.

What happened in the anime was ridiculous. In real life, even if they narrowed down the search vicinity, they would have no further way to track him down and all you did was narrow suspects to millions of people. Fucking wow. Do you not already understand how hard it is to catch a murderer with that amount of information?

In reality he would never be caught.

Does Heaven exist in the DN universe? If I were to somehow get a DN that would mean Heaven/Hell exists right? I'd probably be on my best behavior.

>>159454666

The point is that there are numerous, infinite ways to avoid being caught and no greatest detective in the world can find you, unless you want to get caught or you have legitimate brain issues.

That many deaths at one state dinner would look real fishy.

For ordinary criminals or citizens, use it once every couple of weeks. For politicians and celebrities, just use it once every month. I'd make sure they all seem natural/accidental, and make the circumstances reveal a bunch of dirt about them.

Seriously, using the DN seems pretty easy, and you'd either have to be an idiot or have a massive ego to fuck it up.

>>159454745
the DN holder wouldn't go to heaven or hell

>>159454734
so they stop airing criminals faces along with their names. No need to show them on the news. Now you could just kill random people and probably never get caught. but light was a fag

Kill every kike.

>Does Heaven exist in the DN universe?

The better question is why didn't he monetize the death note due to its power to generate infinite amount of matter? He could have just made a small generator and had infinite free electricity. Burn paper to heat up water which in turns moves the generator. Teach a monkey to rip the paper.

As the teenage son of the local police chief, Light fit the profile.

>>159455284
It's not bait, Ryuuk says everything that I posted on the second episode, and Light himself admits he's doing morally questionable things on the first one.

>>159451623
Late to reply but the reason they discovered the real book (which was hidden in Mikami's deposit box) was because Mikami went to the bank twice in a single week.

In his normal schedule he'd only ever go once and he only went the second time because Mello kidnapped the reporter and he felt he had to kill him. If he'd done nothing instead Light would have won the warehouse showdown.

>>159445823

I think you failed to understand the character of L. He's so autistic that he will consider any avenue for a criminal to have taken. That means he had honestly considered that a string of seemingly impossible coincidences was the result of something not of this earth and then set up a trap based on that assumption to see if it worked. Spoilers, it did.

Does it really matter if you do? Think about it. You could easily kill hundreds in the time it takes for someone to find you. By that point, assuming you've used your newfound power correctly, you've already shaped the world.

Is that why he ended up nearly bleeding to death from bullet wounds while hallucinating L's appearance only to be executed by Ryuuk? Because he did nothing wrong?

I thought it was a thing where your soul ceases to be and oblivion sort of thing instead of going to a normal afterlife.

In Catholic theology purgatory is the place where sinful souls undergo purification before going to heaven. Having to stay there for an eternity would basically be hell.

>>159462316
That's cute and all, but in Death Note purgatory isn't where people go when they die.

>Profit
The only caveat is that the ones who create the list need to be within your vicinity. How far you are willing to go to retrieve the list, whether it be in the same town you are in, or a train ride away, is up to how cautious of an individual you are. To throw the police off about the deceased suddenly printing a list of the next victim(s) (which they will eventually find out either through internet history or printer memory), you have everyone of your victims (or at least a good majority) make the same lists. I don't know whether or not you can track calls through payphones, but if its possible, then instead of printing out a list, you can just have the person call you through a payphone and have him verbally tell you the list of names.

Write down the name of a well known billionaire who is old of age, and is close to death. Have him die of natural causes/illness.

The first kill will be that of a gangbanger. You think they'll suspect anything? I can also start a convoluted system in which a bunch of "unrelated" parties pass on the note to a specific location. Have these people be something outside of my usual targets, so that they'll look like coincidental deaths.

Spread out your killings enough that people wouldn't assume they're related.

Why go through all the trouble then?
If you're killing just because why even bother, it won't make a difference in the long run.

Assuming I have the same goal as Light.

>>159463553
When a very specific type of person start dropping like flies in the same country at those specific hours by the dozen (hundreds?) every day, all of heart attack, something's up. It's not like Light killed 3-4 criminals a week with it, he ramped up the rate of death by heart attack by a few thousand percentage points, and only for Japanese criminals that had been caught.

I'd start clicking on clickbait.
I'd find the author's name.
I'd find the author's picture.
I'd kill said author.

>>159454272
L's reasoning was that Light was clearly a petty shit head that was easily baited by taunts. If Kira was really a god, he wouldn't have felt the need to kill Lind L. Taylor.

Or kill the person saying that they're L on tv

>>159463524
>I'll write over 3 billion names in that year and rid the world of scum.
You realize there's only 31 million seconds in a year right? Even IF you could write a name once every single second for a year straight, never needing to sleep or stop for anything, you wouldn't even reach 1% of 1/3 of your stated goal. At an actual realistic human speed you wouldn't even achieve 1% of 1% of that.

With brains like yours I'm guessing you'd get caught a hell of a lot sooner than Light.

>>159463676
Just have chinese factory workers write up names.

>>159463707
That's an unrealistic scenario and even more likely to get you caught.

>>159445823
Maybe not spam heart attacks like a moron. You'd never be caught using the death if you give them all varied but pretty logical deaths and don't do a bunch around the same time.

>>159463868
No, Light specifically threw a tantrum at one point because the Death Note will only kill people whose names are written in it. If the cause of death will lead to the immediate death of others, than the cause of death will be changed to a heart attack. If you want the nuke to go off, you need to write a couple million names with the cause of death: nuclear explosion.

In that scenario both person A and B will die at the same time.

Only issue is once the algorithm goes off, there's not stopping it.

Let's take 2 names:
John and Kevin.

If I write:
John will leave a dying message about Kevin then jump into a river.

Then John will do that and die in a river and Kevin will die of a heart attack 40 seconds after his name is written.

So using your idea you'd have to keep writing non stop for people to actually think the power keeps transferring. Otherwise the chain will end at some point.

>>159464608
What you'd need to do is pick Person B to be someone you don't know what they look like yet, but are able to find out.

Then you can safely write their name for the first death.

>>159464668
Yea that could technically work. Just write a random name then go on facebook or google to find someone that fits.

But at that point you're just randomly killing people and what's the point of that?

>>159464608
>>159464668
Set Kevin to be "his best friend" or something along those lines instead.

>>159464608
After John jumps into a river, you use the same line for Kevin.

Kevin jumps into the river after he writes the next dying message for Jessica.

Loop forever.

>>159463853
Death Note was written before the age of social media
If a death note were to really exist in our day and age, a guy could rack up over a billion deaths through facebook alone

>>159445823
Don't use it.

>>159464716
>millions

Lets assume it takes you 4 seconds on average to write a name in the book, to write 1 million names it would take a little over 46 days if you write 24/7 at that rate, which you won't, so lets say you write for 5 hours a day max (and that's being generous), then you'd need 222 days to kill 1 million people.

You won't write 5 hours a day at 4 seconds per name for 222 days straight, so in the end it would probably take you 2-4 years to kill 1 million people.

>>159464890
You need to picture Kevin's face in your mind or you won't kill him when you write it.

Could you kill people by proxy using the death note?
For example
>John Johnson goes to the park at 4pm, takes the death note and goes home, he stays at home and kills 250000 people with the death note, then he returns to the park 22 days later at 4pm and puts the death note under a bench, then goes home and kills himself
I know you can't kill people without writing their names in the death note, but in this case, those people do get their names written in the death note, so it would work according to the rules
Light should have done this to throw off suspicion

>>159465101
Yea but assuming you know who kevin is then his face will automatically come to mind.

I'm not making this up. I've just reread DN last week and it's mentioned fairly early on that you can't use 2 names in a sentence or you'll kill both people.
Also if you use a nickname like "Misa kills L" then Misa will die from a heart attack and not do anything else.

make sure i right out every death as an accident or something similar so they cant trace a constant amount of similar deaths to be caused by someone, which is exactly what light did. if light didn't wan't to make the world free of crime, he wouldn't have been in any danger at all. literally the easiest thing you can do is write
>dies in a car accident

>>159465147
Writing Misa kills L wouldn't kill either because it's not their full names just their first names

>>159465147
Then don't write Kevin's full name?

>>159465144
Collateral deaths are not allowed.

John Johnson dies of a heart attack without doing anything.

>>159465191
writing "[Misa's full name] kills L

Don't be a smartass.

>>159465196
Then that could work but there's a rule about misspelling names or something so you'd have to be careful about that.

>>159445823
Don't do stupid mistakes like Light did
First he killed Lind L Tailor out of dumb pride "If you try to capture Kira means you are evil as well" bullshit mindset
Then he wanted the police to become suspicious of the police, which resulted in him revealing he had connections to the police
Then he killed the person following him, without thinking for a second he might consider him innocent ultimately making him free of suspicion, which in return actually made him the sole suspect
Then he only killed at home, never away for some reason, which caused him to kill some random thugs instead of real criminals while under surveillance.
Then he never questioned L's odd behavior when he was still acting as a Student, only to look more polite which in return made him act unrealistic.
After that the only thing Light could do is clean up his own mess with the help of Rem and Misa.

Oh, and Misa as well. She said she couldn't remember L's name even though she remarks it was odd that his real name didn't match the name he introduced himself. Oh right, because the name "L Lawyet" is sure hard to remember when a guy named L is after your ass

>>159465200
But why?
It's not collateral damage if their names do get written in the death note, and the names will get written in the very near future
Even if you want to push it, Light proved you can write the cause of death without writing the names and only add the names later so it would work
I don't see where the rules state this can't happen, it's pretty much what Light did with the FBI guy

>>159445823
I'll only use it once, there aren't many people I want dead anyway

The Death Note is inefficient as fuck.
Just kill your annoying neighbours with it and toss it in the trash.

>She said she couldn't remember L's name even though she remarks it was odd that his real name didn't match the name he introduced himself. Oh right, because the name "L Lawyet" is sure hard to remember when a guy named L is after your ass

Do you have to write the names in their original language?

Like if it's a Japanese name do I have to write it with Japanese Kanji and shit?

But the people who get their names written should die
There's a difference between writing
>John shoots 5 people to death and then kills himself
That obviously won't work, because those people haven't had their names written
But if those people have their names written then what's the problem?
It's a self fulfilling prophecy

You are still using the Note to kill people who's names you haven't written. They are collateral in the death you have written.

He dies of a heart attack.

>>159465723
I'm simply writing the cause of death before the name, I can do that

Even if L did not exist someone would eventually put two and two together especially as the ISP has access to all your browsed internet pages and so does the person who owns the server of which a VPN is running.

If the myocardial infarct that the Death Note causes is a spontaneous and within a specific time a medical professional would eventually determine that something is up if the levels of enzymes in the people are similar, I assume. In a living person the levels of cardiac biochemical markers will rise and fall in a spectacularly predictable fashion.

Of course, if a Death Note falls into the hands of a pathologist, the world is fucked.

>>159465888
Why?
You can't cause a hyper deadly plague without writing million of names

>>159465861
Bruh, if there was anything medical to be found about it they would've mentioned it in the anime.
It's fucking magic.

>>159465800
If that had been the case, Light could have manipulated Raye Penber to do all the shit he forced him to do just via an elaborate death description, rather than by showing up in person and threatening to kill people.

Write my own name

>>159465995
He wanted to make sure, he never actually experimented and it was risky as fuck for him to try with L on his tail
All in all this is a weird thing because you can make people do whatever you want as long as it's not impossible for them
So killing through a mind controlled proxy should be possible, and doesn't break any rules because the dying are still written in the death note
I still think the best thing would be having famous people killing themselves by signing autographs on the death note

>>159445823
Actually being creative and killing people through ways that aren't a fucking heart attack
This is the main thing that pissed me off about this anime, get fucking creative with the deaths

>>159465946
Pathologists would likely know how long it takes someone to die of something realistically and minimise the chances of a person dying from a heart attack as collateral.

I think that the heart attack would be the biggest reason why someone is found out.

People with access to loads of databases of people would make excellent murderers but would probably be more likely to be found.

If there are loads of heart attacks, authorities and scientists would be called into investigate the reason why they died and if they are highly influential personalities than assassination of some kind would be suspected and a person with all of them. I'd imagine if there is an epidemic of deaths of heart attacks some influential people might opt to hospitalise themselves before they suffer an episode or surround themselves with people who are able to do so.

And if they still couldn't find the cause for mass deaths they'd probably look for hit strings of people who visited specific sites, people close to the people who died and investigate the political opinions of people who might want them dead.

The more people you killed the bigger the chance you'd be found out. It would take people a very long time to figure out the pattern if L didn't exist and the person doing the killing was very creative and clever in how they killed and the people doing the investigations didn't wield influence. But eventually, I'm certain that people would realise that it wasn't coincidental.

>>159466161
The reason was that if everyone dies by the same cause, they know there is a higher power behind the deaths and that inspires fear in the heart of the criminals like batman

he only got caught because he directly challenged L and lead him on in order to get closer to him - letting him know that he was connected to the police on purpose was a good example of that

you wouldn't need to try nearly as hard as anyone is suggesting to never be caught

there is literally nothing to narrow it down besides maybe country or region if you manage to get memed on with a broadcast trick - aside from that its game fucking over, you win

I would never get caught, I'll just type random names on facebook and everyone who looks like a douche is going to get killed. Since I already never leave my room, nobody would suspect anything.

>>159466412
Facebook would know every page you visited before their deaths and then you would be caught and arrested.

>I'll just type random names on facebook and everyone who looks like a douche is going to get killed.
Facebook uses complex algorithms to determine which people it shows you when you search, not to mention the fact that you need an account to search for people I think.
That's only the top of the iceberg, you're caught way too easily.

It wasn't using the Death Note that got you sent to nowhere.

wouldn't be that hard?? go on TOR just make a fake facebook account and find some popular meme group like LADbible and pick names.
if u actually had some kind of ideological motive then I guess it would be more difficult

Realistically I wouldn't use it because I don't want to go to purgatory, but assuming I had a reason to use it:

I'm a neet who never sticks to any real schedule of sleep or work, so use that to my advantage and space the killings out all over the place. Intersperse accidents with other natural causes. Burn the pages after they're used so the notebook is nearly always empty. Replace the binding with a new cover after I've memorized the rules. Most importantly change nothing about my life or previous behavior, simply write in the notebook destroy the page and go back to shitposting. Do not respond to any public taunts or figures calling you out by killing them.

I can't imagine them ever finding me in that case. If killing a person would force me to break any of the above rules I would just have to pass on killing them.

>>159467387
one more thing: never speak about the notebook or anything related to it out loud. Would have to completely ignore the shinigami. Never know who's listening these days

Easily: Don't abide an alias; don't kill those who are blatant personal enemies; don't kill those who would blatantly further my own personal gain and then benefit directly; space out killings across the entire globe, possibly even red herring everyone by killing a string of minor celebrities/nobodies in one particular country I am not from to make them believe I may even be from there.
It would be genuinely impossible to catch a Death Note user if they weren't a pants-on-head retard like Light.

>>159467426
I feel like Light got played so hard by the Kanto broadcast that from that moment on it was inevitable he'd be caught, even if it wasn't a fatal mistake. He still knew it was an unforced error and was ashamed that he might not be as smart as he thought, setting on the path where he over-estimates himself and gets needlessly embroiled in stuff the average person would just ignore. This is best shown through the tennis match.

You're not going to get caught if you don't have the death note

But that just sucks the fun out of the whole thing

>>159468278
>don't be egocentric moron with a god complex
But that's the only kind of person who would use the death note. A normie would think it's an emo diary, write their name under "____'s diary", and immediately die.

>>159468754
And even non-normies would at least read the rules and realize that death gods actually existing means the whole "being sent to purgatory" thing makes it not worth using.

you can use it but at the end of the day can they prove you did it if you just hid the death note?

>>159468925
I can't imagine any way they could ever convict a person for it. If you hid the note and it was never found, it's impossible for them to make it stick.

>>159468925
It's called a murder weapon and it basically seals the deal.

I ...honestly wouldn't use it unless I felt there was someone endangering innocent people's lives.

It's not that I'm against execution for crimes, but I don't want to be a murderer.

Honestly, after reading the rules I would probably just give it back to Ryuk, and then he would owe me a favor

if i make a robot to write every person in the planet's name non-stop, would i be blamed?

>>159469517
> Implying Ryuk didn't """""drop""""" his book so he can play with sick twisted humies

>>159469801
Yes, you're still knowingly killing people the only difference is you're using a machine to do it.

interesting idea though

The real question is whether or not you'd take the eyes.

>>159469864
i guess since the robot can't think for itself it wouldn't produce any effect since it must be thinking of the victim's face

>>159445823
DOn't make everyone die of a heart attack o no one thinks they're dying because of someone?

>>159469910
oh, good point

>>159445823
Make all the deaths occur on Ramadan or some other backwards ass holiday. Write names all throughout the year but the day it triggers is whatever arbitrary holiday you pick on 1200 GMT.
