A Death Note is a book where if you write someones name in it they die within 40 seconds of writing the name
Really? That sucks. Takes all the fun out of killing the people you hate. What idiot thought of this thing?
I would sell it for shitloads of money to raise funds to travel the world and kill my enemies up close and personal. That's the old-fashioned, satisfying way.
You can write in your own time of death, as well as the cause, though.
I don't watch/read much of the series, but I recall the main character writing a 2-to-3 page long one describing a man getting on a bus, jacking it, demanding he be driven somewhere, going insane and shooting at the air, then running off the bus. (I believe he was then hit by a car. Not sure.)
EDIT: Sorry, hadn't read the whole topic yet. You already got told that... >.>
OT: Me? I'd use it... Not entirely sure on whom. But I can guarantee that at least a few people would be kissing my feet within a year of me getting it.
EDIT: I'd like to change my answer. I would use it to write something to the extent of "Osama Bin Laden: Boards a plane on xx/xx/xx, flies to [insert a town near me here]. A government tip causes the plane to be tailed by US jets, so he leaps out of the plane with a parachute, while over [my home address here]. The parachute fails to open, and he dies on impact, with his head intact.". I then claim the $25 mill bounty on his head.
