Definitely going with sabot rounds from an Abrams MBT. And the signiture would be leaving a tread trail to no where considering IT CAN FLY 
Not a fan of milk, it looks at me funny and doesn't laugh at my jokes.JEBWrench said:Are you crazy man?!Gincairn said:Tall tower, high power rifle, bag full of oreo cookies.

NO MILK?!
its a nice backround...mind if i borrow it for an in-school writing assignment?Trifixion said:I would choose my victims in the reverse order of the genealogy of Jesus in the gospel of Luke, with the singular exception of Amminadab. For example, the first victim would be named Joseph, the second would be named Eli, the third Matthew, the fourth Levi, and so forth...
At every murder scene I would leave the words IM A BAD MAN written somewhere - on the wall, the floor, the ceiling, carved into the body, something like that...with that phrase actually being an anagram of the aforementioned skipped-over name.
My reason, if the pattern were ever discovered, would be "by unmaking the line of Jesus, I recommit humanity to the damnation it so rightfully deserves for its crimes."
(I wrote this as the motivation and pattern for a killer in a detective story I was working on at one point...)
wouldn't changing your signature every time be a form of signature? not trying to be an ass but...being one anyway, I guessCaliostro said:Only attention starving idiots leave a signature. Why make the cop's work any easier? In fact, if I went on a serial killing spree, I'd change MO, victim type, "hunting ground" and fake "signature" every time. Tying that with random targets and careful consideration of forensic evidence (i.e.: leaving as little or nothing behind) you're virtually untraceable.
That said, assuming I absolutely had a reason to leave a signature, and I knew I wasn't going to get caught (or didn't care about it)... Probably leave the body nailed to the wall with kitchen knives.
Having a set 'style' is a quick way to get caught.sh0tgunenclave said:recently, for school I did a report on the human mind, specificaly that of the serial killer, a man or woman who, forever reason feels a compulsion to kill and leave a signature (not really, but fits the question of this thread pretty well.) and this got me thinking.
"what would my signature be?"
in the end i gave my presentation to the class, but the question nagged on.
so, I now turn the question over to you, the escapist forum community to deliver yoiu signature and cause of death (how you killed your victim)
for me, since i always wear a red hoodie, no exeptions, and since lots of the kids at my school call me 'emo' ever since word got out that i take anti depression meds, my cause of death would be blood loss from multiple lacerations on the forearms (mocking those who stereotype emos as people who cut themselves) and my signature would be a cut-off sleeve from a red hoodie on the victim's left arm.
edit: it has occured to me that it might be useful to post the FBI's main...info...thing...paper on serial murders

What you do, is you take a picture of someone holding up a manakin's head. And you photoshop vic #1s face onto it. And send them that.busterkeatonrules said:Precisely one week before I killed someone, I would mail them the head of my previous victim. (I don't know what I'd mail to my FIRST victim, though...)
serial killers who suffer from lack of attention will almost always have a style.Koeryn said:Having a set 'style' is a quick way to get caught.sh0tgunenclave said:recently, for school I did a report on the human mind, specificaly that of the serial killer, a man or woman who, forever reason feels a compulsion to kill and leave a signature (not really, but fits the question of this thread pretty well.) and this got me thinking.

...and going through and explaining my style is a good way of getting caught. Moving on now...
I guess so - I don't plan on going back to the story at any foreseeable point in the future.sh0tgunenclave said:its a nice backround...mind if i borrow it for an in-school writing assignment?Trifixion said:I would choose my victims in the reverse order of the genealogy of Jesus in the gospel of Luke, with the singular exception of Amminadab.
