Poor Darkened One, you never knew what was coming did you. But at least Konomi gave you time to prepare for your fate...not many most sociopaths would do that.

Corrected. =P

Really?

Most I've met only send subtle threats of possible harm at most. Or act immediately without warning! 3nodding

Few seem to actually approach people saying, "BTW I'm going to stab you in the eye on Monday. biggrin Or is Tuesday better for you?"
I just want to be polite. Sometimes people want to die slightly sooner then the date I set for them.
Or they are like, "hey, could you kill that guy I work with too? Guy's an a**."

I agree with Konomi. Sociopaths are known for their sponteniousness. How many do you know would actually schedule you for your a** whoppin or whatever the sociopath feels you deserve.

[Brink Kale]

I suppose, I hadn't done much research on the matter but I do remember seeing two or so "sociopaths" on this show that was going through a list of "ruthless human beings" (not the exact name but I remember it was on one of those Crime channels and it was actually really terrifying) and a few of them actually told their victims what they were going to do with them. Which was . . . utterly terrifying. I have to find the name of that countdown. =|

[Konomi]

Are you sure they weren't telling their victims what they were going to do to them right before they would kill them?

Sometimes I just tell people I'll kill them, and I save the how explanation for when the time actually comes. 3nodding

The element of surprise can be nice, sometimes. Works better for some victims. heart

Well, I think it's alright as long as you credit back/say so in your application, as it says so in the notes for contestants and everyone in general.

Not too sure, memory is shoddy xD I do remember there was this one really young kid, who told his mother in graphic detail what he was going to do with her and the next day he did it. I really didn't expect him to be so . . . vicious. He was really young. If I ever met a kid like that I would panic. The only thing I could think of as the psychologist explained whatever he was talking about (lead of the show) was . . . "Jesus Christ he's only freaking (insert age here)". I don't even remember how old he was. The only thing I remember about the show was that it was a countdown of different levels of "sociopath-ism" I think. With 100 being the highest (or maybe it was 200?) Anyone know what show I am talking about?

Darned it. Fact is I can't remember where specifically I obtained the brushes from, so I have no one to ask permission from, nor can I really remember their specific rules as to using them sadly. So all I can do is credit back to "Various Artists on DA".

[The Darkened One II]

Well, Omnia, What if I told you I already killed my Own family? Hah. I entered it just in time!
My Mom was rushing me so I may just move the media a bit, I couldn't finish moving it. But I think I can finish it today before I go to the Homecoming game.

Hmm... well, they're from dA, and assuming you have taken the brushes that don't require creditbacks; I guess it could be alright. Though ambiguous, it's way better that you credited (even if you don't remember the exact link/person/dA) as to where you got them rather than to not-credit at all. 3nodding

Bah~. XD I'll submit an application, P_D can decline it depending on her views on this anyway so might as well get it in before deadline.

Woof.

You're profile is pretty neat, Jitaroo. ;p

Free brushes are kind of the same as free fonts. Pleople in this contest use custom fonts pretty often, and I usually don't see any credits explaining said fact. Swell's right, it shouldn't be a problem.
In the code though I would personally mention "brushes, etc, not made by me. Credits go to their creators."

Oh-- I'm curious though-- what media player/ music host are you using?
I don't think I've seen that one before. Looks nice.

[Jitaroo]

@Konomi~
Thank you. XD
Bah~, I'm probably just a bit too paranoid, I almost never use brushes or textures that aren't mine and fonts I absolutely know I have permission for, very edgy about the subject. Already credited "Various Artists on DeviantArt.com" in my code, too vague?
Player's from http://www.hypster.com. :3
