IMO, no. Just no.

To me a scythe is about high crits.

Hitting stuff with a blunt skull on a stick doesn't really represent this.

you dont seem to have seen the finger did you.... thats an important part now if they would accept this weapon and dey would feel like making changes they can but really i made this scythe to manage to go up to people using d scythe(i could b included) and tell them ''hey the design of the weapon is mine alone and i am very proud of it'' but doesnt everyone want to manage to do that?

if you want to understand the language just sound the letters in your head(or aloud if you like) for example c=see

It's not a language, it's shorthand used by illiterate fools who can't seperate SMS from reality. Most non-idiots who see you writing like this (outside of SMS) will think you're an idiot, most of them will think you're an idiot for using it even inside SMS.

Aside from the fact that guru has rules against using shorthand. Use non-shorthand english or don't use anything at all

Brave of you for putting your weapon idea out there, not many people actually do that. As for the shorthand, it may be against guru policies, but its not hard to read. There is no reason to flame this guy Ralgha, take your condescending bull somewhere else.

Edit: Nice job on the weapon btw, pretty original.

Meh, I think it's too simple and generic and not too professionally put together.

It's like you read my mind.

Anyway, a scythe implies a blade, not a prod. If this had some sort of blade on it and didn't consist of some dead guy with his eye poked out, then maybe.

Of course, all over the world everyone learned to speak and most of all write english into perfection.

The guy probably never learned how to write english, give him a break.
It's only annoying when people who acually learned how to write are using this language.

As of the scythe. I like the idea, but as pointed out, maybe you should change the finger in a more sharp part.

There's the Jitte for the swords... so why not have a blunt scythe?
Even though it does sound retarded...

Too many "I'm going to finger you with my scythe" jokes will come from such a weapon; besides a scythe made from bones and skulls would have far more finesse and beauty to it than that. The handle will be made from a curved spine, the blade from some sharpened shoulder blade of a huge beast, and the joint will be a skull with the mouth open, the blade jutting from it like some grotesque tongue of bone.

Ugly, bad art work, and too similar to things like the Bonecage Scythe.

I kinda like it better than bonecage scythe. It's like Bone Staff made into a scythe.

Still, it's a bit odd. How are the bones sticking together? Where's the blade? :P

Sorry, man. Like someone already said, you missed Design-a-weapon by nearly half a year.

As far as the scythe goes... ...I could see bones for the staff part of it, but not the blade..

I think the shaft should be a long bone, with the skull having a large jagged blade protruding out of the back of the skull, as if it was stabbed through.

I'm sorry but this is far too simple. Scythes are supposed to slash at people with a blade, something this design doesn't have. All you can really do with this scythe is poke at the person.

Nice idea, might need some changes... as people have said it looks like a random bone stuck onto a skull (looks like someone died picking their nose to me )

Maybe a mergoyle skull, or a small version of the Gray giant Skulls stuck onto a stick would be better as they have a horn sticking out of their heads already.
