12/1/2004	Scythe of the Wretched needs to equip your creature when the other creature goes to the graveyard for the ability to trigger, but it doesn't matter whether the Scythe equipped your creature when the damage was actually dealt.
12/1/2004	If the card isn't a creature when it comes back onto the battlefield, then Scythe of the Wretched won't move onto it.
