I'm kinda new here, but I've been on Wikipedia, so I know wiki stuff-including sockpuppeting. The 2 accounts I suspect are Terrible is halloween and Terrible is thanksgiving. Reason: 1) the first 2 words of them are the same, 2) the last words of both are fall holidays, and 3) I noticed them both on a voting page; one was in the "support" section; the other was on the "comments" section but clearly showing support.
