Came across this when searching for more Drabsi Jimmy socks. Both editors' first edit is to make a user page containing only a one sentence phrase on their username (Giniapple's = 'Apple for the win', Delaykill = 'never delay in any work'). They both create pages in Draft space then move them out (probably the only similarity with Jimmy so I don't think they are related to that sock). Both also use infoboxes with the same structure and combination of fields filled out. jcc (tea and biscuits) 15:34, 13 June 2017 (UTC)

 * Group 1 – the following accounts are ✅ to each other:
 * Group 2 – the following accounts are ✅ to each other and to Group 1:
 * Blocked all accounts without tags. Delaykiller is not the oldest account. I strongly suspect a connection between these accounts and those at Sockpuppet investigations/Drabsi Jimmy, but technically the best I could do would be barely .--Bbb23 (talk) 18:34, 13 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Based on behavioral evidence, I'm connecting these with the accounts in Sockpuppet investigations/Drabsi Jimmy. They're behaviorally such a match that, even if not the same person, I consider it highly likely they're from the same general farm. Each promotional sock farm has their own quirks in how they try to evade detection, and without going into great detail (WP:BEANS), the quirks match here. Tagging appropriately and deleting new pages now. Closing. ~ Rob 13 Talk 07:14, 16 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Please merge to Sockpuppet investigations/Drabsi Jimmy per the above. ~ Rob 13 Talk 07:23, 16 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Note that the Drabsi Jimmy case must be moved to the newly-identified oldest account, which is . That should be done before merging, probably, to prevent you from having to move more stuff. ~ Rob 13 Talk 07:38, 16 June 2017 (UTC)
 * If this case is merged into the other, it will create a problem for CheckUsers in the future. We've had other cases in which there is probably more than one master but they've been merged because of behavioral similarities. In one large case you have some accounts that are editing from one country and others from a different country, and the two groups make no sense. One possibility in these two cases here is you have paid editing from two different masters who know each other. Another possibility is one master copied the behavior of the other. I am against merging the two cases for those reasons, although I understand and sympathize with 's view.--Bbb23 (talk) 14:27, 16 June 2017 (UTC)
 * If it's easier for CheckUsers, I suppose these can be kept separate. Is it possible to cross-link these two cases from each other's SPI pages instead to preserve the link? Not sure if that would mess up any clerking scripts, etc. ~ Rob 13 Talk 23:53, 16 June 2017 (UTC)
