 * This looks like a bunch of gamers who got together during a stream and made up something and decided to bring it here. Crow  Caw  02:24, 17 June 2015 (UTC)

 * I'm not declining the CU request at this point, although no rationale has been provided for the request, but all the accounts (I added one more and blocked it) are blocked, the two regular articles have been semi-protected, and the three deleted articles have been salted. Do we really need to know whether these are meat puppet or sock puppets?--Bbb23 (talk) 04:48, 17 June 2015 (UTC)
 * - Looking closely at the accounts, they are completely non-overlapping in time. I don't think meats could handle that kind of pointless coordination, so I'd confidently state they are actually socks. IPs are a different story, but from all over the world. Account creation timestamps also suggest this user is already fully capable of evading account creation blocks. All together, this says to me that CU would be a waste of time. Aside from one account, these were also all used immediately, so it doesn't seem like someone who makes sleepers. Eh, long story short, I don't think CU would actually give us anything useful.

 * One or many editors editing related to this new meme during a Twitch stream. All accounts already blocked, further investigationg unneeded. ☺ ·  Salvidrim!   ·  &#9993;  20:12, 18 June 2015 (UTC)
