WP:DUCK. The believed sockmaster account was inactive since October 2008; this morning it abruptly reappeared, starting North Carolina Mustangs - which was then, after a few edits and a 10-minute gap, picked up and exclusively edited by the sock, which had been sleeping since February 2010 without a single edit. Pretty blatant duck (and the sock is blocked for spammy username), but I'm requesting a CU given that, as there was already an apparent sleeper for almost two years, I'm wondering if there's possibly more out there.

Clerk, CheckUser, and/or patrolling admin comments
. A relationship between the two accounts is obvious and it looks to me like the user simply wanted to use the more official sounding account, which has at least been blocked for the inappropriate name. In addition, CheckUser is not going to find accounts that are 2 years old because they're. But I remind Wildpuck to stick to one account and one account only.

 * Closing, with no administrative action taken. Will warn Wildpuck to stick to one account. TN X Man  19:05, 5 January 2012 (UTC)
