Thread: Mystery Guests...

  1. #1
    almost every time i read a post on the forum here, i look at the username of the person associated with that post. then when i read through the post, i keep in mind who has written it, in order to give it more or less importance, or decide to formulate my reply.

    this is arguably a form of prejudice, so i was thinking a wee bit (dangerous stuff)

    what about if a number of forum regulars were to put their names down in this thread, then after a sufficient number (5 or 10, whatever), they all had to create a new account on the forum and post under this alias. they would have to put in a reasonable number of posts (20 or 30) over the next day and the other forum regulars would guess which member belonged to which 'mystery' account

    for example, say if members called "1, 2, 3, 4 and 5" put their names down

    they would each create a guest account called "mystery1, mystery2 etc..."

    I would happily have a bash at that. Though I have to say that it has been commented in real life that I have a somewhat individualistic and recognizable writing style.

    Is there anything you can judge from my posts* other than that I like to add extra information** and use hyperlinks when referring to something?

    *Link now updated.
    **This is an example of what I do in a post.

    I can judge that you post blind links

    What benefits they can get? After all they&#39;re just spending time.

    I fucking hate it when I make an error .

    However I can also judge the following about you:
    • You are a male*.
    • You live in Glasgow, Scotland.
    • You are a very educated person.

    If I were to perform a complete analysis of all previous posts made by yourself then I would be able to retreive further information.

    i tend to use parentheses(like this, for example) too much, and create run on sentences, in a similar fashion to the way adster creates run on setences, but if i wanted to i could write in a completely different way because i am a shapeshifter.

    I&#39;d be willing to participate

    Lemme know what&#39;s needed to start off

    One thing though - Mods and admins shouldn&#39;t be allowed to point anybody out. Mainly because they can see member&#39;s IPs and as such could technically compare the IPs of the mystery guys... :-"
