Actually he just joined one of my games....
If you search you'll see. He's starting games and taking turns at the same times.
But as of posting this I wasn't playing any games with him at all.

19575242 is the game I'm currently playing with him. But if you check both accounts I'm pretty sure it's going to be pretty stuff out of that. Also if you do an IP address search..

Two different flags would seem to indicate different countries, so an IP address search probably won't help, but I don;t know for sure.

Ok.
It just seemed pretty coincidental that the two of them had such similar names and starting similar games at the same time.

Common clues to look for are the country flags, types of game they play, joined date. Things like that. Mike22 plays in clans, tournaments, tribes etc. he's pretty active especially in team games. The final clue is that one account is premium, the other is freemium and if you search for games of them together you won't find Mike72 donating free points to Mike22 or anything like that so no point in Mike22 having a separate freemium account.

those flags wouldn’t necessarily show anything, one from Netherlands the other from USA, playing back to back late in USA would mean in the middle of the night for the guy in Netherlands, unlikely but not impossible, just out of the norm.
Today with a VPN i can connect in USA play my turn, log off and log on with another account while switching to a server in france for instance so it would show two players, two flags but same user, IP is not easy to be track under VPN because those change all the time and fake.

Now for this C&A post i would join part of the iAmCaffeine post and analysis outside of the flag comment, very unlikely those 2 accounts are multi.
