Pretty much the inexplicable interest in Otto4711's block. My strong suspicion is that Otto4711 is attempting to get his block overturned by using a sock to instigate an investigation into the original block. —Kww(talk) 15:31, 20 February 2011 (UTC)

Hmm. While the interest is odd, the account has been around, and active, for a few years now. Surely they would have been discovered before now? TNXMan 16:14, 20 February 2011 (UTC)

I've found surprising misses before (User:Paint Old Street Black was missed on several sweeps for ItHysteria, for example), but yes, that is one of the main reasons I'm not shouting WP:DUCK, and my block finger isn't willing to push the button without a checkuser.—Kww(talk) 16:25, 20 February 2011 (UTC)
