Based on prior knowledge of Charmander and Charmeleon here, I think it's a safe suspicion. Not fact, no, but if a convicted burglar lives in your apartment building, you'd be right to have him be the first suspect. Similarly, if two people start consistently placing in the top 5-7 week after week immediately upon coming to the site, even double-fogging until someone brings to light their shady past, at which point they appear to begin swapping wins, it isn't a huge leap to presume there's a whiff of impropriety going on. Fact? No. But enough evidence to form a theory. Evolution is only theory, too, but it is solid enough that most scientists accept it.
Evolution isn't a theory, only the mechanisms by which it occurs are theory, and those aren't just accepted by most scientists. And in contrast to something like evolution, which has direct supporting facts, you are presenting faulty logic based on tangentially related suspicions of a group of people that you don't even know. You are quick to blindly accept anything as fact, so long as it supports a claim you are desperately trying to make. Ultimately, you can try to cast doubt on myself and sekiyoku, but until you can explain the fact that my designs have won by considerable vote margins (up to 800 votes), and that I've had two shirts sell out, you really just have no argument.
As a side note, your analogy to a burglar in your apartment is not actually applicable to the current circumstance. In that case, if something is stolen, then someone who has stolen before can be a suspect. In this case, though, the offense is having an account. You cannot project the same kind of logic onto the situation, because there is no real life equivalent.
Your tactics remind me a lot of those of Karl Rove for the Bush campaign in the 2000 primaries, but ultimately your claims will lead to nowhere, because an investigation on the situation will most definitely lead to finding nothing exposed. Why don't you be smart and send an email to the woot staff, and try to see if there is an IP match between the two usernames? I'm sure it wouldn't be hard to do, but I'm sure you are afraid of taking such a proactive approach because all it will do is prove innocence in this case.
