Nice. Did Wedrifid finally make his dream come true? ;)
As in, did Wedrifid finally claim the name for a witty sockpuppet account before someone else nabbed it? Afraid not! :/
Wedrifid would have left out the “timestream-hopping” part of the satire. The whole point of the ‘acausal’ notion is regarding influence despite the lack of such abilities. Adding in magically-causal powers just confuses the issue.
It’s actually pretty crappy deniability. There is a very small chance that all sockpuppets are Wedrifid, but on account of his dream it is actually quite a bit larger than the chance that all sockpuppets are MarkusRamikin.
Of course, these events are not necessarily mutually exclusive.
