Besides, the Postal Code of this hit (28971) doesn't belong to the city of Madrid, but to a village inside the province called Griñon :wink:

Probably this has an innocent explanation. User magomerlin joined on 2009-03-30, entered 3 notes, then forgot his password, or was not sure if he had joined or not (may be his computer had problems); then, on 2009-04-02 tried to log in, was unable, tried to join again as magomerlin, was unable because the name was already in use (by himself), then joined as magomerlin61 and entered three notes, one of them a "hit". If "61" is the year of naissance, it's easy to understand he is not very good at computers :-) (please nobody be angry; I'm older myself).

Maybe one of the moderators could write him an e-mail asking wether he wishes to merge both accounts?

good idea !!! that's better than to disguss a new user by moderating (or maybe deleting in this case) without comments.
a new user is sometimes a little bit lost and it's a good idea to have a moderator make a friendly intervention !!!!!!!

And the postcode of Rob87432 (5243SK) doesn't belong to the city the R is redirected to (Rotterdam), but Rosmalen.

I programmed a file that checks your to .csv exported hitdata for matches with users who lost notes in the 'clean-up-process'. I thought it could be useful for some games on the forum like 'with which countries do you have hits with?'

If they were travelling the same way it wouldn't be so suspicious (carried by someone and found again as a bundle), but the hit "Espoo - Valkenburg" makes it strange.
