The terms of that bounty don't state that alt accounts are not allowed to be used.
You know, a while ago when I was actively tagging members who had multiple linked accounts in the same bounty I actually looked at the rules of some of these bounties, and I noticed that most of them don't have rules against this.  That's kind of when I stopped tagging people for enrolling alt accounts in bounties, even though I still think it's an unsavory practice--they're gobbling up spots that could be given to other people IMO and ultimately are being very greedy.

Basically, if the bounty manager doesn't care if the same person is using multiple accounts in a single bounty, why should I or any other DT member take the time to tag them?  It's unsavory but if it isn't against the rules it isn't cheating and it's not even really dishonest.  It sure would be nice if those bounty managers did make rules prohibiting the practice, but in their eyes the more accounts they get enrolled the more advertising they get.  

The whole system is completely fucked.
You are right, I also do not encourage such a practice. In my case, it was a single episode, and the campaign did not succeed, no one received anything, so this unfortunate accident did no harm to anyone. But I rebuke myself for that case, it was a mistake, although not dramatic.

I also want to state that I tagged Sancho18’s account as belonging to my son (and asked him to tagged my as belonging to his father). Therefore, I ask you to conduct a review of the new episode regardless of Sancho18's account, I do not want my son to suffer for my mistakes. Tnx.
