tmac and/or tanner, the fact is that at 12:28 PM Saturday, tmac made a post. At 6:05 PM, tanner made a post asking "why did I make this post." Then only 2 minutes later, tmac makes a post quoting tanner's 6:05 post.

The 6:05 post seems to imply that the person who posted as tmac earlier is the same person as tanner, then the 6:07 post seems like an attempt to cover this implication.

An hour later, tanner comes back on and asks tmac (presumably)"what's your email?" This looks like tanner/tmac is the same person and realized his mistake in posting so quickly after the original screw up, and so tried to cover his tracks a little more.

The exchange is entirely between tmac and tanner (unless someone in that otherwise inexplicable chain was trying to communicate with swamphawk).

This is all circumstantial, and might not hold up as legal proof (that tmac and tanner are one in the same). Then again, it might. The fact is, even if those who think they are the same are wrong, tmac and/or tanner are going to have to put out a believable explanation re: the above exchange, one that gives another reasonable possibility other than yes, they are the same person. Barring that, most any reasonable person is going to assume this rumor is indeed true.

You can take your well thought out reason and logic and get the H577 out of here. This is the internet and we have no place for that!

can you seriously stop. What could possibly be my motive for not telling everyone my other account is tanner. Honestly.. ive posted a minute or 2 after a lot of people. Does it make them me? No. And I dont see how tanner sending me the google earth thing shows we are the same person.. in fact ill post a screen shot of the email he sent me on this date.

The above post shows

1: Me sending tanner an email on september 20th

2- An actual IM conversation with tanner (he asked for my im during recruiting this season and I gave it to him thinking he wanted to tell me something you cant put in a sitemail, apparently he just wanted it to point out whenever he pretends to be me.

3- Tanner is apparently from canada. Never knew that.

Sorry, tmac, but I'm just not buying it. Like I said, maybe there's a credible explanation of the exchange of tmac/tanner at the top of this thread. If so, I'm all ears, and I will admit I missed it. Barring that, no amount of screen shots posted by you are going to change my mind. Not trying to be mean, just calling it the only way I know how.

Thats cool man. I probably emailed myself a month ago knowing someone would call me out on it a month later. You really are more intelligent then you seem.

I really don't know the back story here but I have several alias' and always post with a different alias than i thought I was. It is extremely easy to do.....I have read all the posts in this thread and have to say I find tmac/tanner Guilty on all accounts of using multiple accounts and denying it. Just an outside objective opinion...I have been wrong thousands of times though, just ask my ex-gf's....

damn, did it again....

I'd be shocked if they were the same person. I don't know the past stories, but from what I gathered tanner is just f**kin with tmac knowing it will get his panties in a bunch. Just looking at each others past success is enough for me to know they aint the same. Not a huge difference, but for them to be the same person they would have had a little bit more similar success, which they have not. Not to mention we would have heard by now if tmac has ever won an NT, or even made it to the final four. Just seems like the type of kid that would use that to defend himself. Also, isn't he like 14? I don't think he could afford all his names and the amount tanner has. Maybe hes daddies little girl, but doubt it.


Edit - looks like he beat me to it. He went from never making the final four (posted that himself fairly recently (months?) to winning NTs - if I read that right :)

furry im a month away from 17. How old are you? Arnt you like 20?

yup

I'm in two conferences with Tanner and have had lots of dealings with him, whereas I only know TMac through these forums. But I'm fairly sure they are not the same person. They don't write the same way or coach the same way and Tanner has a much bigger vocabulary. I think the explanation for the exchange at the top of the thread is that the second poster (Tanner?) was joking.

Ironically, I am in conferences with Tanner under another name--amsiegel.
