Can anyone confirm the last time 1MM ever wrote a message in chat or had a message attached to his "tips"? [...] Phil lying to his fans to illicit more tips, as a way to convince them to contribute more on the day streams [...]
1MM has tipped $25 on almost every day stream for the past year or 2, and almost always when Phil goes to break. His tips never can be seen on stream, and we basically have to take Phil's word on it that they exist.
This is the last 1MM tip (pop-up) I could find on pig pig go - no message attached but that's up to the person sending it, means fuck all, not all dented are built the same - but it makes it quite obvious it isn't him since he's playing the game, you might still go the Shinko-route and think it's him/someone very close...
I'm sticking with it being PlanetJeff personally, he could grab the money and use it to entice for more by "look how close we are at the hat goal" as well, one doesn't exclude the other, maybe 1MM got the idea into Phil's head, "I'll send you money, use it to get more by doing this", is that less far fetched than Dave coming up with the idea? (it makes more sense than 1MM being Dave to me)
BTW, don't fall into "he couldn't budget it to tip himself daily"-trap, we know, there's however only him stating he got a tip, if he got 2K and divided it into "amounts of streams to claim $25 tip", that's all he needs to do, state it that amount of times he's been tipped behind the scenes, piggy mentioning it after going on a break doesn't mean he got the money then... (the IRS cares about the amount not in how many pieces it came in/which time)
The only reason I feel it could be piggy is his voice cracking up and so on..."Cobes' style buuuuut", he reads the farms and knows he could use his tell-tale signs of lying to make shit more weird... (create a conspiracy theory, a world where we'd ignore him and fight over who 1MM actually is, he thinks he can detract the detractors...in some cases I think he actually could but who gives a fuck about James and his lesser followers?)

Extra edit; how do we know it's minute (me-knit) - as in time - rather than minute (my-nute) - as in size...?
