Right now there's about 15 who have revealed who they are. Most of which have taken pretty prominent player roles with the exception of Parros. We've had 2 players reveal their powers and everyone else has remained uncontested so far as to who they are. Maybe a management member (or more) took a gamble and is one of the players listed lying about who they are but I'd say it's much more likely that more management exist in that group of 10 or 11 people who have yet to name who they are. So it comes down to why those people haven't revealed themselves. One reason is because they are management. Another is because they have been inactive, I understand time constraints but losing an inactive player wouldn't be the worst case scenario. And then the big downside is because they have powers and don't want to reveal who they are - but like I said most players revealed are pretty prominent.
I'm definitely going to be taking a note of who hasn't told who they are, for whatever reason, and especially if they come in and "reveal" themselves to be 3rd line wingers with 100 games played.

Yeah, that's a pretty BIG downside if you ask me. I'm not sure I completely trust someone who is so casually exciting of outing everyone.
All outing anyone does is create targets for the management, it doesn't help players. Management are going to lie, it's in their best interest to lie. Players are going to tell the truth, as in this situation it's the only thing that avoids the witch hunt. The problem with that is the management all know who each other are, so all the high profile players then become targets.
I'm not going to vote for you right now, but I think people should take notice how interested you are in getting everyone to lay their cards on the table, even with the knowledge that the management are going to lie anyways. Even your reasoning that whoever doesn't speak up should be a target just encourages management to lie and doesn't help our end at all.
