Troy can I upvote my own posts as you do with your five accounts?

I think it is. All accounts are registered in the owners name and the wallet is simply divided by that number. Very little can be gained by this, only less confusing tags.
troy has stated on here that the reason he has all these steemit accounts to to have more steem to upvote his work. He claims it's fair because so many people down vote his blogs. Personally I look at it as a way to weed out the trash on steemit.
I'm really new at this format and I think trying to say anything really solid is just conjecture. Having said that you or Troy may be correct, it may work that way on up-votes and such, but at the wallet you have one account and earnings are averaged (that's as much as I know).
