In gaming culture, smurfing is defined as logging into a
secret account seperate from a main account as to allow the user to
play a game without being detected by his or her peers.
Generally the purpose of smurfing is to improve oneself without compromising the statistics of a main account. It allows gamers to try new strategies, or simply
play without worrying about a "record".

fun. Playing around with some new
stuff.
David: Didn't want to mess up your stats I see.
