You would think after all the broobaha of Destructoid others would learn their lesson, but apparently not. In fact Screw Attack is taking it one step further, signing up fake accounts to Digg stories 'en mass (instead of just getting its own writers to do the digging).
Here the offending story: http://digg.com/gaming_news/Top_10_WORST_Mario_Games_Funny
Now the first bunch of people who Dugg it (some are legitimate Digg users no doubt, but most aren't).
Dugg nothing but the above story:

Is it just me or are their usernames just quickly hashed together crap?
May Have Dugg other stories (a few none GT/SA ones but not many)

Also worth noting is that the last two listed (http://digg.com/users/Fiends/news/dugg
http://digg.com/users/Atezki/news/dugg) have also Dugg Game Jew articles. This may have been used as a cover so the accounts could appear real since they hadn't just Dugg gametrailers.com. This isn't necessarily true but there is no other way of explaining how these two accounts could have Dugg the exact same two websites.
There are MANY MANY more shady accounts on that one submission, odds are something is amiss. Either GT/SA is gaming Digg or it's some sort of setup...
