None of those.

The two parts of the question are completely separate, referring to two totally unrelated things about this Downer.

This record-setter is a real puzzle.


You couldn't be referring to Gil-Galad, could you, for his self-proclaimed prowess with puns and his fervent belief in female fancies, both of which are somewhat quizzical asseverations.

Sorry, not Gil.

Morm, I never said it was easy, I just said it wasn't so hard as to use such a small nit-picky quote.

The record has to do with height; the puzzle has to do with where s/he posts most often.

Since Firefoot just answered a quiz question, could you be asking for The Saucepan Man, the undisputed King of the Realms of Q&Q?

The Downer in question doesn't really make people edit posts. They just make them feel like they may want to.
