I really must stop guessing without having a plan for a new one in mind.

This ex-users name can describe a text field in a spreadsheet. I'm making it simple to keep it going here.

//edit Monkey Puzzle, I hadn't seen it when I answered but that does make it a lot easier.

//edit number two - it appears it was more difficult than I thought, the name can be separated into two words, one of which was a popular/irritating fad relating to manliness here a few months back.

Sorry, not the one I'm thinking of as I wasn't aware that it described a text field but if it does there could be two answers, particularly as I hadn't realised they were banned. I guess this clue might be a bit unfair as the user was perma'd a couple of years ago now.

It's got to be something to do with 'cell'.

Correct.

Want another clue!!

What does it start with or how many letters?

It appears I've done it again, see my second edit though, that might help, 12 letters long if that makes a difference.

Ah okay fair enough. I'm not going to know the answer if he was banned a few years ago, so here's some random spreadsheet terms for guesses.

array

irritating ocuk fad relating to manliness... a bitta? or a fad not specific to ocuk?

alphanumeric?

Good one if it is!

Congratulations.

Although looking for the username reveals he might have been banned for even longer than I thought, that makes me feel old.

"Array" is "RAID" i guess?

Van Hellseek · 20 Feb 2008 at 21:18

how is alphanumeric a fad?

Luke · 20 Feb 2008 at 21:18

Blimey, didn't expect it to be right, particularly as he was well before my time!
