How about one of these:

Poster most likely to tell a long, involved story in order to get to her point.  
-OR-  
Poster most likely to use parentheses (sp?)  
(or is that not the kind of category we’re going for?)

I’d also take **Poster most likely to post incredibly long lists on survey threads**.

I guess I would be **Most “comma-happy” and “quotation mark-happy” poster.**
