Thanks, that is confirmed as a new record. I see six howlers posted on Mon Mar 26 2018:

which makes Tue Mar 27 2018 the only confirmed date where all four categories (Day, Week, Month, Year) of worst nodes were held by the same perl monk. Further complicating this Guinness Book of Perl Monks Records, accidental anonymous posts occasionally self-sabotage record-setting attempts.

Update: here are some of the recent suspicious "anonymous" posts (starting Mar 09, 2018 at 14:15 UTC, four and a half months before his sensational last post on Jul 24, 2018 at 04:11 UTC):

Surprise new tactic: post anonymously, then defend anonymous posts as sundial! See also: Re^3: [SOLVED]: Trying to understand method calling in OOP.

Update: and some older ones - it's unclear whether these were deliberate or accidental (see "accidental anonymous posts..." above):

Update: He's done it again, all worst nodes of the day, week, month, year on May 22 2018. Given there are currently no shocker blocker posts by others, he might continue to dominate all categories ad nauseam.

Update: After sensationally resigning from Perl monks (My last post on PerlMonks ...) on July 24 2018, it was suggested he may have returned as TheloniusMonk (however, examining the content of TheloniusMonk's posts indicates to me that he is not sundial).

Update: SunnyD is back after making his last post on 24 July 2018. After a break of nearly a year, he returned on 29 May 2019. He's made 8 official posts between 29 May 2019-26 Oct 2019 (plus a number of suspicious anonymous posts).

And the suspicious anonymous posts seem to be increasing.

Curiously, in Perl Unpack Cobol Binary File and Fields (May 04 2020), after making six anon replies, he switches to posting as SunnyD.

Back to posting anonymously...sigh...

Anonymous barrage of nine consecutive node-ids on 21-Nov-2020:

See also: Re^2: Problem in RAM usage while threading the program and Re^2: Perl and MongoDB (where four in a row record is noted).

Dec 28 2020: Hmmm, no anony posts since Dec 20 and now two in a row as SunnyD. Is he about to give up the anony posts? (Also, who is Leitz? - he never posts any code, and reminds me of a toned-down SunnyD, though I strongly doubt he is a SunnyD alias).

4 Jan 2021: Back to anony posting it seems:

11-Feb-2021. Massive anonymonk activity and confusion with multiple anonymonks posting, one anonymonk criticizing SunnyD-anonymonk ... while other anonymonk (WookieeJeff) getting offended thinking the barbs are addressed at him! And finally haukex (and bliako)) stepping in to try to calm things down a bit.

I've got a headache now trying to figure which anonymonk is which.

Oh my: a barrage of "anonymous" responses to possible "SunnyD" anony posts. Confusion reigns.

Perl Monk discussions provoked:

I'm getting bored with this nowadays, too many anonymonks, getting too hard to tell who is who:

Note: this node is continued below in Re^9: -175 := +127 Thank you all! (Worst Nodes) - for nodes from Nov 2021 onwards. Sadly, the original node was becoming unwieldy to edit, due to its vast size.
