My train of thought was basically "why would ffao have a leg up?" -> "maybe it was a previous Rubio puzzle they solved" -> "what was the last Rubio puzzle solved by ffao?" :P (and the first step of that puzzle looked somewhat relevant... maybe)
There are the kinds of puzzles where you take a number and try through math to get it to another number, or start with letters, and try to get to another word through a series of valid words... but what about a combination of the two.
The rules:

Let's all make an extreme metapuzzle - an ergodic puzzle book! 'After a random idea thrown out in chat, I have decided to actually post something. Let's all, collaboratively, write a book to rival House of Leaves.' ...nah, I'm not a good enough puzzler to put it out there.
@Randal'Thor Re: this comment - I'd rather say "please don't do this at all", but I accept the fact that that's not going to stop anyone :/

I'm a time traveller. In order to keep balance to the universe, it is my duty to preserve past, present and future.
However, the Bad Guys want to mess with our past to destroy humanity as we know it once and for all. They are usually trying to execute great leaders in the past, although our age...
One part I even liked well enough to put on my profile, which I think will resonate (perhaps in more than one way) with you as well:
> I do what I can to be a class act, Though I fear that detractors shall ever detract. I pay them no heed; they're not worth my time (except to disparage them briefly in rhyme).
For the price of my advice to entice lice to the nice rice device and dice mice twice in a trice, thrice a slice of ice with spice in a vice will suffice.
Bellow I operate three countries name into a country name.
The 4 countries must have different names
Determine how the operation works, then replace ?? with a country name.
Example
1. Iceland # Haiti & Trinidad And Tobago = Chile

I often have difficulty with arbitrary pairs of things, but that pair has never caused me any trouble. I wonder why (and, more specifically, I wonder whether there's some parallel with something more obvious).
yeah, people trying and failing to write Elizabethan English really get on my nerves.
actually, that sentence is ill-constructed; it's not the people but the bad English that grates.
Another one I have trouble with is misinformation and disinformation. I think one of them is just false and the other is actual lies, but I can never remember which is which.
