His opponent Gullikson had this to say “It has no place. Everyone's afraid of these guys. All it would take is one default to put them in line. If it was the 120th player in the world, they would have defaulted him.“ The quote later went on to serve as the title for X‟s autobiography.

15 Daniel Handler wanted
to receive material from organizations he found "offensive or funny", but did not want to use his real name, and hence invented his pseudonym. The name has a similarity to Jiminy Cricket, a fictional character in Disney‟s 1940 movie, Pinocchio. Handler described Jiminy as "exactly the kind of overly moralistic, cheerful narrator who [sic] I despise", was "likely a Freudian slip". When writing his most popular set of works he and his editor thought that the books should be published under the narrator's name (the name of the pseudonym), rather than his. What name?
