His alternate identity is King Supernuts, a benevolent supervillain who presides over the Worldwide High Score League and recruits the world's top scorers into global competition. The format is engineered to destroy mastery, timed rounds, expanding boards, real-time global rankings, and it's completely, earnestly real. As King Supernuts himself put it: "It's 100% fair. It's global. It's sanctioned by the Worldwide High Score League. And it's ridiculous, but it's real."
