Trivia

  • In a topic suggesting Clowns as a new Mastermind powerset, Positron immediately rejected the idea. Many players assumed this meant he had a fear of them (coulrophobia).
    • In a forum post[1] about this, he corrected this assumption and revealed that he has a fear of spiders (arachnophobia).
