Biography

COMMUNITY REPORTS
The remainder of this article contains lore created collaboratively by the Blaseball community.

Yusef, an Arab Jew, was born in Philadelphia to a Muslim father and Jewish mother. They spent much of their time growing up on their computer, where they learned the ancient art of hacking. They operated under the name "xX_puddles_Xx" after their pet duck, Puddles. At the age of 6, they hacked into the New York Nut Exchange (NUTDAQ) and were responsible for the single largest instance of peanut fraud on record. They were brought before a judge, who ruled that they not be allowed access to a computer or other electronic device until their 18th birthday. They spent much of this time playing blaseball.

Yusef attended Temple University on a blaseball scholarship and there resumed their interest in hacking. During one aimless hacking session, they gained entry into the Philly Pies' computer systems and accessed Yeong-Ho Benitez's personal files. Yusef discovered that Benitez was investigating a far-reaching conspiracy that could "bring down all of blaseball." Fearing that Benitez's evidence could be destroyed, Yusef quickly copied all the files onto a floppy disk, which they then stuck inside an air vent with bubble gum.

Yusef became obsessed with Benitez's research and the conspiracy they were pursuing. Yusef rarely slept and their grades began to suffer. Upon hearing that Benitez had been incinerated, Yusef immediately hacked back into the Pies' system, and put themselves in as Benitez's replacement. They listed their name as "Yusef Puddles" so that their parents would not know about their plan to drop out of college to pursue the truth through a career in blaseball. Using their phreaking skills, Yusef contacted Sam Hinkie and, using their floppy disk copy of Benitez's data as leverage, convinced him to let them on the team.

Career with the Pies

Puddles' Avatar by @garce

Puddles has quickly become a fan favorite in Philly, owing largely to the dolphin mask they wear whenever they are in public. The mask resembles the dolphin avatar they use as a hacker, which has led some rival hackers to theorize that Puddles themself is a dolphin. The Pies have capitalized on this popularity, with dolphin masks becoming the hottest selling item in the stadium after the new Yeong-Ho memorial pies.
