"Mortal Kombat Bible
A detailed FAQ covering the Mortal Kombat games."
That sounds more like a gig than a job (but of course, I do not know his situation).
I think one of his relatives works there or is closely affiliated with Midway or whatnot and duke is trying to slide between the cracks starting with this book deal he's got going.

time when I was very unstable. During the worst times, MK gave me a sense of
pride. It basically saved my life in a time when I saw no light and felt no
love. It kept me focused on something other than foolish thoughts. Many of the
kids that play MK today have never experienced MK in its prime, when it
revolutionized arcade fighting games. Therefore they don't have much of an
appreciation for the series for what it really is. They see only blood and
fatalities, a cool-looking character, or a poorly translated port. But to each
his/her own. I must thank Ed and John for creating this great franchise. I hope
my work reflects my appreciation for what MK has given me, and I hope all of
you MK fans out there enjoy it as much as I enjoy working on it. Many thanks to
the people who have contributed to this project. Before you journey into this
book, be sure you're viewing it with a fixed-width font, such as Courier.
Courier New (size 9 or 10) is recommended. Here we go...

Like Sub-Zero, Scorpion's true name and origin are not known. He has show from
time to time distrust and hatred towards Sub-Zero. Between ninjas, this is
usually a sign of opposing clans.

Some time ago he posted in a thread that his uncle works there, I dunno. And he said that a next gen. MK game would use the Doom 3 engine... I guess he wasn't that far off cuz Midway announced a week or so ago that they licenced the Unreal 3 engine for a bunch of their projects including the stuff they got going at the Chicago office (which is the MK office).

i'm not sure why you're pretending to be Shymalan... wouldn't it be more "buy-able" if you were pretending to be a casting company affiliated with him?
not the actual guy.
i'm certain he doesn't do the legwork himself.
