Basically, if you haven't checked off everything on the list, then you are not an X-man
Take cyclops for example
space- Phoenix saga, judgement wars etc
alternate dimensions - mojoworld
future time travel-adventures of cyclops and Phoenix
Past time travel- further adventures of cyclops and Phoenix
Reality warping/alternate realities- Age of X
Evil clones/skrull clone) robot doppelganger- Inhuman cyclops clone
Alien invasions - secret Invasion
Demon invasions- Inferno
Cosmic/demon/ghost/alien possession - The twelve,
Fighting cosmic beings- Phoenix Endsong, judgement wars, Phoenix warsong
Super hero teams fighting each other- Avengers Vs X-Men
Death- death of x
Resurrection - Uncanny X-Men annual
And baseball games- well, you get my point.
Unfortunately, Xavier doesn't qualify. I don't think I've ever seen him play baseball. He is not an X-man.
