Robin Bhujel: The Chessboard Biologist

Meet Robin Bhujel, better known in the chess petri dish as iamrabin, a player whose rating cells have undergone some fascinating mutations over recent years. Currently navigating the wild ecosystems of Bullet, Blitz, and Rapid formats, Robin's chess journey is a study in adaptation and resilience.

Evolution of a Rating

Like a curious organism exploring new environments, Robin's rating peaked in Bullet at 965 in 2024 but faced a dip to 416 by 2025, proving even the toughest species can experience a population bottleneck. In Rapid, Robin's rating journey resembles a slow but steady cell division, with ratings fluctuating from a max of 1337 in 2022 down to 444 in 2025. Blitz play has shown a max rating of 933 in 2024, dropping to 554 in 2025—an ebb and flow akin to the tide in a complex ecosystem.

Opening Genetics

Robin's DNA on the chessboard reveals some fascinating preferences: a favorite genome appears to be the King's Pawn Opening, boasting a win rate above 51% in Bullet, with a solid affinity for the Bishop's Opening and Caro-Kann Defense as well—both showing impressive win rates above 60%. Robin’s gameplay exhibits adaptability, tweaking openings like genes for optimum survival against varied opponents.

Playing Style & Behavioral Traits

An early resigner just 5.48% of the time, Robin prefers to let the endgame gene express strongly—appearing in 38% of games. The average victories unfold over approximately 40 moves, while losses tend to linger a bit longer, averaging nearly 48 moves. The player’s comeback rate is a remarkable 49.42%, with a perfect 100% win rate after losing a piece – talk about cellular repair mechanisms kicking in!

Psychological Ecology

Robin carries a tilt factor of 11—like a neuron firing under stress—but balances it out with a 29.69% win rate edge in rated games versus casuals. Perhaps pressure acts as a catalyst, sharpening those synapses for critical moments.

Interaction with Opponents

Like a predator-prey dynamic, Robin has developed distinct win rates depending on the opponent species. Some adversaries fall prey 100% of the time (hat tip to usernames like whopperwitxtracheese and hed-y), while others pose serious challenge—a reminder that even the most adapted species face tough competition.

When and Where to Find Robin

Robin’s activity peaks at midday and morning hours (8 AM to 11 AM), with win rates spiking around 58%, and small bursts of brilliance even in the wee hours. The data suggests a circadian rhythm optimized for peak cognitive function during these times.

In summary, whether maneuvering through the dense forest of rapid moves or sprinting in the bullet-battlefield, Robin Bhujel is a fascinating specimen on the chessboard, constantly evolving, adapting, and sometimes hilariously losing a few pawns to keep the game’s genome diverse!
