Mason: The Chronicles of a Relentless Chess Enthusiast
Mason, known in chess circles as InRoCo, is not your average player. With a daily rating that has danced between the mid-700s and mid-900s over the years, Mason is proof that chess is as much about resilience as it is about brilliance. Despite a rather “creative” win-loss record in daily games (12 wins to 33 losses), Mason’s passion for the 64 squares remains undiminished.
Rapid games tell a different tale — 440 wins out of 879 matches, a respectable 50% win rate, showing Mason’s ability to keep cool under ticking clocks. Blitz and Bullet? Well, let's say Mason's rush hour is a work in progress, with blitz games hovering around a challenging 12.5% win rate and a perfect (but singular) bullet victory suggesting flashes of lightning skill.
Mason's longest winning streak is an impressive 14 games, a streak that probably had opponents re-thinking their life choices. Yet, the current streak is zero — chess players know this all too well; the game can humble the best of us in the blink of an eye.

- Early Resignation: About 12% of the time, Mason decides to cut his losses early. Why drag out the drama when you can prepare for the next battle?

- Comeback Kid: With a 57.58% comeback rate and a 100% win after losing a piece, Mason refuses to surrender without a fight.

The Time Machine
Mason’s peak chess hours? The evenings around 16:00 to 19:00, where win rates reach the high 50s and even touch 100% at 11:00 (if only Mason could shift all games there!). Saturdays are Mason’s lucky days with an outstanding 61.68% win rate — perfect to unwind and outsmart the weekend warriors.
In short, Mason is a relentless player with a warrior’s spirit, a strategist of comebacks, and a sometimes unpredictable tactician who keeps the chess community guessing. Whether it's Daily, Rapid, or Blitz, Mason plays with heart — and sometimes a bit of humor when resigning early!
