Meet Piotur16: The Rapid Renegade of the Chessboard
Once upon a chessboard not too far away, there emerged a player known simply as Piotur16. Though details about their origins remain a grand mystery (much like how they sometimes vanish after five moves with an early resignation), their love for the game is crystal clear. Armed primarily with the trusty Rapid time control, Piotur16 has navigated the tactical terrain with unexpected twists and turns.
Rating Rollercoaster
Starting out at a respectable rapid rating in the high 900s back in 2019, Piotur16 peaked at 1132 in June of the same year—an impressive leap for someone who also dabbles in blitz and bullet, where their peaks were 700 and 662 respectively. These Jekyll and Hyde ratings tell the tale of a player chasing glory at a furious pace, sometimes winning with dazzling strategy, other times boldly resigning early enough to beat the system at "less is more."
Preferred Time Control: Rapid, of course—because quality time matters.
Playing Style
Piotur16’s games are a delightful paradox. With an Early Resignation Rate of a whopping 83.75%, one might think this player surrenders a lot, but then they pull off comebacks with a "Win Rate After Losing Piece" of 75.41%! In fact, they average only about 9 moves in losses but hold out for an average of 38 moves in wins. Clearly, when they know the tide has turned, Piotur16 has a flair for dramatic reversals and refuses to hang up their boots (or maybe just their clock) without a fight.
Opening Sensorium
Like a mysterious alchemist’s potion, Piotur16’s opening choices are a mix of classics and eccentrics. They enjoy the Kings Pawn Opening - Kings Knight Variation, boasting a winning rate of 56.58%, and have a knack for the Scandinavian Defense Mieses Kotrc Variation, with an impressive 79.39% success rate. Perhaps their opponents' heads spin, trying to keep up with the divergence in playstyle.
When it comes to blitz and bullet, Piotur16’s battle plans are more undefined, possibly reflecting the chaotic short time control.
Friend or Foe? The Common Sparring Partners
Piotur16 has squared off repeatedly against a selection of familiar foes. Their most frequent opponent is margolcia, with nearly 250 encounters—though their win rate here is a humble 46%, proving that even the fiercest kings feel the strain. Other frequent combatants include dirkdillingham and samhudson108, where Piotur16’s resolve shines.
No stranger to rivalry, the list is as long as a grandmaster's opening repertoire.
Time of Play and Temperament
The days of the week are all treated fairly, but Sunday gives Piotur16 a slightly winning edge with a 50.31% win rate. Their keenest warfare hour? While many sleep, Piotur16’s best time to pounce is at 2 AM, boasting an exceptional 90.91% win rate. Nothing like the mysterious witching hour to bring out their inner strategist!
Their Tilt Factor is a respectable 59; so they occasionally get annoyed but mostly maintain their cool.
Memorable Last Adventures
Their most recent heroic wins include creative use of unorthodox openings, such as the Nimzowitsch Defense Neo-Barnes Defense, where Piotur16 resigned their opponents to defeat with chess wizardry.

Defeat, unfortunately, hasn’t evaded Piotur16 either, reflected in some early resignations or tough battles against determined foes, but every loss simply fuels their hunger for a comeback.
In the grand chessboard of life, Piotur16 moves with passion, resilience, and a dash of drama—making every game worth watching. Checkmate? Maybe one day. A quick tasty resign? Almost certainly.
