Scott Johnson - The Chess Connoisseur

Known in the chess biosphere as scotty82912, Scott Johnson is a rapid-fire tactician with a penchant for emerging victorious in the biological battlefield of 64 squares. Starting from a modest Elo baseline, Scott’s rating history paints a portrait of relentless evolution — akin to a rook navigating ranks, a knight leaping over obstacles, and a bishop slicing diagonals with precision.

Rating and Style Evolution

Scott's rapid rating peaked around 1674 in 2020, boasting over 3,500 wins and battling through nearly as many losses in rapid formats alone. His blitz prowess is nothing to sneeze at either, maintaining a near-even record with 1,268 wins and a similar count of losses — a classic sign of a predator-prey balance on the blitz battlefield.

Opening Genes

With the Queen’s Gambit Declined Knights Variation rampaging to a mighty 67% win rate, Scott’s opening repertoire brews a phytochemical cocktail of strategies. The Sicilian Defense, his go-to rapid defense, wins nearly 44% of the time — enough to make any opponent’s pawns shiver in their little sockets.

Psychological Adaptations

Scott’s resilience is evident in his 75.76% comeback rate after losing a piece, demonstrating a remarkable ability to bounce back from setbacks like a true chess chameleon. Though his Tilt Factor is 13 (hey, even the best biological organisms have their off days), his win rate after losing material remains a perfect 100% — that’s evolutionary survival at its finest.

Time-of-Day and Weekday Activity Rhythms

The apex of Scott’s competitive vigor aligns with the afternoon hours around 3–6 PM, where win rates spike over 50%, suggesting his metabolic chess cycle is primed for battles during these golden hours. Tuesdays seem to be his prime hunting days, winning more than half of his encounters.

Fun Facts from the Chloroplasts of Chess

  • Whips out wins with an average of 64 moves, showing endurance and patience of a game-theoretical tortoise.
  • Max winning streak? A mighty 12 — long enough to make a pawn chain strong as DNA helices!

In the complex ecosystem of chess, Scott Johnson thrives as a strategic organism, adapting across rapid, blitz, and daily formats with a bio-pawn-driven zest for victory. Watch this space; the evolutionary tale of scotty82912 is still unfolding.
