Player Profile: shimshamshimey 👍 🫵
Meet shimshamshimey, a bullet chess aficionado with a flair for dramatic comebacks and a reputation for sometimes waving the white flag early — but only about 5% of the time, so they're no quitter! Their games often last quite a while when victorious (65 moves on average), showing a tenacious spirit that refuses to give up after a loss, boasting an impressive comeback rate of over 77% and a near-perfect 98% win rate after losing a piece. Talk about turning lemons into lemonade!
Shimshamshimey’s journey through the ranks has been a rollercoaster of speed and skill. Starting back in 2021, they were a modest 587 bullet player, but by 2025 they soared to a blazing 2210. Daily and blitz ratings show steady improvement too, peaking at 1446 and 2127 respectively, proving they’re no one-trick pony. Rapid games, though fewer in number lately, still keep them sharp, with wins way above the 50% mark.
Their playing style? Expect plenty of endgames (over 56% frequency), a balanced dance between white and black pieces (just a slight edge for white), and games peppered with enough twists to keep opponents on their toes. They tend to lose faster than they win, which probably explains why their opponents always feel the heat — average losses last 51 moves, but wins drag on to nearly 65 moves. The psychological tilt factor sits at a thoughtful 18, meaning they’re mostly steady, but no saint when under pressure.
Time-wise, shimshamshimey shines late in the evening, especially around 11 AM (where they sport a whopping 75% win rate), and early hours such as 3 AM and 6 AM with solid performances. Beware if you try to catch them at 9 AM though; it's a bit of a kryptonite with a 0% win rate—perhaps only chess computers are awake then.
On the opponent front, they’ve tangled most with players named owerner08, ihaveadollonmyroof, and alidino11, with a decent win percentage hovering around 60-90% depending on the rivalry. Their secret opening repertoire has brought them nearly 50% success in bullet games and an even more impressive 75% in daily chess, suggesting a cunning blend of mystery and mastery.
When asked about their chess persona, shimshamshimey might say, "I don’t always win, but when I do, it’s often after a devastating comeback or a sneaky pawn promotion. Just don’t challenge me at 9 AM unless you want to be the morning toast!"
May the forks be with you, and the blunders always favor shimshamshimey!
