Player Profile: sitsonthefence
Since first stepping onto the digital board in 2020, sitsonthefence has shown remarkable growth in both ambition and skill. They began with a modest Bullet peak around 1405, but diligently pushed onward, eventually attaining a Bullet high of 2353 by 2024 and netting a final recorded mark of 2259 in 2025. This improvement is echoed in their Blitz rating as well: starting near the 900–1000 mark and soaring above 2000, culminating in a peak of 2291.
Their Rapid games follow a similarly determined path: from ratings under 1000 early on to regularly surpassing the 1800–1900 range, ultimately landing near the 2000+ mark. Daily chess is also part of their routine, highlighted by a dramatic climb from 383 to an impressive 2042 rating peak.
With over 4000 Bullet games logged and a healthy mix of Blitz, Rapid, and Daily contests, sitsonthefence has developed a balanced style. Overall, they hold a notable edge when playing White (winning around 55% of the time), though their Black performance is not far behind at approximately 51%. Notably, their matches often delve into deeper endgames—over three-quarters of their encounters reach those final complexities.
Known for remarkable stamina on the board, sitsonthefence has a longest winning streak of 30. They rarely fold early (with an insignificant early resignation rate), and their “comeback factor” stands out: they can battle back in tough positions and maintain composure even in the face of adversity. If looking to catch them at their best, checking in around the 19:00 hour often finds them in peak form.
From underdog beginnings to consistent performances above the 2000 mark, sitsonthefence’s story is one of steady ascent, fierce competitiveness, and an unwavering desire to push each game to its final moves.
