Anggun Nurani - aka yippiieee

Meet Anggun Nurani, a spirited chess enthusiast whose rating journey resembles a thrilling rollercoaster more than a predictable climb. Known online as yippiieee, this rapid player reached their peak rating of 1120 in May 2021 — a proud summit after many intense battles fought one move at a time.

Anggun's style? Let’s just say patience is a virtue here. With an average of about 58 moves per win and nearly 68 moves per loss in rapid games, yippiieee isn’t one to resign easily. In fact, Anggun’s love for the endgame shines brightly, contesting well over 60% of games till the final phases — a true gladiator of the 64 squares.

Tactical awareness is no game for the faint-hearted. Despite occasional setbacks, Anggun has an impressive comeback rate of 67.5%, proving that even when the chips are down, quitting is not on the agenda. It’s this tenacity that has secured them a longest winning streak of 10 games — and counting.

Not afraid of experimenting, Anggun prefers the "Top Secret" opening — an intriguing mystery to opponents who have played 237 games against them! With a win rate just above 50%, it's like opening a box of chocolates: you never know which sweet move will come next.

Psychologically speaking: Anggun thrives during odd hours, with an uncanny 100% win rate at 2 am, and a playful tilt factor of 7 — enough to keep things real but never to lose the fun.

Whether playing white or black, Anggun’s games demonstrate a slight preference for the dark side, winning approximately 54% of the time when wielding the black pieces. And despite the setbacks and losses (because who hasn’t blundered a queen or two?), Anggun maintains a spirited attitude.

Notable recent highlights include a victory by resignation over the creatively named Epaminondas-Rastapopoulos in February 2024 where strategic pressure forced the opponent to concede, proving that patience and precision win battles. Conversely, even champions have tough days as shown by a recent loss against “JacobMc16” due to resignation — a reminder that every player's journey is full of ups and downs.

When not playing chess, Anggun might be found pondering deep strategies while sipping coffee, or plotting revenge against recurring opponents like samoir and dedysoerya, who have tested their mettle multiple times (win rates vary, but the rivalry is real!).

In sum, Anggun Nurani is a determined, thoughtful player with a flair for lengthy, tactical battles and a personality that lights up the chessboard — because every game has a story, and every player deserves a victory dance, even if it’s done in their pajamas at 2 am.

Long live the game, and long live yippiieee!
