the person

I'm Christian Walls — a competitive over-the-board chess player and a security researcher, and Andromeda is mine end to end. I built it and I keep it by hand: the curated study archives, the ten-million-game master search, the analysis board, and the careful way every imported game is checked before it's trusted.

The two sides rhyme. Chess is where I practice long, patient decisions under pressure; security research is where I take systems apart to learn how they actually behave. What follows is the short version — my real games, my ratings, and the places worth following for the day-to-day.
