Markdown for your README, iframe for your personal site — the card stays live either way.

What do these numbers mean?
  • OVR /99 — the overall rating: all six stats blended on a curve where 99 is deliberately unreachable. Even the legends top out in the mid-nineties.
  • PAC Pace — how often this profile ships (public events per week, ~90-day window).
  • SHO Shooting — stars earned on original repos. Impact, not volume.
  • PAS Passing — pull-request activity plus follower reach. How much the work connects.
  • DRI Dribbling — language range across repos, with a bonus for balance.
  • DEF Defense — how much of their own work is still maintained six months on.
  • PHY Physical — seasons on GitHub plus consistency inside the window.
  • TIERS — Bronze to 59 · Silver from 60 · Gold from 75 · Holo from 87. Earned from the rating, never bought — every card design keeps the true tier.
  • DATA — public profile, public repos, and ~90 days of public events, read live. Private work is invisible to the scouts, so private-repo heroes rate lower than they deserve. It's a vibe check, not a performance review.

🔥 The roast

Observations your profile earned. All of it is public record — zero AI.

  • 🔥🔥🔥Your most popular repo (code-guide, 8472 stars) hasn't been touched in over a year. 1106 people forked it. They're waiting. Still waiting.
  • 🔥🔥36% of your activity happens between 10 PM and 6 AM. Sleep is a deprecated dependency, apparently.
  • 🔥🔥21 of your 22 repos haven't been touched in over a year. You don't have side projects, you have a museum.

Every line is computed live from public GitHub data — nothing is written or stored about anyone. If you'd rather your handle not appear in our example lists, tell @codewitholgun and it comes off.
