'''David Stolp''', often known by his nickname '''pieguy''', is widely regarded as the best player in [[Chip's Challenge]] and one of the most influential and revolutionary [[Chipsters]] that has existed. He announced his retirement from competitive play on April 2nd, 2014, but has made some occasional reappearances since then.

His score in [[CC1]], an astounding '''5,977,610''', was for a time embroiled in a struggle for first place. [[Andrew Bennett]] tied him once, but [[J.B. Lewis]], with Andrew's assistance on [[Blobnet]] play, gained 2 seconds over David. Then in 2012 after gaining four extra seconds in [[Lemmings]], [[Spooks]], and [[Amsterdam]], he reclaimed the top position. In reply, J.B. Lewis came back over him and gained 1 second over David. Then David gained 5 seconds on [[Cake Walk]] to reclaim the top position. For now it seems his top spot is secure. He also has bold on most of the untimed levels.

* Many new records, even from levels that seem to be almost impossible to improve on. A score report from David has become a heralded event in the CC community, as there are very few scores he has not yet reached.

* Befitting his nickname, almost every level of his creation contains a connection to the number pi somewhere. The character is often drawn in the level, but also the digits themselves can manifest in several ways, like a required sequence of steps to complete it (as in ''lesson 3.141592653589793238'' and ''organized chaos'').

* Some of the more famous levels utilize advanced coding (including ''the most insane level ever!''), glitches in Chip's Challenge which are often exclusive to one version of the game only, weird anomalies, and other crazily hard challenges. The result of this is often that specific and exact movements are required in specific directions (including the digits of pi, as described earlier) and in a specific order, even if this is not apparent or simply illogical.
