Rimmy Tim is an alias in Achievement Hunter lore created by Jeremy Dooley. This is not the first alias appearing in Let's Plays, for his seat's former occupant Ray, the two remaining Team Lads members Michael and Gavin, and Ryan have all created aliases of their own.

History[edit | edit source]

Rimmy Tim was the name for his Zer0 character in Borderlands 2 - a build designed to hurt enemies at low health, and frequently killsteal, this became infamous among his friends, ever since then, any game that allowed you to set a custom character name, he had set it as Rimmy Tim - this was carried over when he was hired at Achievement Hunter.[1]

Trivia[edit | edit source]

  • Rimmy Tim's signature colors are stated to be purple, yellow, and orange. The signature color aspect gave Jeremy trouble in determining his biker outfit, as he couldn't find clothes in either of the signature colors.
    • Jeremy also uses the color scheme of Rimmy Tim for his custom vehicles, including:
      • "Rimmy Turtle", his BF Raptor.
      • "Rimmy Tron Bike", his Nagasaki Shotaro (the bike from the GTA Online gametype 'Deadline', with the trails being the reason for the 'Tron' aspect).
      • "Rimmy Hog", his MC bike, a Western Nightblade.
      • "Rimmy Reaper", his Pegassi Reaper.
      • "Rimmy Tim-mobile", his X80 Proto.
      • “Rimmy Tim-mobile 2”, his Buccaneer Custom Topless
      • "Swimmy Tim", his Blazer Aqua.
      • "Armored Tim", his Armored Kuruma. "Armored Rim" is an outfit of Jeremy's.
      • "Rimmy Track", his Bravado Half-Track.
      • "Rocket Tim", his Rocket Voltic.
      • "Rimmy Command Center", his Mobile Command Center.
    • Jeremy's pre-biker Rimmy Tim outfit included a purple jacket, which at the end of the first Bikers DLC Let's Play in GTA V Jeremy dubbed the "Rimmy jacket" and downed a drink as a final tribute to it (judged by saying "may it rest in peace" like it was a deceased loved one).
      • This pre-biker outfit is considered to be the original Rimmy Tim outfit, as stated by Jeremy after winning the fourth Cunning Stunts episode's playlist (the winner of the one in the previous episode, Ryan, and Gavin both sat out number four with Mica and Jeremy's fellow RTX 2014 hire Matt participating instead. (Jeremy would subsequently win the Game Attack playlist, but in a preceding episode guest stars Etika and Lannan changed Jeremy's character's outfit).
  • Jeremy had been contemplating dying the sides of his hair orange to go along with a purple top in reference to the Rimmy Tim colors, and so from July 10 to August 2, 2017 Jeremy's hair was "rimmified" a bright purple and orange color scheme. It is assumed this dye job went awry at some point, which led to Jeremy shaving his head bald.
    • The dyed top of his hair didn't happen until after marrying Kat, as its remaining its original color was a stipulation for the wedding to go ahead.
  • Rimmy Tim made an appearance at the RTX Sydney Off Topic panel (#63, "Myriad of F*ckups), where Jeremy sat among the audience in full Rimmy gear until after the podcast started. It was here that he ultimately revealed Rimmy Tim and Jeremy Dooley are one and the same.
  • It was discovered by Gavin in Let's Play Minecraft episode 247 that Jeremy's name could possibly be misspelled "Jerimmy".
