UPDATED DEC 24, 2014:
The entire list will be revealed sometime tomorrow on Christmas day.

UPDATED OCT 28, 2014:
The rest of the entries will be done with a more visually appealing presentation. The remaining 15 should be completed in November (of this year).

UPDATED AUG 2, 2014:
Slowly but surely this will be completed someday.

UPDATED AUG 19, 2013:
This is a cumulative analysis after years of playing the game. Everything is subjective, so please don't take it personally if you don't agree with where I placed certain individuals. I have also included a rubric on how I grade individuals. Read the following below on how I will evaluate players:

Criteria: Possible maximum of 45 points

A. Legitimacy [1 ---> 10]
One of the most controversial things about our game is whether or not ex-hackers should be allowed to be put into a list such as this. I think so. For those who have been caught hacking in the past, I have graded them more harshly than those with a clean record. Remember that everything is subjective.

LEGITIMACY SCORE SYSTEM


B. Skills [1 ---> 10]
Having knowledge is one thing, but being able to apply it during game time is another. While having knowledge is important in succeeding, being able to execute it effectively is much more vital. There are a lot of knowledgeable people that aren't great players. Then there are others that aren't knowledgeable in every facet of the game, but are still able to succeed due to their natural ability to play the game. Lastly, there are a rare group of individuals that are both knowledgeable and skilled at the same time. These folks are the ones that will score the highest in this category.

SKILLS SCORE SYSTEM


C. Knowledge [1 ---> 10]
Certain people in this community have been able to dissect and understand the game better than others. These individuals understand the nuances of the game that other simple-minded folks would rather ignore than embrace. Many of the skeptics of snipers have claimed that this game requires no skill. For us more experienced players, this is not the case. Certain pioneers of various tactics such as glitching, shs, dlocks will be also ranked higher in this category.

KNOWLEDGE SCORE SYSTEM


D. Teamwork [1 ---> 10]
A partner that you have great chemistry with is usually more than enough to give your team the upper-hand against your opponents. There are certain individuals that will adapt to their partners style of play to compliment their games. For others, it's either their way or the highway. There are people that I've been able to play with over the years simply because their style works with mine or that they are team players. To be clear, this category has to do with an individuals ability to play with others. There are a lot of people that have shitty personalities, but can still play a team game.

TEAMWORK SCORE SYSTEM


E. Personality[1 ---> 5]
Why did I add a category where someone's likableness counts towards their value as a sniper player? For partners, I tend to play better with people that I get along with. People that are calm and collected put me at ease during game time. People that get nervous and angry easily can ruin the momentum/chemistry of the team. If I can't stand you, there is a higher chance of me playing under stress. I hate stress. I think you get the point here. If I were facing you, games are more fun to play in when both parties have nothing to lose. These are games where the outcome won't make or break relationships. This isn't to say that I don't like competition. I thrive it, but there are those that treat this game like it's larger than life. Yes, I enjoy this game a lot, but there is no reason to create unnecessary drama. At the end of the day, one of the reasons why the game is dying simply because of these cancerous personalities. One exception from what I just mentioned are those players that are sore losers. Even if you are easy to deal with outside of the game doesn't mean that you are just as pleasant to be around during games. These people will also be ranked low in this category.

PERSONALITY SCORE SYSTEM


Tie Breaking Process:
If there is a tie in overall rating, I will decide the higher ranked player based on this order: Legitimacy > Skills > Knowledge > Teamwork > Personality
If players are tied in every single category, I will just choose the player I think is better skill-wise.

If 2GoD's name makes this list, it will be a goddamn travesty. Especially at #29 or higher. Also, interesting you have LaZeR potentially at #5.

Mav really didn't want a list of the people he put up so that his work would go to waste.

Thanks a lot for doing what he specifically stated he didn't want to do earlier in the topic.

Don't think those names he put out there were in order, just a list of names who he thinks could make it in the top 30.

Either way, 2GoD would be at least #29 by default, if he were to make the list at this point. Drinks, you're one of the most underrated snipers playing, because no one knew you when you played Walks. Just throwing that out there.

James,

You make 2GoD sound like the worst sniper of all time haha. :) David was actually a pretty underrated sniper... I remember carrying him quite a bit but he was one of my partners. People often underestimated him, and it cost them when we played together..

I don't mean to make him sound like the worst of all time, but no, he was not underrated. I clowned the guy constantly when I made NwS on West with LaRoCkO, and I don't remember him playing very frequently after that. Anyone you have to "carry quite a bit" doesn't deserve top 100 credit, let alone top 30. ReD)AwpS would have to take the title for worst "pro" sniper of all time, in my book. We should do a bottom 101, haha.

I think we should do top 100 LOCKS ONLY list. Locks brings a huge difference in the game and is a lot more skillful. YOu only have to control your sniper to angle with walks (a-walk).

I made a top 50 list of Walks snipers, but never got around to posting it. I wanted to do a top 50 Locks as well.

He's not going to just quit with 29 more to go. It's taking longer than expected, but he'll finish it. I swear to God, Rigo is obsessed with this. 700 of his 737 posts are in this topic, and they all say "update!!!!!!"

I'd put my money on him becoming irritated with the whining. Certain people (RIGO) seem to forget he's doing this for the community, and doesn't owe us this list. Maybe we should all shadafakup and appreciate what he's done thus far, and wait patiently for the rest?

James,

I'm a little appaled by your response but I'm not going to argue. I clowned on NwS quite a bit before I joined the clan myself, so yes I'm very familiar because I was tearing people up with Larocko, and I think frost in that clan.

I have carried top "30" snipers for the record too by the way all the time through my career, it's really not hard to do. I have also carried you at some point or another. I have also been carried many times, all the time. Everyone gets carried at some point or another, it's not some ungodly feat.
