Who We Are

TopGunStats.com was first created in the day of Halo 2. For those of you who are new to the Halo series, Bungie use to host leaderboard site of their own. However it was quickly removed. Enter TopGunStats.com a replacement for the defunct Halo 2 LeaderBoards. In the day of Halo 2 I (Stiffel) was still in my programming infancy and simply didn't have the time or knowledge to truely create a complete collection of global rankings. This brings us to today where I'm just slightly less infant to programming and have a little more time to dedicate to the project.

What We Do

For those of you who don't know. Bungie.net actually hosts a very good stats tracking site of their own. This site is in no way meant to replace the Bungiet.net site for your stats tracking. What we are here to do is provide rankings based on the stats tracked on the Bungie.net site. Our aim is to rank every player on Xbox Live for the Halo Reach Beta and, when released, the Halo Reach game.

How It Works

TopGunStats.com has a collection of scripts written to crawl the Bungie.net website for new gamertags and to update stats. Unfortunately these scripts eat server power and we can only keep gamertags current to about a month. Fear not young padawon, there is an answer. TopGunStats.com is setup to update registered users stats everytime you login. So if you just hit that new kill/death ratio that's going to put you over the top. Just login to the site and bask in the glory of your new ranking.

How We Rank

Currently, TopGunStats.com ranks playes based on Kill/Death ratio. Any players with the same Kill/Death ratio are then ranked by Kills. We are open to suggestions on how to rank players. Once the Arena ratings are posted on the Bungie.net site we will be ranking the arena board based on the arena rating.

I Just Registered And I'm Not In The List

You probably haven't completed the minimum number of required games to be ranked on the list, you need to play at least 25 games, so get playing!
