    I would like to know if the community wants more snapshots,I should have a clear idea before investing time and effort. :)

    I like the snapshots, gives a brief overview of the meta at the top of nightmare. Only problem is that the game only lists the top 50 players, and its pretty much all the same players who have been using the same gear for a long time. And if a ship happens to be heavily underrepresented in the top 50 such as Defender the stats presented for it carry little weight. The meta snapshot would be better if the leaderboard had the top 200 players or so.

    I'd agree on that with you , but...

    We have access to top 50 players and not 200, so that kinda restricts the data flow.
    plus, the top players are mostly whale who can change gear accordingly, so you easily have the idea of meta. :)

    Are you pulling this data somehow or just manually looking at it?

    If you are in NML, you have access to the entire league. That is a lot of players to go through.

    For disclosure... I voted no because I don't want you to waste time pulling a limited data set. I think that the devs might give us some data somewhat soon.

    Yea, that's not worth the time right now. We appreciate all of the snapshots that you've done. Use that time to get to NML instead! :)

    Yes - But it is indeed time consuming.

    I like the Snapshots, and I find them really useful when we’re trying to have a discussion about balance. Snapshots are the nearest thing we have to actual data.

    I insta-voted yes because I like the work he's done in the past. I'd change my vote to no because I agree with Help I Cant Swim here.

    Sounds time consuming, I was looking at doing one of these and threw my hands up when I realized how labor intensive it is.
