No matter where you look you can always find a sneaky bastard! (figuratively of course.) They're in books, movies, TV, and even video games. While some are pretty cool characters on their own, others dominate the scene and leave a lasting impression. List off some of your favorite sneaky bastards and we'll hold a vote to see which ones fit into the top ten list.

I think for me the best sneaky bastard of all time would have to be Garret from the Thief series. For those that don't know, Thief was more or less the father of all stealth video games out there. In a time where first person games amounted to little more then trying to kill everything in front of you, Thief gave the player incentive to stick to the shadows and outwit your opponents.
The main character was a fast talking master thief with a chip on his shoulder and a mechanical eye. What's not to love?

I think that Iago from Othello is another pretty sneaky bastard. If you don't know who that is go read here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iago |

If you don't know who that is go read here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IagoMr. Skullcandy, sir, stop trying to deflect suspicion from yourself. Everyone here in the states knows you were behind the planned sneak attack on me and my posse's compound. You were hoping to cause a war between Canada and the USA so you could take over the Tiberius forum and possibly enslave all of California (including your boss, ArchAngel). You, my friend (and I use the term loosely), you are one of the top ten sneaky bastards of all time, of all forums, possibly of the universe. But, California is still free (and weird); and, ArchAngel still has ultimate control over the greatest paintball sniper forum in the known universe. I stand vigilant against your sneakiness. That said, Iago is a close second. [Girls, what are you doing on my computer again? You know we promised the forum there'd be no unauthorized posting without me present? What are these little blue pills you spilled all over the keyboard? Sign off and we'll clean up... |

Ok, sorry about yesterday (went to the bathroom after logging into ACES), it appears my posse got on and started a whole new post on sneaky bastards. [ok, I'll check...seems someone is at the front door, may be Charlie Sheen...]
When I think of sneaky bastard, I think of Brutus. As in Caesar and Brutus and the ides of march and Caesar famous final words. "Et tu, Brutae..." Talk about being stabbed in the back.
Kinda like Mr. SkullCandy, sir. [No girls, there was no one at the front door...my god, what are you doing now...

Good call on Brutus. Come on guys, anyone else? I was expected a flood of Sam Fisher fans to show up somewhere here.

After something I pulled a few weeks back, I may be a 'sneaky bastard', or maybe just a bastard.
What happened: Playing at Blitz paintball, and as a defender, if you were shot out, you had to join the attackers, until there were no defenders left. attackers had unlimited respawns. I'm a defender and take a forward position. Less than a minute into the game I take a well placed shot into the side of the mask. I go to attackers respawn and head back to where the defenders are bunkered inside a building. After they eliminate several attackers, I thump the doorframe, announce 'It's Melkson, I'm coming in". My friends stop shooting enough long enough for me to slip inside. I move into the center of the defensive area, proceed to barreltag 4, surrender one, and then take 4 shots to the chest/arms (2 bleeders) at less than 5 feet as a defender pops out from around a corner. With the losses they took, the building falls in less than a minute.
You be the judge...
