In my past week of playing, I have only gotten a single Eyelander through random drops. I idled for 4 hours while getting confirmed at church, and I returned to receive nothing new. Same situation when I idled overnight, which really damn surprised me. The lower drops wouldn't bother me if I didn't need two more Reclaimed for a hat.

I'm in the same situation actually... but I'll save all my metal until the next hat update.

Well I just got a drop after ages of idling, finally enough to craft a pyro hat. (brigade helm)

but I have noticed a severe drop in the last week/week and a half in the number of items/hour

I've heard from a friend jim who keeps himself well informed that lots of servers are losing their connections to steam, meaning no one on those servers will get items in that time.

Although I can easily attribute my low drop rates recently to random fluctuations and be satisfied it will pick up again.

To be honest, what with the crafting now possible, I'm not actually that bothered by it. But that's probably because i just got the only hate i actually wanted, soldier's pot. It just means i wont need to clean out my backpack as often.
