The "I just got a hat" celebration thread

[Flying Chicken]

After two months and no hats, I had enough refined metal to make a hat (giving up a few items since my item find rate had literally dried up this week) and got a mining light. Not too bad, I'll probably aim for a pyro's hat next, since he's the only class I like all the hats for.

Cool Story bro.

I only like pyro hats too. :\

 

[honeymustard]

I crafted a demoman's fro out of my metal. Happy

Two more refined, two more scrap to a soldier hat, anti-woot.

In other news, I obtained my 14th camera beard today, pushing my record for successive camera beards to three.

*sigh* I still have no random drop/crafted hats. /cry

 

[Numerous]

The hats I got were snipers yellow belt (even though I never use jarate) and the mining light (come to think of it shouldn't that be used by the soldier, with the equaliser and all?).

/agree

/cries too

Although I've crafted a hat, I'm still sad that 206 hours gameplay yielded no random hats.

I wasted my ingredients on tokens like a bloody idiot. Three class tokens and a slot token are no good if you are way short of smelting a hat for said classes.

Hence it was an absolute overload of luck that today I was gifted from the heavens with a Bonk Atomic Punch helmet for the scout.

I got my 3rd refined metal about half an hour ago and crafted an Engineer's Cap from it

 

[Masakari]

I just finally got my first dropped hat a couple of days ago, and the Gods of TF2 were obviously nice to me, since they gave me a Tyrant's Helm (Which is, in my opinion, the coolest of all the hats)! Needless to say, I actually have reason to play Soldier now.

And then, two days later, I crafted a heavy helmet. Not the toque I was hoping for, but still good!

I'm saving my metal (almost 4 refined) for this new update coming up. I think it will be worth it, and I'm predicting that this update will solve the idling. I'm trying to get my fill of it now.

Well, this is late, but I got a Respectless Rubber Glove this Sunday gameday on Forbidden Planet. After so long without any random headgear, I got the BEST GODDAMN HAT IN THE GAME.

I can die happy now.

EDIT: Also, only 11-18 more weapons for a new random hat!

 

[Spammish]

Got a backbiters billycock yesterday, my 2nd hat after my tyrants helm, I get the best hats

 

[Cerious]

Got my first hat last Sunday, a Demoman's Fro.

Yesterday, I took 3 Refined and crafted them into a Bonk Helm.

Today, I crafted both of my only hats into a Ye Olde Baker Boy!

 

[takk¥u]

[Untouch]

[Mr. P. Kiwi]

I got a "Ye Olde Boy" Hat!
Not sure what if it's Valve made or not but it's for the scout... The class I play the least

 

[Dr. KillPatient]

Yay only two reclaimed to a Soldier hat...
*prays to every known deity for a Tyrant's Helm*

If you pray to more than one you're not doing it right, all the ones you've prayed to will see you've prayed to all the others and will consider you blasphemous, and consequentially smite you.

Or curse you with a different hat.
