Yeah, never craft two unique hats together, even if you don't like them. It's always a bad deal unless you absolutely get the single hat you want the most. With the trading system (one of these days, valve!) coming soon, it's just bad business!

Just got 3 refined metal and couldn't wait to craft a hat. So I craft.

I get a Ten Gallon.

Now, this wouldn't normally be a bad thing, as the Ten Gallon's a pretty awesome hat. However, I *never* play Engie. So I decide to craft it with my Yellow Belt that I never use.

Mining Light.

brb seppuku

The Ten Gallon and the Pyro's Beanie are the only two hats I want. Sadly you can't make engineer tokens and I have the pyro's other two hats so the odds of getting a dupe are high.

At this point I'd be happy if I got any hat/accessory at all. I only have the standard Ghastly Gibus and camera beard

...or maybe a pair of damn Gunboats

Same here. I'd give you my gunboats if the trading update was already in place :V

Even if the Sandman isn't "high-tier" or whatever, I'm having fun with it. I just need to remember to use it to stun attackers while retreating.

Also, I got a Targe, but still no sword. :<

Sandman's perfectly fine now, it was just terrible back when it had -30 HP, and overpowered when it removed your double jump and could stun ubers.

I'd say it's a perfect sidegrade now; Stuns are amazingly useful, but -15 HP means -12% max HP. And that's a lot.

Brother got the Vintage Tyrolean today.
He was pretty happy about it after never getting a hat after 400 hours of idling.

Bananamatic · « **Reply #160 on:** February 23, 2010, 11:41:14 PM »

aaaaaaaarrrrrggggggghhhhh
playing demoman, sneaked up on a sniper, taunt...at the last second, he sidesteps, a pyro comes up from behind and tries to hadouken me, I try to run, I get blocked and taunt killed.
I feel like an idiot >.>

First hat I found too.

Except I didn't idle for mine and it took 660 hours.

Well his first hat was the yellow headband, but that thing is stupid.
He got it before he did any major idling.

I'd do anything for a hat ;_;
well, except for idling

I didn't get the Tyrolean until after the WAR update. I've found five or six Prussian Picklehaubes, one of which was my second hat (first was a Tyrant's Helm).

I found two more Tyrolean's after the first, though

Looking at it again...it looks like a setup

well, atleast my first taunt death was pretty epic and that guy got an achievement :V

I have a Ghastly Gibus and that halo. I guess those count :V

I used the idle program way back when, so no halo for me. I have two Gibuses (Gibii?), though.

I actually think I burned myself out from playing too much TF2. I'm only really willing to log on if there are at least a couple of my mic-using friends playing, and will leave shortly after they call it a night.

Esoterica · « **Reply #168 on:** February 24, 2010, 03:42:36 AM »

Warning to all Demo players: The last update broke the Grenade Launcher, making grenades pass right through opponents. Since this pretty much makes the class useless, I suggest either switching classes or whoring out stickies ~~which any demo players here probably already do~~ until this gets fixed.

Bananamatic · « **Reply #169 on:** February 24, 2010, 04:04:38 AM »

When did this update happen? I could still kill people with them a few hours ago...
...or just go Eyelander

4:21 PM CST. "Fixed pipebombs not being removed if they explode in a func_nogrenades zone" didn't quite work as intended.

Of course, you might not've been playing on an updated server.

Here, have a video.

I just tried a rocket jump, then did an AB rocket jump at the same spot in tr_walkway for comparison purposes.

Holy damn, AB went about 33% higher.

got a medic taunt kill from behind the corner during humiliation :V

oh and a few deflect kills. one of them completely blind and made some demo detonate himself with his stickies.

another when I blew away the demoman and apparently I blew away his grenade too which landed on his head

oh and separated 3 ubers, all in the same spot

seriously, if you play with a backburner, you should have your steam account banned because compression blast is fuckawesome

Unfortunately, there are a lot less Huntsman snipers than there used to be :C

~~I can't believe I just used "unfortunately" and "less huntsman snipers" in the same sentence~~

Wow, I had no idea you could deflect arrows. That's kind of cool.

Yeah, I had the backburner for a while, but after I got the Hot On Your Heels acheivement I went right back.
