@X-27wantstoReinstateMonica no
(probably)
@NogShine yes you have 6 colours less
So there is not even a one fresh hat?
@AnkitSharma probably not.
Sad
I think I got all the possible hats now I have to see myself falling in leaderboard like every year
@AnkitSharma really? Nah you'll get more. and that's not counting the date based hats.
I will be on trip from 19
Getting 9k views means I need to ask HNQ
02:22
Oh. bad timing.
5 accepted answer, hmmm I am trying but people need to ask more easy question on movies :D
I can try again on new year
@AnkitSharma I know that is a lost cause on BSE.
@AnkitSharma don't forget you can get them on other sites.
I always used to get 5 accept on movies but no big release lately
@David lot of work
frozen, Starwars...
@AnkitSharma too true.
Also no hat for getting X rep on 3 sites this year?
@David they are not getting much
But can we all agree to change our avatars/names to pro-monica front page spam closer to the end? :)
03:22
@AnkitSharma I didn't have enough rep to add that tag on movies, but you added the wrong tag. You added spirit-stallion-of-the-cimarro
It needs an n at the end :)
@X-27wantstoReinstateMonica sorry, fixed
lol np - I would have added it, but the whole new user thing.
At least I get an indicator that says people have to be nice! XD
Happy to help
I assume it was also your UV, so thanks for Hero of Time ;)
03:49
@AnkitSharma @VerNicksaysReinstateMonica Thanks
Where is devil? I want to make a deal for hat
04:08
I found a way to show all the colours.
Switching to Desktop mode.

A: How do I start Winterbash knitting on mobile?

Nog ShineI found another way to start knitting. Winterbash2019 is in responsive design such that the mobile phone screen mode by default when used on mobile devices. Select menu button in your browser app. Select 'Desktop site'. This will show you full site and 'Start Knitting' option in portrait mode...

Hoping for Shiver me Timbers hat is too much though.
04:33
Does anybody have a bug when opening any post on knitting page it flies off somewhere to another post?
Oh, it has just disappeared. I had it yesterday.
05:04
Rubber Ducky discarding a question didn't work. Anyone got it?
It is something related to 007 hat.
05:49
I hate it when everybody tries to leave a comment on your post so you can't get 007
06:18
They are trying for just jesting hat.
07:14
Is there a minimum difference between accepted answer and our answer to earn Shiver me Timbers hat?
@NogShine at least 2
Is there a time limit?
@NogShine don't think so
@NogShine just that the accepted answer should have a score of 2 or more, that means your answer should be 4 or more
Minimum requirement for accepted answer is 2?
I think try for it again.
@NogShine yes
07:38
I can't get hero of time hat even when i post a question on a exact hour
Strange
@NogShine How did you get it?
Also rubber ducky
@U10-Forward-ReinstateMonica I think its only quilified for the hat if you receive an upvote. Will do so now on your question on SO
Done
no problem
@U10-Forward-ReinstateMonica yeah discarding didn't work for me
07:49
@U10-Forward-ReinstateMonica hero of time arrived ;-)
@Heslacher The upvote also should be at 7?
@VerNicksaysReinstateMonica No, since the up-vote i got wasn't at seven
My hats are getting more and more
@Heslacher
1 vote away from Snapchat 😎
07:53
@CinCout Where?
@U10-Forward-ReinstateMonica SO
@CinCout done
@Heslacher got it :D thanks
Hello
@Eran hi
I'm having a very slow start with hats this year.
Oh yeah, I'll finally get 007
I shouldn't have proposed a hat for a golden badge
It sucks
@VerNicksaysReinstateMonica I got it on meta :D
08:02
@CinCout I don't have it
I'm thinking of earning Electorate, Vote on 600 questions and 25% or more of total votes are on questions
It's the easiest I have
@VerNicksaysReinstateMonica that's the one I targeted as well
@VerNicksaysReinstateMonica I got all the easy golden badges including Electorate already :(
Maybe my only bet is a second Steward badge
@U10-Forward-ReinstateMonica you can always get Electorate on a new SE site
@U10-Forward-ReinstateMonica Go earn Electorate on Code Golf
For example
08:05
Okay, good idea
I try Mse
The great answer hat is much harder
Actually I can easily get Famous Question on M&TV if I ask a good question
@Eran The guy who knitted Reinstate Monica earned it in one day :(
@VerNicksaysReinstateMonica Welz and X27
I really don't like knittings this year, cause people just load images 1140x442 and that's it
@VerNicksaysReinstateMonica Yeah
4 upvoted comments, six to go!
08:23
@VerNicksaysReinstateMonica yes, that was an easy way to earn that hat on MSE this year. I'm 9 votes away from a great answer on SO, but it probably won't happen during this WB.
@U10-Forward-ReinstateMonica I got 3 upvoted comments lol let's help each other
Anyway, I'm not going to try to get all the hats this time. Some of them are too hard for me (Fashionable and Living in the Future, and probably Red Baron too)
Yup @Eran same as me
@Eran 7 votes to go
08:26
@VerNicksaysReinstateMonica thanks, but that was unnecessary. And I was referring to another answer (at 91), since the 92 answer doesn't get new votes anymore.
@Eran 6 now
@VerNicksaysReinstateMonica Upvoted 2 of you comments already on MSE
3
There's actually an answer by some other guy that would get me a gold badge (Populist) if it gets 1 more upvote.
@U10-Forward-ReinstateMonica You got 5 to go, but I'm still finding your comments
@Eran Give a link
@VerNicksaysReinstateMonica it's the accepted answer of this question - stackoverflow.com/questions/26205409
@Eran done
08:31
@CinCout thanks!
Just to make it clear. I don't need any upvotes for my own answer on that question.
@VerNicksaysReinstateMonica You should get it now upvoted lots
@U10-Forward-ReinstateMonica You got 2 to go

A: Clear variable in python

U10-Forward - Reinstate Monica If want to totally delete it use del: del your_variable Or otherwise, to Make the value None: your_variable = None If it's an iterable (such as a list or tuple), you can make it empty like: your_variable.clear() Then your_variable will be empty

Is my only bet of guru badge
although impossible :P
I am still trying to get Shiver me Timbers hat and self answer hats. I selected wrong question for Shiver me Timbers hat and tried once again.
@U10-Forward-ReinstateMonica Ok, hat is yours ;)
08:34
@U10-Forward-ReinstateMonica shouldn't your answer be accepted and +40 for Guru badge?
Yup
Oh yeah so impossible
So now way
@U10-Forward-ReinstateMonica true, I have one at 23 :(
I think I have one answer on SO missing one vote for Guru.
@U10-Forward-ReinstateMonica and one at 73 for Universe Brain.
I have to think of a unbelievable answer which will get a Great Answer... oh wait, it's impossible -_-
08:36
@Eran that is achivable
I got my Populist gold badge, so a hat should arrive shortly.
@Eran yay
08:37
Btw, who are knitting using a mobile?
@NogShine +1
@U10-Forward-ReinstateMonica @Eran Thanks.
Suggestions for Winter Bash 2019 — "Hat for closing duplicates" -> there should be a secret hat, I got it
Supposingly 180*
I found it very difficult to knit on mobile. Moreover 6 colours are cropped out if we knit on mobile.
@NogShine +1
@U10-Forward-ReinstateMonica +1
08:39
This is a way I found to see all the colours.
@CinCout Thanks
@VerNicksaysReinstateMonica I still don't have the 10 upvote comment hat
You do but i don't
@U10-Forward-ReinstateMonica Send me some of your comments
@U10-Forward-ReinstateMonica Several links
08:43
Holy shoot! How did you do that!
@VerNicksaysReinstateMonica Yeah. 😶
@VerNicksaysReinstateMonica haha
@U10-Forward-ReinstateMonica Now you MUST get the hat
08:46
@U10-Forward-ReinstateMonica looks like you have enough upvoted comments.
@U10-Forward-ReinstateMonica congrats
Yay, I got my Foot of the Rainbow! Thanks for the help.
Now it's time to earn snaphat
@Eran congrats
@Eran You should wear it )
should the answer for Merlin need to be posted during WB?
My hats are piled
Maybe offering to much but one up-vote away from everything

A: Trouble unpacking list in a customized way

U10-Forward - Reinstate MonicaAs of Python 3.3, you can use yield from: def get_item(): yield from ["k","y","t"] if __name__ == '__main__': for item in get_item(): print(item) Output: k y t yield from is a new trick introduced in Python 3.3, a short part of it: For simple iterators, yield from itera...

@U10-Forward-ReinstateMonica haha nice
@U10-Forward-ReinstateMonica +1
08:51
@CinCout Thanks so much for 2 more hats!
@U10-Forward-ReinstateMonica got merlin?
Waiting
Probably will
@U10-Forward-ReinstateMonica nice. I am 2 short
@U10-Forward-ReinstateMonica thanks. 1 to go
08:53
How the hell didn't Ankit get 5 accepted answers in a day?
@VerNicksaysReinstateMonica I got that hat last year
@VerNicksaysReinstateMonica I didn't. who says I did
@VerNicksaysReinstateMonica or are you talking about Sharma?
Yeah, about Sharma
@CinCout Well, you didn't get it too, so... ^_^
@VerNicksaysReinstateMonica I read your question as 'did' :D
I have to get off PC bye!
08:58
@U10-Forward-ReinstateMonica bye
@U10-Forward-ReinstateMonica Bye!
@U10-Forward-ReinstateMonica bye
Thanks!
@Eran +1
@VerNicksaysReinstateMonica thanks
@CinCout thanks
@CinCout done
09:07
@CinCout +1, what is the trigger?
@Eran thanks
@VerNicksaysReinstateMonica thanks. Enlightened badge
Thanks

A: Spiderman: Far From Home - Disney or Sony Rights?

Ver Nick says Reinstate MonicaSony Pictures has film rights to the character. Marvel has owned Spider-Man since his inception. They do, and have always, owned Spider-Man. If you’re asking about the film rights specifically, that’s more complicated. Disney owns Marvel. Marvel owns the Spider-Man character. Every ...

@VerNicksaysReinstateMonica +1
09:14
@CinCout Thanks
I think that if they are doing a WinterBash where all the hat designs and triggers are recycled, they might as well include all the hats of all past Winterbashes (eliminating only duplicate/similar triggers). It would be fun to try to win 100+ different hats.
Oh my
That's tooooo much
But you can ask for that on 2020 WB suggestions
@VerNicksaysReinstateMonica yeah. that might get you Great Answer ;)
🤦‍♀️
I'll never get Great Answer :)
@CinCout not this year. There are too many users in MSE opposed to having fun this year, which I can partly understand.
09:21
@VerNicksaysReinstateMonica challenge should be to get it on the main sites, not meta
@Eran yeah. sad state of affairs
@Eran They seem to "be opposed" while happily collecting the hats and knitting.
lunch time. See you people later :)
@CinCout see you later
I got 180 hat!
09:34
HOW?!
Must be something with close/reopen
I voted to close a question (it was closed, since I had dup-hammer), edited it and voted to re-open
That's what the trigger was when it was a regular hat, so...
I'm not sure if it has to be re-opened (mine was), or it's enough to cast a re-open vote.
09:51
topped SO WB leaderboard 😎
@VerNicksaysReinstateMonica me too
@CinCout I mean you are #5 on SE network, I'm #63 XD
@VerNicksaysReinstateMonica haha ok
got 180
Does the old trigger work?
09:58
@VerNicksaysReinstateMonica yup. Close. Edit. Vote to reopen
10:12
For 007, should the answer be posted during WB?
if not, I am 1 vote short
thanks
@CinCout I think it should be posted during WB.
10:27
@Eran yeah looks like. Since I didn't get the hat
11:02
They're asking too much for 007
It's a lot of effort to avoid any comments
11:57
in Tavern on the Meta on Meta Stack Exchange Chat, 9 mins ago, by Mithical
If anyone wants to edit old posts and do something useful, consider adding image descriptions to posts that need them.
For anyone in search of Werewolf Hunter.
12:38
So, say I want to have 007. I have a good answer somewhere with more than 7 score. Can I just flag and have the comments removed to get the hat?
@JL2210 no. deleted comments are still counted.

@VerNicksaysReinstateMonica just knitting, no hats shall be worn by this user. But yep, I get your point.

A: Reviewer deleted my comments and i do not think he have enough reason to do so

This includes answers that are: commentary on the question or other answers asking another, different question “thanks!” or “me too!” responses exact duplicates of other answers barely m...

@CinCout Discarding a question didn't get me Rubber Ducky either, despite waiting over half a day. Any updates on how to get it?
18:39
@dbc FWIW, I just got it in <1 hour from discarding a question on MSE. Trying to reproduce it on RPG
@dbc I'm still waiting for mine as well, on Super User

@Rubiksmoose Maybe there's something meta-specific. I'll try discarding a question on meta stack overflow.

I received my duck on MSE. Simply fill in the title, a reasonable size question, and some tags. Wait until it says "Draft Saved" and hit discard. It didn't take a half hour.

Q: Winter Bash hats for side-facing avatars

einpoklum - reinstate MonicaSome users' avatars aren't front-facing, umm, faces, but rather side-facing. But essentially all of the Winter Bash hats only have a front-facing version. Next year please consider a side-facing version of some hats.

dbc
dbc
Seems like Rubber Ducky requires discarding a question on Meta. I discarded one on Meta Stack Overflow and got the hat 15 minutes later.
Think I should update the secret hats post on Meta?
@dbc Looks like I got mine on RPG as well after discarding a post on RPG meta.

Q: Is the Rubber Ducky hat only triggering off of Meta sites?

RubiksmooseIt seems that the Rubber Ducky hat is only triggering for me when I discard a post on either Meta.SE or on Meta RPG.se, but would not trigger when I discarded a question on main RPG.se. At least two other people have reported similar findings with SO and SU. Also, if I recall correctly, there wa...

Marco Aurelio Fernandez ReyesI created this account for answer some questions on Stack Overflow and also, for obtain some hats.

I don't want spoil myself by checking the secret hats and I know some hats requires more goals ...
