A: Please don't refer to 2019 as 'a great year'

U10-Forward - Reinstate MonicaAfter this post: Update: an agreement with Monica Cellio If everything works out fine, and Monica is reinstated to her original position, we could call it a great year or at least not a super bad year. Maybe you didn't notice, Monica changed her profile image from: Back to: So it does se...

@MauricioContreras then just don't use SE until the 2nd.
@JesseBusman Jan 1st
@AJ your idea for blue did not work (I tried a few combinations, my answer, other's answer, Comment before and after edit, and more I can't remember I think all answers had UVs so there is that to try.)
In other news I'm pretty sure I cracked the new 007 :)
@YaakovEllis regarding 007's new trigger. well done. good trigger! Can I have my Eureka! or Archimedes now? :)
Well now I know for sure which hat "definitely does" have some semblance to their respective hat trigger
so blue is a harder trigger. and the name does not mean anything for the trigger. hmm not much to go on.

@David This was the possible thing I could think of when I got that hat.
@David What is it?
 
no matter what happened it is always a good feeling to figure out a trigger.
@AJ thats the (odd) thing. I don't really want to tell everyone.
maybe some hints first
how does that sound?
anyone have an account on lego.se? My Shiver Me Timbers need one more UV
 
3:42 AM
someone, anyone talk to me. Do you all want a hint(s) or for me just to spill the trigger?
 
A J
4:28 AM
@David You could tell me privately. :P
@David There you go. ;P
 
@AJ Thank you!
 
@AJ I could, but what is the fun in that? You already have 007, it not like you "need" it.
 
A J
@David I don't have 007. I have Blue in the Face.
 
Oh. well then that changes things. (I must be going crazy, thought sure you had it.)
@AJ If you dont mind I'll start with a hint.
 
A J
4:33 AM
OK. Sure.
 
007 trigger hint. "Each individual digit does not have to account for something."

worded after pops' great hat hints
@AJ would it look odd/bad if I pin that?
 
A J
Not sure.
 
ok then you pin it :)
</jk>
 
A J
Done
Does it have to do anything with the chat?
 
@AJ (this has nothing to do with the trigger.) how many answers have you posted during the WB? I only saw one.
@AJ I'll give a second hint in 12 hours.
(and if no one has figured it out yet I'll post the trigger on Christmas.)
 
4:49 AM
@David 7 answers with 0 comments/votes?
 
@CinCout-ReinstateMonica no further hints (or answers) till Dec 24 16:00 UTC (plus or minus a few minutes)
 
@David atleast tell if my guess is in the right direction?
if it is, the trigger is a hard one for sure
 
@CinCout-ReinstateMonica Patience.
(its hard I know.)
 
A J
@David Yeah only one.
 
4:58 AM
@AJ wow I guess you are not going for rep hunter.
 
A J
yep
 
that is a hard one (especially on smaller sites)
I was rather lucky to get it this year.
Last year I got to frustrated with it and quit.
 
@David I am trying for SO, which is no smaller site :D
wait were you talking about Rep Hunter. Silly me
 
@CinCout-ReinstateMonica yep. what were you think I was talking about?
 
5:01 AM
Ok
grr I so want to say something about that hat. but I must wait.
 
@David you are tempted. Spill it already :P
 
nope. you are not going to make me break.
 
@David is it your Christmas Gift to us or something?
 
evil plan hatches maybe I can get extort enough votes on the old hat list to get universe brain
 
@David aren't those Community Wiki?
 
5:09 AM
@CinCout-ReinstateMonica call it want you want. But I'm trying to give that awesome feeling of figuring out a trigger to others. (it really is less fun to just look at the hat list)
@CinCout-ReinstateMonica yes. so?
 
@David the votes won't count to get you the hat, no?
@David well, currently we are flying blind. A little perspective might help ;)
 
@CinCout-ReinstateMonica sure it will. I've done this before :) you can get the great answer badge for CW answers.
@CinCout-ReinstateMonica you all have the same information I did.
 
@David whoa. Didn't know that. So only the original poster gets it, or all those who contributed via edits?
 
@CinCout-ReinstateMonica nope just the OP
 
@David hah. alright
 
5:14 AM
@CinCout-ReinstateMonica see edited message with link.
 
yeah saw that
+1 on the old hat list
 
only 14 more to go. Still a nearly impossible number.
 
@David yeah. since it is an old post
 
I thought of bountying it but not sure how many DVs that will bring. :/
 
@David haha yeah

Hello
 
7:25 AM
Here's my next attempt for Shiver Me Timbers: stackoverflow.com/questions/59463115/… 4 votes to go
 
7:48 AM
@David I already upvoted the old hat list answer last year, so I can't help with that.
 
8:39 AM
@David Yeah right, that's a politically correct answer. But, would you respond this way to people asking for neutral pronouns? Don't use the platform. Nice one.

@David Could you give me Mother of Dragons?
 
Hi

Evening!
 
Happy holidays
 
A J
1:10 PM
Heh. not for me. We don't get holidays for Christmas. :)
 
@AJ Neither for me. We celebrate Hanukkah, but no days off work for me.
 
2:05 PM
@MauricioContreras wow. So you come into a chat room specifically for the WB to criticize to WB. Then when someone who likes the WB offers an alternative you lash out?
 
Hi David
 
@AJ I would of when you mentioned it before, but I do not have an account on ell. If you do not have 3 by the end of 3 days I'll make sure you get the hat.
@Eran hello

2:29 PM
@David ohh. Okay.
 
3:21 PM
anyone trying to figure out 007 or you all just waiting for me to spill it?
 
3:42 PM
Second 007 hint. "Why not just call it 'double 7'?"

To prove I really did know the trigger here is the SHA-3 hash of the trigger:

4:20 PM
@David is it awarded for posting a +7 answer for a +7 question?
 
5:11 PM
@Eran yeah this makes sense
