Hi guys

@YaakovEllis, I'm guessing that the Balalaika is awarded for posting a comment (not necessarily upvoted) on an old question that has recently been answered. Is this correct?

Please ignore my previous comment.

@YaakovEllis, a Balalaika is a three-stringed musical instrument that two strings tuned to the same note and the third string is higher. I'm guessing that the Balalaika is awarded to someone posting a comment on a question that has exactly three answers, two of which have the same score and the third that has a higher score. Is this correct?

*that has two

It doesn't have to be adding a comment. It could be any action such as editing the question or adding an answer.

This room is so quiet now :-)

I've got a balalaika

Hey

Was anybody able to get the Happy New Year hat? I thought I qualified for it on german.stackexchange. But maybe it's a glitch?

@ouflak I got the hat

@U11-Forward, So you posted on chat yesterday and got a message starred. Correct?

@ouflak Yeah

Hmmm... @U11-Forward, If I may ask, what chat room?

Cool. Maybe, the chat room just didn't have the exchange site as a parent or something.

@ouflak Yeah probably

And for the fourth year in a row I am hat king of Ethereum :D

@JoelReyesNoche nope

Well I bashed the dash, such a shame I didn't get play rights until today so I don't get the secret cheater hat
