When will I be getting detective hat, by the way?
I got my 3 secrets 3 hours ago
 
1:16 AM
@nobody What are you saying?
4 hours ago, by Yaakov Ellis
@Wolgwang confirmed
@DonThousand On one site?
 
@Wolgwang Ok, I missed that.
So what was the exact trigger?
 
4 hours ago, by Wolgwang
@YaakovEllis Detective hat is given after getting 3 secret hats?
 
So I you guess you should add the trigger on the hat list.
 
I have to do a lot of work on that question (adding new hats and changing all svgshare links of second answer to imgur) but I am on mobile phone right now.
 
 
2 hours later…
3:07 AM
Ah, on two sites @Wolgwang
 
@DonThousand You have got your answer :-)
 
4:07 AM
@Catija @YaakovEllis Just Visiting chat.stackexchange.com triggers the TB hat.
No need to even send a single message.
or join any room
 
Probably only because you already qualified and you're just changing parents.
So I guess you can't test on this server. There's two others... 😬
 
@Catija But if I try it on chat.SO on which parent site will I get the hat?
 
The "bug" I mentioned earlier isn't really a bug because we have no way of distinguishing which site a room is parented to, only which site a user has set as a parent. Yaakov can explain it better. So your parent determines which site you earn the hat on, if you qualify.
@Wolgwang ... you can't parent chat profiles on chat.so..
 
Ohk
 
Or chat.meta.se, for that matter.
 
4:14 AM
I have got TB hat on meta from chat.se so I won't get another hat on meta from chat.mse?
 
Correct
 
Fortunately I haven't got the TB hat on SO so I can test on chat.SO
XD
 
Technically you can earn the hat on all sites from chat.se because you can parent your profile to MSE and SO
But don't if you want to test!
 
4:27 AM
Yeah. So I can confirm that reparenting if you already have the hat will just award the hat again, so any data you've collected about it with subsequent sites on chat.se is bad data.
 
 
1 hour later…
5:36 AM
I believe I've earned both the Rep Cap and Hi5 hats, but they haven't shown up so far (5.5 hrs). With Hi5 in particular, do the answers have to be both posted and accepted on the same day, or just accepted on the same day, even if one or more were posted earlier?
 
Is it okay to unstar Yaakov's notice about "hat awards are frozen" because while it's helpful to know at that time, it's no longer relevant now?
 
5:53 AM
@Catija One buried penny hat for editing a post that was inactive for more than 6 months?
(Also Can we ping any SE employee or only YaakovEllis?)
 
6:08 AM
for Tenacious question not necessarily be during winter bash right?
 
Hmm?
 
> Answer your own question three or more days later with an answer of score five or greater.
I saw a bug but the refresh and bang it's gone
 
7:18 AM
@Wolgwang You're on the right track, but this needs refinement
@AnkitSharma I believe so, as far as I remember the intent here is in part to encourage people to go back and answer their own old questions with the knowledge they've learned since then
 
@Slate good, now need to dig more in past
 
Fellow hat hunters:

@Catija One buried penny hat for editing a post that was inactive for more than 6 months?
Can you test this for different time period?
 
7:35 AM
@Wolgwang tried with one answer and one question, let's see
 
@AnkitSharma Inactive for more than 12 months?
 
@Wolgwang more then 6 months
It should be 1 year?
 
I thought it was 6 months as there is a "Archaeologist" badge for editing 100 posts that were inactive for 6 months...
 
how many posts?
 
@AnkitSharma It should be >1yr or >2yr
 
7:39 AM
oh
 
@AnkitSharma IG editing one post gives single penny hat
and editing two post gives the hat that I am wearing
 
Not getting that one will try something else
 
@Wolgwang IG editing?
 
I posted 100 chat messages over a span of 5 hours with 5 minutes breaking between the batch of 5 messages.
No TB hat :-(
@Luuklag I guess editing
Is there some hat for giving bounties?
 
7:51 AM
@Wolgwang Go place one ;)
 
@Luuklag I had placed it 12 hours before the WB started so If I give it now...?
@Luuklag Doing that now :-)
Is there a condition that new users can't give bounty? :-/
@Luuklag You should also add "on one site condition" in that post.
 
@Catija ooooh
 
It is a privilege.
 
What?
 
/help/privileges/set-bounties
 
8:07 AM
@soupless Hmm I have 100 associate reps
 
wait that should work
 
Ok done
 
8:30 AM
Hmmm - just got Spotting Scope on Physics - the only activity I had there was from review queues. I was the final close voter on a couple and 2nd last on a couple - wonder if this is a vote to close a question that then gets closed hat
 
Any hat tips?
Any secret hat guesses?
I got monologue
Probably something related asking a question with high votes that receives an answer
with votes as well
How to get Satellite view?
 
Rob
8:45 AM
@YaakovEllis Thanks for fixing the lack of hats in SO chat rooms, I was just about to write it up when it suddenly was fixed.
 
@Rob Sure. I'll take credit, though I didn't do anything
 
Rob
OK, it was my incoming complaint that triggered the repair.
@YaakovEllis I think it was re-parenting my chat user was met with an abnormally long period of time to switch from one hat to another, where I was hatless inbetween.
 
@U12-F̉͋̅̾̇orward One burried penny
 
I need another one to get that hat lol
 
Edit a post with +ve score which was inactive for >1 year
@U12-F̉͋̅̾̇orward Hmm?
 
8:58 AM
Oh never knew that!
Will try it
 
Does anyone know who already has the satellite view?
 
7 mins ago, by Wolgwang
Edit a post with +ve score which was inactive for >1 year
@YaakovEllis Is this true for One buried penny?
 
@Wolgwang Jose Carlos Santos has 6 secret hats: math.stackexchange.com/users/446262/…
 
@soupless Yeah I know I have just submitted a bug report ...
 
9:13 AM
not exactly
 
Not exactly for this ?
 
I have been editing all posts all the time and I haven't got that hat yet
 
@Dharman Old one?
 
@Wolgwang Yes. This is not the criteria
 
Let's try editing the first question of the site. Just kidding, I would be suspended for that
 
9:18 AM
hi @U12-F̉͋̅̾̇orward :)
 
@YaakovEllis Ohk. Are hats visible to only registered users? If someone who doesn't have an account visits the profile, hats are not visible, right?
Hi @U12-F̉͋̅̾̇orward
 
@Wolgwang old one, new one, everything
 
@Wolgwang correct, only visible for logged in users
 
Can we get a hat for not wearing hats?
 
9:19 AM
@Dharman Take a look here.
 
any one has any theories to test?
 
@Wolgwang Only one action and got the hat.
 
@Wolgwang Done that, not hat yet :(
 
@Wolgwang What can you deduce from this @U12-F̉͋̅̾̇orward ?
 
9:30 AM
@Wolgwang you approved a suggested edit and revised it later, didn't you?
 
Suggested edit approved from a post more than a year ago?
 
@JasperHabicht I don't have enough reps to review edits LOL
 
@Wolgwang okay, but ... maybe this is the thing here?
 
@JasperHabicht Revised means that the post got revised after the edit was approved.
 
@Wolgwang yes
 
Do you get E-pic after editing a question before getting any answer?
 
@Wolgwang which action are you referring to? And for which hat?
 
earned spotting scope just now
was very active in review queues
also edited a single post which was inactive for more than a year, even though the post itself was more than 5 years old
@YaakovEllis could this be the trigger for Spotting Scope?
 
9:48 AM
spotting scope is probably related to initiating a lot of (close?) reviews
 
@JasperHabicht you mean casting close votes?
 
or delete votes?
 
@CinCout casting close votes
 
@Wolgwang not this for sure. I didn't cast any stackoverflow.com/users/2912665/…
@JasperHabicht this is a probability
try casting say 5 close votes anyone
@U12-F̉͋̅̾̇orward here's something to try
 
@CinCout you'll probably get the helping finger after having cast some fewer votes
 
9:57 AM
Spotting scope is for casting close votes that other people agree with. It's just unclear what type or how many are needed
 
@JasperHabicht didnt get that
 
Oh and you'll only get it after they have been +vely reviewed
 
@U12-F̉͋̅̾̇orward never mind, you already have the hat :D
 
@JasperHabicht How to get helping finger?
 
9:58 AM
Tried writing.se for Sunrise with soem pending question I had from some time
 
@U12-F̉͋̅̾̇orward I don't know, but I cast quite a lot of closing votes and after some time (I assume after these votes have been reviewed and the closure was finally accepted), I got the helping finger and the spotting scope
 
@U12-F̉͋̅̾̇orward "quite a lot" means something between 5 and 10 in a row, I don't really remember
 
just got thought bubble
something to do with leaving comments
 
Oh, and now I finally got my thought bubble on the same site and therefore also the detective =)
@CinCout more like, with chat, I think
 
@JasperHabicht dont think so. I got it on SO
 
@CinCout No -_-
 
@JasperHabicht congrats
 
@CinCout Because your parent site is SO
 
10:03 AM
closed a lot
done
 
@Wolgwang oh that counts? Not sure
 
@U12-F̉͋̅̾̇orward you got it immediately? you've got enough reputation then, I assume?
 
Getting off pc now
@JasperHabicht I didn't get the hat yet :)
Closed like 20
just now
was the last vote of all of them
 
@CinCout See
 
@U12-F̉͋̅̾̇orward I see, take care!
 
10:05 AM
Saw them in the tools page
 
@Wolgwang haha ok
 
YESSS
Got satelite view
And also Detecter
Nice, 8 hats
 
What can I a low rep user do ? :-(
 
@U12-F̉͋̅̾̇orward but it could be that you need to be the first one to cast a close vote on some post
@Wolgwang earn more rep veeeeery quickly =D
 
10:07 AM
@U12-F̉͋̅̾̇orward whoa nice
 
3rd network-wide now
will be busy after
prolly won't win
 
@JasperHabicht -_-
 
@Wolgwang yeah, you're right ... not very fair
 
:-/
 
whenever i try for one hat, I end up getting random secret hat instead not the one I tried
 
10:18 AM
guys, Rapport already exists for validated close votes
 
10:44 AM
For sunrise even single vote counts
 
@AnkitSharma first question as in on a new site?
 
@CinCout yes
I got it after it got 1 upvote after edit
 
@AnkitSharma hm ok
 
11:28 AM
Just got the "spotting scope" was trying to get the other review based hats but whatever I did in the "close", "edit" and "re-open" queues has triggered this hat.
I wonder it is something to do with reviewing different tags? Just thinking of the name of it "Spotting scope"?
 
A J
How close we are to find out about Thought Bubble?
 
@AJ try posting a few messages here and see if you get it
 
AJ is already thinking.
2
 
A J
:D
 
Post 10 messages in chat
 
11:41 AM
What is the key to getting the review hats, it says "validated" but what does that mean exactly? I've completed reviews and others who have reviewed and agreed with the outcome??
@Dharman is that any chat or just this one?
 
In any chat room
 
A J
@Dharman I didn't post a thing in the IPS chatroom, but still I got the hat.
 
All the bots got this hat and this is the only thing they do.
3
So, AJ give your hat back
It might count just a presence in a chat room, but that would be a little bit stupid
 
Any ideas what I'm doing wrong with the review hats, Consensus, Rapport and Harmony?
Trying to understand what is meant by "reviews validated"??
 
A J
 
11:46 AM
@AJ This is the last message I've seen about it: chat.stackexchange.com/transcript/132350?m=59890922#59890922
@AJ You get the hat for your chat "parent user" site
 
Is thought bubble sure already?
 
@AnkitSharma Where did you ask the new question?
 
A J
@RafaelTavares Can I find out the time I got the hat?
 
@AJ Very far
7 hours ago, by Catija
Yeah. So I can confirm that reparenting if you already have the hat will just award the hat again, so any data you've collected about it with subsequent sites on chat.se is bad data.
 
@RafaelTavares useful thanks
 
11:52 AM
@AJ I don't think so. @Wolgwang asked this very same question yesterday (in chat), but I didn't see if someone answered
 
@Wolgwang writing.se
 
17 hours ago, by Wolgwang
@Catija Is there a way to know the time when a user received a hat?
 
The secret hats a bit of a headache this year
 
@Wolgwang ?
 
On which SE site can I ask a good question? :-/
 
11:55 AM
@Wolgwang that only you can judge
 
@Dharman Nope
 
Just got "Manual Key" looks like a secret hat.
 
@YaakovEllis Can a user get thought bubble hat on Chat.SO ?
 
A J
IIRC, I saw the hat today. And I have posted messages in the chat yesterday.
 
@user692942 Same pinch
 
11:57 AM
@Wolgwang Not seeing "Manual Key" on the secret hat list
 
@Wolgwang hints?
 
@user692942 add it
 
@AnkitSharma Keyboard= Konami code?
 
@Wolgwang what
 
11:58 AM
@AnkitSharma Maybe typing konami code on wb site...
@user692942 What? On meta post?
 
@Wolgwang they should be able to
 
@Wolgwang didn't do anything like that, only time I've been on meta is on the winter-bash list
