U12-Forward

@JamesRisner By the way, could you vote my top show off your hats answer this year, might trigger four ayes

the one with 9 votes, you cant revert your hats after 30 mins

James Risner

I'm leary on up-voting that changes rep

U12-Forward

Ok then, hope it comes naturally

James Risner

It will, I get constant votes on min since this morning ;-)

ok, I'll need to edit that post. bear with me please

U12-Forward

I did step 1

No problem

James Risner

U12-Forward

Here is my non rep changing upvote request: meta.stackoverflow.com/questions/422213/…

Done step 6 with apple.stackexchange.com/questions/452101/…

@U12-Forward 4 more votes should give me Over 9000

Steffan

over 9000 is 10 votes you think?

James Risner

sec.

Over 9000:
The 9000 is a red herring.
https://chat.stackexchange.com/transcript/141302?m=62585998#62585998
Unrelated to totalling to 9000 or more.
https://chat.stackexchange.com/transcript/message/62575689#62575689
Not from earning a gold badge.

Q: Is www.lirik.live/soal-https-stackoverflow.com a phishing site?

I accidentally hit this question from Google Search (written in code on purpose to prevent others to open it) while logged in on SO. https://www.lirik.live/soal-https-stackoverflow.com/questions/72185081/hide-show-parameters-based-on-a-condition-in-azure-devops-pipelines-yaml# After a while, I n...

That's my file on over 9000

U12-Forward

Exactly, try with mine, I am at 6, 4 away :)

Steffan

7*

James Risner

One from previous years is a comment getting 3 upvotes. Think we could find some others willing to hammer a comment with ups?

U12-Forward

Thanks! @Steffan

Steffan

so unrelated to totalling to more than 9000, but you think related to totalling more than 9?

U12-Forward

03:27

@Steffan Very possible

Steffan

I'm not convinced but okay

U12-Forward

Jon Clements had no activity on stackoverflow during WB, yet he got the hat on Stackoverflow

He only used Meta for one question

Steffan

what if you don't need to even ask a question?

U12-Forward

Which was discussion and a lot of upvotes

Steffan

it might not have to be discussion

U12-Forward

03:29

Quite possible too

James Risner

oo many edits

You have already edited 10 of your own posts today (not including very recent posts). Further edits are not allowed until tomorrow.

Please contact a moderator if you require assistance.

I'll need to wait until tomorrow to finish Step 7

Don't delete those comments yet (that is step 8)

@U12-Forward over 9000?

U12-Forward

Ok

@JamesRisner Yes

James Risner

So jon got it on stackoverflow but his only question was on Meta?

U12-Forward

Yes

That's why I want to try it with my question

James Risner

This? meta.stackoverflow.com/questions/422213

ok what you need me to do?

I put a comment on it.

U12-Forward

03:43

Thanks!

You upvoted it right?

James Risner

It's meta, no rep.

Steffan

@JamesRisner I've got that before on CGCC but it was like 30 edits or something, not 10.

(I was editing answers adding explanations)

U12-Forward

@Steffan H

Ah

James Risner

Think apple is stingy on edits

@U12-Forward did you find and upvote a nice genuine upvote new contributor?

(Step 6)

Steffan

the thing is, how would that relate to you getting a hat?

that doesn't make sense

James Risner

03:46

It won't

it checks if we discovered the trigger.

I'm just adding to my list of 20+ trigger eliminated.

Step 8:
Post a chat message that gets 3 stars.

I'd also like to eliminate that one (3star chat)

U12-Forward

@JamesRisner Yes

Done step 6 with https://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/452101/how-to-switch-to-displayport-on-2008-macbook-without-os-x

James Risner

Step 9:
I post 3 comments under a user's first post

Step 10:
you upvote those comments.

I'll post them on that Step 6

U12-Forward

ok

James Risner

Step 11:
We wait to see user3169 takes my advice and updates their post - Post two po
sitively scored comments under a user's first post and the OP edits the question
after the comment

I'm following the Step 6 post so we know if they took the advice and edited.

This is a previous year:
Soapbox
Ask a question with the discussion tag on a meta site that gets a score
of 2 or more and receives 2 or more answers.
Gregorio Y. Zara & Emperor's New Hat can't be this. {Kadir}

U12-Forward

Ah

I just got Over 9000!

Wow!

James Risner

03:57

Woot

so SOMEthing we did is it.

U12-Forward

I think it's for 9 upvotes in a discussion meta question

James Risner

where you get 9?

U12-Forward

On StackOverflow

on Meta

James Risner

link?

no, sorry

where you get 9?

U12-Forward

9

Q: Merge the tags [indexoutofrangeexception] and [outofrangeexception]

There are these two tags: indexoutofrangeexception with 399 questions. outofrangeexception with 250 questions. These tags have very similar tag wiki excerpt and also are used for the same type of questions. Both of them are used for the "Index out of range" errors in many different programmin...

discussion tags synonym-request

James Risner

03:58

"over 9000"?

the idea of it being 9

(I like the idea)

sec let me get my list of over 9000's

U12-Forward

cool

James Risner

still looking....

too many files

U12-Forward

Wow

I am so close to 4 Ayes I think

James Risner

04:05

what you think 4 ayes is?

also which one of those steps you think is over 9000?

U12-Forward

@JamesRisner 5 continuous days of getting upvotes on a certain post, so I need one here

9

A: Show off your hats! (2022 edition)

I will join you on the stage! snail noises...

James Risner

Ok, based on timing it looks like the post 12 comments -> up them

You got a post you want me to 12 comment and you up?

@U12-Forward I'm only at 2 days.

U12-Forward

Maybe here: stackoverflow.com/questions/58853468/…

James Risner

12 in

You up them, then edit the post to improve it.

One prior year is them getting an up. The other is deleting, so will wait 30 min to delete

Sreffan left us ;-)

@U12 meta.stackexchange.com/users/295232 he is exactly 5 day in and got 4ayes

I think it's probably an up a day for 4 days?

Steffan

04:23

sorry going to bed

James Risner

You great! No need to be sorry

I was mostly joking

Steffan

lol

James Risner

sleep

I think we know over 9000 and Four ayes now

U12-Forward

@JamesRisner I need an upvote so bad

@Steffan Good night!

Steffan

where do you get the idea that 4 ayes is 5 continuous days of getting upvotes on a certain post?

if that theory is true then 4 makes more sense still

James Risner

04:27

Wait, so 4ayes being 4 or 5 days of ups? 9000 being related to the comment thing right? Or you thinking the [discussion]?

@Steffan not sure, but I like the theory and glorf matches when he got his

Plus a LOT of people got 4ay today

yesterday it was 43

er 3

today I stopped counting at 15

Steffan

is it specific to date?

U12-Forward

Where do you see the stats?

James Risner

long time viewing the leaderboards

U12-Forward

Oh

James Risner

i'm not kidding that I've been up today 18 hours doing NOTHING but stats

on this.

and I got exactly 1 hat for my troubles so far

Steffan

04:29

lol you must get tired

that sounds exhausting

James Risner

been 30 mins since up vote

I'm being yelled at by my partner, but this is all I've done since friday 4pm. A total of 3 hours sleep.

Steffan

lmao

James Risner

(fri night + sat night sleep = 3)

I've eliminated a TON from SEDE scripts I wrote this morning after SEDE update

U12-Forward

@JamesRisner Wow very impressive

Steffan

you dont fall asleep in ur chair?

U12-Forward

04:31

You should get an award for that :)

James Risner

Stuff like this:
Answer a question with an already accepted answer, get upvotes
Answer +7 with no comments on Q or A
Answer in 30 min, +3 and accepted
Answer own question

why do it when someone else can and you see they get no hat you don't know about

going on second 24 pack of 12 oz caf

Steffan

lmao what

James Risner

25 * 12 = 300 oz of caffeine so far

I'm determined

U12-Forward

Whaaat?

James Risner

(since friday afternoon)

Steffan

04:34

how did you drink 20 pounds of coffee

James Risner

my normal is 5x 12 ounce a day, so this isn't much of an increase ~ 9 aday

Steffan

WHAT

how do you drink that much coffee

anyway im going now

James Risner

@U12-Forward Step 11:
Post two positively scored comments under a user's first post and the OP edi
ts the question after the comment - Done

@U12-Forward you still with me?

U12-Forward

@JamesRisner I'm back

What's my next step?

James Risner

04:49

ok 27 mins no 9000 I'll delete those now.

Give me a minute. If you got a second this gets badges on other profiles for me. Can you save these?
https://chat.stackexchange.com/transcript/message/62592430#62592430

Think you know two others we can find tonight?
Step 8: --- TO DO --- Need 4 people
Post a chat message that gets 3 stars. (Mariachi)

2

Ok, only two more things really:
Mariachi (chat message gets 3 stars)
Soapbox - Q w/[discussion] on meta that gets +2 votes and 2 answers

U12-Forward

05:42

Aha

James Risner

So I still not gotten 9000

so it's not the 12 comment up

Must been the "Comment on 11 other posts of mine"

If you be up for a bit I'll do that, and you edit them?

U12-Forward

@JamesRisner Uving this one would give me the four ayes on stackoverflow stackoverflow.com/questions/74819681/…

Hi @turivishal

James Risner

I, unfortunately, am too much of a rules follower to do it

U12-Forward

Ok

James Risner

so what is the deal with the meta? is emp confirmed now?

U12-Forward

05:53

@JamesRisner What is the trigger.for emperor?

James Risner

Oh I mixed up. you all still talking about 4ayes

What fix is this she talking about? chat.stackexchange.com/transcript/message/62599332#62599332

@U12 I'm going to hit you with 10 comments on Stackoverflow, can you edit them when I get done? If you have time tonight? ---- think that's the 9000 trigger "over 9"

U12-Forward

No

I think 9000 is for meta question tagged discussion with 9 score or.more

turivishal

@U12-Forward yup

U12-Forward

Thanks @turivishal

James Risner

06:20

@U12-Forward so you got it from the Show us your hat post that hit 10?

U12-Forward

06:30

No, from a stackoverflow post.

James Risner

06:45

Oh the out of bounds?

I've been thinking the tags for apple m1/m2/silicon are bad. Think I should write one for that?

U12-Forward

You could try yeah

James Risner

07:24

Starting to fall down. see you again in 4 hrs ;-)

U12-Forward

Bye!

U12-Forward

07:43

How does this guy have the Gregorio hat on stackoverflow

stackoverflow.com/users/445976/blastfurnace?tab=activity

@JamesRisner

James Risner

We don't know how to get it

Doesn't look like suggestions, edits, or otherwise.

So It's likely one of these "other people do it to you"

U12-Forward

ah

Marco Bonelli

If you need stuff to flag there are a lot of Not-An-Answer reported by Natty in SOBotics you can easily make 100 flags a day if you camp there all day :')

James Risner

Thanks for that, good tip. I dumped a batch here for whoever needs.

Eran

Thanks

James Risner

@eran you can try NAA or I'll get you another batch tomorrow

only try to thank you ones if the page has more than just thank yous

Eran

09:26

@JamesRisner thanks, but I already flagged enough to get unflagging.

For some reason I don't have Chatterbox on SO, yet. I was sure I qualified yesterday.

mousetail

@Eran Chatterbox tracks your chat parent user

change your parent user and send one message to get it on another site

Eran

@mousetail I don't understand. How do I do that?

mousetail

Go to yoor chat profile and there is a button to change your parent user

Eran

I think I just did. thanks!

So I need one more block of text

mousetail

09:42

Ok

Eran
