@Powerlord Um, no, you're wearing yoda.

@SeanGallagher So now that it is over, what was The Secret Of Batman?

Sean Gallagher

Powerlord

@John I'm looking at hatdash.com/hall-of-fame right now.

Sean Gallagher

ok so here is the story

RedriderX

Farewell fair hats. We hardly knew ye.

John

12:02 AM

@Powerlord So was I. Refreshing changed it.

Powerlord

"We decided to add secret hats that you couldn't earn just to troll you."

Ullallulloo

Secret hat!

Less pop has it!

Master Mind
Average answer score of at least 5 and at least 5 answers

John

Wait @RavenDreamer got another hat in the last 5 minutes putting him back on top?!

Powerlord

@Ullallulloo Which explains why no one has it.

John

@Powerlord @LessPopMoreFizz does.

LessPop_MoreFizz

12:04 AM

@Ullallulloo ...

...

John

@LessPopMoreFizz And you didn't tell us this because...?

RedriderX

Wow, I've already forgotten how many hats I had.

LessPop_MoreFizz

@John It never popped!

That wasn't there 5 minutes ago.

John

@LessPop_MoreFizz Sure....

LessPop_MoreFizz

Seriously, that showed up after hat dash.

John

12:05 AM

That must've been the hat Raven just got also.

Powerlord

@John So does @RavenDreamer... which is the 31st hat he has.

Sean Gallagher

anyone have a good pair of earbuds (in-ear) they want to recommend?

RedriderX

Hmm, can you search hatdash?

Powerlord

And... what's the Batman hat?

John

Awwww. FAE got the lightbulb hat. I'm no longer the only person to earn exactly 18 hats. :(

Arda Xi

RedriderX

@ArdaXi Well there you go.

LessPop_MoreFizz

12:06 AM

No fair for a hat to pop after hat dash ended!

No fair at all!

RedriderX

Can't get much better than that!

Powerlord

Well, at least I was two ahead of LessPop, so him getting one more hat didn't bring him up to tie me

RedriderX

Hooray! My hat eulogy got starred!

Nick T

Nobody uses earbuds?

LessPop_MoreFizz

@NickT Didn't see the question! What's your budget, do you want open or closed?

John

12:08 AM

@NickT I like this pair I have in my pocket, but I don't know what to tell you about them.

LessPop_MoreFizz

(i.e. how much do you care about isolation)

Nick T

in-ear, $20-ish

RedriderX

@LessPop_MoreFizz Cone Of Silence

Arda Xi

@NickT The ones I linked are $25-ish

Ullallulloo

@Powerlord Going through the top few hundred, it seems no one got it. I'm guessing it was like lightbulb for questions?

LessPop_MoreFizz

12:10 AM

@NickT Honestly, at that price range, it's more about comfort than sound. I'm not really comfortable reccommending anything in particular. Sorry!

Tristan

Does anyone have the link for the freeware version of Cave Story?

Nick T

What pair do you use

Ullallulloo

Yes, I looked through every single person. No one got the batman hat.

RedriderX

@Tristan Here you go.

Ullallulloo

@SeanGallagher Explain, please.

Tristan

12:11 AM

@RedriderX Thanks!

Sean Gallagher

lightbulb : it was awarded for having an average answer score of 5+

@Tristan It's even got the TI calculator port!

John

@SeanGallagher For all time or does it just count the answers during HD?

Ullallulloo

@John All other hats were jsut for the hatdash period

John

@Ullallulloo I know, but with that one...

RedriderX

We all now wait for the day the hats will again be loosed upon us all...

@RedriderX That seems wholly unnecessary.

@John ok the batman hat became this thing

LessPop_MoreFizz

@RedriderX Welp. Looks like Hat Dash was a success. :)

@Tristan No way! However else would anyone have such high quality software with which to ignore algebra?!

@SeanGallagher Something flag related?

Sean Gallagher

but much like the dark knight it became a thing of urban legend

LessPop_MoreFizz

Because that was my suspicion.

Sean Gallagher

would a mighty bat signal appear literally on the site? it was rumored, but nay...

Powerlord

12:17 AM

@SeanGallagher It doesn't help that you had a Batman hat when it's been less than two months since a new Batman game came out.

John

@SeanGallagher checks site again

Sean Gallagher

would it be for simply doing hatdash stuff in the batman arkahm asylum tag?

@Powerlord We've known for a while it wasn't for the game.

Sean Gallagher

12:17 AM

SUPPOSED to be

but

game came out a while aback

and then some clever users started discovering a sprite png

Ullallulloo

@SeanGallagher Arkham City was newer

Sean Gallagher

and then the legend grew

where was batman!

would he save us!?!

John

is on the edge of his seat

Sean Gallagher

well

batman MAY just show up at your house

in the flesh

for real

RedriderX

@LessPop_MoreFizz And know this, you young ones who did not see the thing that was Hat Dash, be fore-warned. It will come again.

Sean Gallagher

12:20 AM

the batman hat may be the ultimate hat...

or is it...

are there more secrets?

RedriderX

How was that for a HatDash eulogy?

LessPop_MoreFizz

Hat-dash-2-electric-boogaloo is too long for the tag limit. :(

Sean Gallagher

mwahwahahah

@LessPopMoreFizz thats pretty funny

ok so the batman hat was originally for arkham

Ullallulloo

@SeanGallagher So, you guys just dropped it?

Sean Gallagher

it didn't get implemented in time

RedriderX

12:21 AM

Well, got to go. Be seeing ya all.

Sean Gallagher

we didn't want to but we have a lot of sites and wanted to make all the other things about hatdash work

but the batman hat is REAL

Ullallulloo

@SeanGallagher Aw, I met the requirements. :P

Sean Gallagher

like really real

we never defined requirements

if we did it would have been awarded

@balpha @emmet and @davidFullerton worked around the clock on hatdash and it was really cool seeing this happen for you

Stack Exchange Gaming Blog: Hat Dash 2011 Conclusion: The Unhattening

David Fullerton on January 07, 2012

Hat Dash 2011 is officially over! Over 475 users participated, including 93 Zombies (people who last posted over 30 days ago) and 102 Newbies (first-time posters). 1152 questions were asked, 2259 answers posted, and 2042 hats were awarded in three short weeks!

Sad to see your hats go? We’ve added a new section to HatDash.com to see your full Hat Rack. You can find it by taking your Gaming user page URL (like ‘gaming.stackexchange.com/users/3/david-fullerton’) and replacing the “gaming.stackexchange.com” part with “hatdash.com” (like ‘hatdash.com/users/3/david-fullerton’).

@John Unicorn Hug is for 10 chat messages with a star

@agent86 No, I'm pointing out what we call "The Truth" and, IMO, you're exactly the kind of person this site doesn't need. You have no idea if the answers you're giving are right or not, because you have no experience with half or more of the games for the questions you're answering.

@agent86 Why? I've seen you give outright wrong answers before, because that's what Google told you.

LessPop_MoreFizz

@Wipqozn I don't care about the cost, but having a 30 second cooldown on pushing the Buy Affection button doesn't really throttle me in any meaningful way. It's just stupid.

LessPop_MoreFizz

@Wipqozn Oh, the dude giving it a hug looks like a santa hat in the tiny chat thumbnail.

Wipqozn

@LessPop_MoreFizz Yeah, I agree. HAving a delay would be a good idea... but not if it is 30 seconds. That's just stupid, in order for the delay to matter at all it would need to be something like an hour or 24 hours.

LessPop_MoreFizz

1:36 AM

@Wipqozn Eh, it wouldn't be a good idea just because of the way the mechanics work. But the point is a 30 second delay does nothing but be annoying.

Nick T

Is HP actually #1 over Dell?

Is that just consumer or server, or both?

Wipqozn

@LessPop_MoreFizz I meant that a delay only makes sense if it was intended to slow down the rate at which you can buy a companions love.

30 seconds obviously doesn't do that, so it's just fucking stupid.

@AshleyNunn I figured, based on your experience, it was a guaranteed way to get a Tanooki. lol

user15026

@Tristan lol, you're so nice ;)

Tristan

I do what I can.

Anyone played Poker Night at the Inventory?

Raven Dreamer

@Tristan I haven't, no.

Wipqozn

Oh, ahah, I meant to ping @RonanForman. I just didn't pay attention to the name it would seem...

sorry to get your hopes up!

Tristan

@AshleyNunn k Just wondering.

Raven Dreamer

I find it hillarious that I wound up tying @agent86 due to the fact that my average answer score was higher than his.

Q: MW3 witch characters are allowd to use in your name?

Hello when I changed my name on steam I noticed that some characters are not supported and will display in game but are allowed to have as a name in steam. So my questions is witch characters are you allowed to use in your name ingame in mw3?

steam mw3

@Lazers Witches in modern warfare 3‽

Tristan

2:34 AM

@RavenDreamer They're replacing zombies in DLC.

Raven Dreamer

Also, apparently I won a replica Darth Vader Mask.

Tristan

I saw that. If you don't want it, I'll take it. =P

Raven Dreamer

What a random answer to win with.

I guess a lot of folks are playing Jedi Knights.

David Fullerton

@Wipqozn well yes...I strongly suspect that no Hat Dash will ever be as good as your first one...

Tristan

@RavenDreamer What are the classes, anyway?

Raven Dreamer

2:38 AM

@DavidFullerton Hai, David!

David Fullerton

Hai! Congrats on the prize!

Raven Dreamer

@Tristan Lightsaber user, Force "mage", Guy with a gun, Guy with a gun who hides behind a wall.

David Fullerton

SWTOR has a stealth healer with knives and a gun...nuf said

so far my favorite healer since the long lost days of my Friar in Dark Age of Camelot

Raven Dreamer

@DavidFullerton Is there a listing accessible anywhere of who won which hats? I want to know who all got the User-of-the-Day

user15026

@DavidFullerton That does sound pretty ridiculously awesome.

Tristan

2:40 AM

@RavenDreamer @DavidFullerton Thanks... lol I've been purposely avoiding websites with much info on TOR... I don't want to spoil it for myself.

David Fullerton

@RavenDreamer there's no listing by hat...I can look it up in the database

Raven Dreamer

@Tristan That reminds me... I'm going to go offer a bounty one of my SWTOR questions...

David Fullerton

I was a bit surprised...I think 8 or 9 different people got the crown

Q: Are the classes in TOR *really* mirrored across factions?

I know that the intent in The Old Republic was that the factions would be balanced by having the same classes available to each faction, albeit with different names and animations. But after playing the game for a while, I'm not sure I believe this anymore. One example: While it's true that th...

250 bounty up for grabs!

Tristan

@RavenDreamer The fact that I will never earn a bounty that big makes me sad. lol

Raven Dreamer

2:44 AM

@DavidFullerton Trying to get that hat, I got about 4 or 5 other hats.

@Tristan Never say never!

user15026

@Tristan You never know - I never thought I would get a bounty, but one good answer about how to change Miis got me a pretty decent one.

Tristan

@RavenDreamer I get the feeling that guys smart-ass comment just cost him a 250 rep bounty.

Raven Dreamer

@Tristan Also, from what I've read, he's also wrong.

user15026

@Tristan That and if he can't back up the info, its kinda meaningless. I could herpderp some numbers about things if I wanted. But its being able to prove it that matters.

Tristan

They say 38% of all statistics are made up on the spot...

Raven Dreamer

2:48 AM

I've read that the Trooper has fractional ammo costs; i.e., the class has the same 0-100 scale as bounty hunters, the only difference is that it's displayed different.

Marco Ceppi

@Wipqozn It was earlier today

You missed it :)

Tristan

Why do I only have good luck in vidya games, and not real life? =(

Raven Dreamer

@Tristan Because you play more video games (and hence, have more opportunities to have good luck) than you do things in real life.

Tristan

@RavenDreamer That could be it.

Raven Dreamer

I'm happy this question is on google's front page for "swtor augments"

Q: What are augments?

I told my minion Khem Val to synth me some pants, and three minutes later, I am notified that he has been "extremely successful", and has synth'd me a pair of "exceptional" pants. The item now has an "augment" slot, and it looks to be modifiable in the same way that orange items are... but I don...

Q: I dismissed Jenassa, now I can't find her. I want my 500 gold back!

I paid Jenassa 500 gold and hired her as a companion. This was before I became the thane of Dragonsreach. I was really happy with Jenassa and only dismissed her because I wanted to see if Lydia was any good as a companion. The problem is that before leaving she said "You can find me at the taver...

@Tristan #1 on mine. But I think that's because I've visited it.
