Change the ending to what site you want.

Like winterbash2016.stackexchange.com/leaderboard/…

Ankit Sharma

I mean for Just Here for the Hat

winterbash2016.stackexchange.com/leaderboard/…

> 99 users from this site have earned a total of 140 hats!

David

@AnkitSharma O, well you could count how many different hats are on that list.

Mithrandir

Oh. IDK

I have 13 different hats on Puzzling and still the entire site doesn't have 20 distinct hats :(

Glorfindel

10

Q: I got a secret hat. Can I find out what for?

I've just got a secret hat. Will it ever be disclosed to me why? Is it a guessing game to the very end (and beyond)?

David

for blender we are near 16

Ankit Sharma

2:02 PM

@David are you counting manually

David

@AnkitSharma yep.

Mithrandir

Fiery is 5 +3 answers on one site, right?

David

yes

Mithrandir

...So 4 more.

Ankit Sharma

@Mithrandir I hAve 0 :D

TAsk

2:12 PM

@Panda It took very long.. Still didn't have that hat.. :(

Panda

@TAsk Wait, you only have 10 hats on SO

You got 925 on Software Engineering

veryRandomMe

yeah, even though it doesn't say, it has to be on one site only that you get the eleven hats

Balarka Sen

The speculation on Mild Manner give in the google doc (last point) can't possibly work, because I had a situation like that earlier this morning

Maroun Maroun

Am I the only one that instead of working, is looking for secret hats? :/

veryRandomMe

no . . .

it's sad

Balarka Sen

2:15 PM

here

DavidPostill

no, but then I'm unemployed :/

veryRandomMe

:/

Maroun Maroun

There should be a secret hat for people who are not working and are looking for secret hat. The recursive-hat.

veryRandomMe

lol

Balarka Sen

Is there not a Eureka hat, for guessing a hat correctly this year?

veryRandomMe

2:17 PM

"my code is compiling"

@BalarkaSen Nope

Boo

Lol

Any guesses about the 6 hat?

Panda

Yea ^

veryRandomMe

2:21 PM

My guess is that it has nothing to do witht he actual numbers

TypoCubeᵀᴹ

I just got it and maybe: I had 10-11 reviews on First Posts

Panda

@TypoCubeᵀᴹ That's all?

TypoCubeᵀᴹ

and some other reviews of other types.

About 15-18 today

Panda

6 of each?

Andrew Li

@TypoCubeᵀᴹ no. I did none yesterday and I got it

David

2:22 PM

@BalarkaSen nope, gone is that hat

TypoCubeᵀᴹ

No, 15-18 in total today

Panda

Wow, I've aiming to get it today

Andrew Li

6 isn't with reviews

Nothing is is my guess

TAsk

@Panda Okk...

Right

TypoCubeᵀᴹ

@AndrewLi comments? I guess comments may have to do with the other sesame hat

Stewartside

2:28 PM

djsmiley2k

veryRandomMe

Stewartside

2:34 PM

@MarounMaroun well I was going for the gold badge on flagging. Annoyed though since I flagged this stackoverflow.com/questions/9546635/… It was declined but deleted anyway...

veryRandomMe

I hate it when that happens.

Stewartside

like 1 minute apart... blah

stackoverflow.com/questions/18496011/… same for that one... :(

was closing in on 500 flags

veryRandomMe

You have 2 weeks

Emily M

whats the easiest way to get a gold badge

Stewartside

yeah true. still ill probably forget all about doing it in a day haha

veryRandomMe

2:37 PM

@EmilyM If you haven't done it yet, by voting a ton

Emily M

dont you have a limit of votes per day

Stewartside

yeah you do

either that or write an exceptionally good post

Emily M

ive written good posts before and they get ignored mostly

like this one for instance

veryRandomMe

30-40 depending how you use them

you can get it in a few days if you are reasonably close

Emily M

Q: Does "Running Ragged" hat count on the Stack Overflow leaderboard?

I see here that there is a winter bash leaderboard per site, and when one gets a hat the description says to which site that hat belongs: So is the "Running Ragged" hat never going to be awarded to Stack Overflow? Or as it is being awarded to all sites because of being a hat that requires coll...

Emily M

alecxe

2:44 PM

@EmilyM I was just browsing the main page and sometimes upvoting and editing questions

David

@EmilyM post a question or answer that gets 100 UVs.

alecxe

nothing special..

Stewartside

@David stackoverflow.com/questions/9546635/… that one I flagged as spam

David

@Stewartside I'm not a SO mod so I cant see all that stuff.

veryRandomMe

@David lel, ez

David

2:46 PM

@veryRandomMe no really. that is how I got my first gold hat...

Stewartside

@David yeah understandable, and Im pretty sure they cant undo bans as well so it doesnt really matter

veryRandomMe

blah blah blah

Bhargav Rao

Guys if you want the Gold hat for flagging visit chat.stackoverflow.com/rooms/info/111347/sobotics and ping some room owner there.

alecxe

@EmilyM ah well, I've deleted a comment and answered a question too, but I'm not sure this is relevant..difficult to say, the hat delay does not help

veryRandomMe

@David even you haven't gotten it on Blender.se, so be quiet

Bhargav Rao

2:47 PM

chat.stackoverflow.com/rooms/info/111347/sobotics

Emily M

@BhargavRao how/why?

David

@veryRandomMe yes I did!

first day

veryRandomMe

that must have been an answer

David

I have 2 gold hats

Bhargav Rao

@EmilyM If you want the Gold Badge for flagging on Stack Overflow.

Emily M

2:47 PM

how does pinging someone give me flags?

i dont understand

veryRandomMe

@David And neither are from a post with 100+ score

on Blender.se

David

@veryRandomMe yes it is.

meta.stackexchange.com/help/badges/22/…

veryRandomMe

It isn't

Bhargav Rao

@EmilyM Nope, There are bots that show you possible bad answers that are flag worthy.

David

look at the link!

veryRandomMe

2:48 PM

That's meta

Emily M

@BhargavRao sweet

veryRandomMe

Not Blender.se

David

Agr, are we arguing about something that we both know?

Bhargav Rao

Also, I developed that bot. But I'm on a holiday, Else I'd have helped you with it.

veryRandomMe

Only one (1) question with 100+ score and only three (3) answers with 100+ score on Blender.se

blender.stackexchange.com/help/…

David

2:50 PM

grr. yes we know getting 100 votes on BSE is not going to happen.

veryRandomMe

That is what I have been talking about the entire time . . .

David

well that is not what I have been talking about the entire time. and that was the problem.

veryRandomMe

yup

David

Let's just get back to the hats.

veryRandomMe

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

David

2:51 PM

veryRandomMe

Balarka Sen

Mithrandir

ALso, isn't it Snaphat?

Not Snapchat?

Or am I wrong?

Yup, Snaphat.

jokerdino

Snaphat indeed.

Balarka Sen

huh, makes sense

David

2:55 PM

@Mithrandir shaphat indeed.

Balarka Sen

excellent, hat arrived

RamenChef

Somebody reopen this question. It shouldn't have been closed because it wasn't intended to be subjective and can be answered objectively.

DavidPostill

Just got Blue in the Face on SU. No idea why.

RamenChef

And on the topic of this chatroom, it also gets both of us a hat.

David

@DavidPostill any comments?

DavidPostill

3:00 PM

@David Yes. Last thing I was doing was working through SU review queues, leaving comments as appropriate.

veryRandomMe

hmm

DavidPostill

@RamenChef Done.

David

@DavidPostill interesting, it does seam to have something to do with comments.

veryRandomMe

@DavidPostill The most interesting thing to me is the timeframe

That's way more than 10 minutes ago

David

then maybe one of your comments just got UVed.

DavidPostill

3:03 PM

@veryRandomMe Yeah, was afk. I don't know what time the hat was awarded.

veryRandomMe

ah

Saiid

I have a very important question

veryRandomMe

what?

ps what is what

Saiid

How does a user with one rep have 6 hats?

veryRandomMe

um

are they all on that site

Saiid

3:12 PM

no

one of they hats, they have it on 34 sites

and another they have on 23

veryRandomMe

the voting one is probably on just about every site they use by now

like vader and the solstice ones

Saiid

no

abominable on 23 sites

veryRandomMe

what

must flag a lot

Saiid

wait no I miscounted

more than 23

veryRandomMe

Saiid

3:17 PM

but you know, it makes sense.

veryRandomMe

oh come on

Saiid

xD

veryRandomMe

Why isn't Community wearing any hats?

Saiid

idk

veryRandomMe

it's sad

also in other news, that's a lot of the same hat

deerstalker after deerstalker

which of us is going to switch?

Saiid

3:20 PM

lol

Loong

@veryRandomMe Ask a site mod to change that.

Saiid

@veryRandomMe what hats do you have?

veryRandomMe

a few

This is all atm

Saiid

hmm

DavidPostill

Flagging spam closes/deletes a question. Why don't I have lots of "Abominable" hats? :/

Saiid

3:23 PM

@DavidPostill you just don't. it technically should award them to you

veryRandomMe

The real question is why do you have the blue hat

Saiid

@veryRandomMe I think your 'where in the world' hat looks cool

@veryRandomMe +1

veryRandomMe

@Saiid yeah but literally everyone has that

Saiid

I don't

veryRandomMe

vote on anything

just use the site

DavidPostill

3:26 PM

@Saiid :34236189 meta.stackexchange.com/questions/288271/… says "participate in successfully closing or deleting a question (note: flagging counts, if you don't have VTC/VTD privileges)"

Saiid

@DavidPostill "it technically should award them to you"

veryRandomMe

Bluefeet added an exception just for you

You should feel special

Saiid

^^

@veryRandomMe It won't work, it's the 20th here

veryRandomMe

It is here as well :)

mbomb007

^

I've already got it, and it's the 20th for me.

veryRandomMe

3:29 PM

As soon as it is the 21st anywhere in the world it starts, and continues until it is no longer the 21st anywhere else

Q: How can I check why (and what I did) for win a secret hat?

I have recently win the Where in the World? hat in Stack Overflow En Español, but, I don't know what I did for win this hat. When I check the hats that I win so far, I can't check why I win it: I consider that when any user wins a secret hat, the secret would be available for the user. Wit...
