I decided to just be mostly happy with whatever hat tumbles in my direction. I'm not active on the sites with high attendance, so some hats are just out of my reach.
(I might have used the opportunity to delete a few obsolete comments, though.)
@Panda Could be. I got one at sustainability.se after writing my first answer there (currently it is +4; might have been +3 when I got the hat)

@Stephie well, i try to do most of that all year round, anyway (apart from the questions). i never seem to get anywhere near the full set of hats, though. some of the criteria for awarding the hats seems very artificial
Regarding "Hero Of Time": ask a question when it is 7:00 pm in any time zone, does anybody know how precisely the time has to match? Does it have to be down to the second, or is asking the question within a minute of the hour OK?
