Any updates on Clean-Up Duty?

Has nobody found anything?

Pieter Geerkens

@David: Will do - if I remember!

It's a (recursive) secret

oh, a new secret hat

Ethan K

What is it?

Glorfindel has it across a few sites. meta.stackexchange.com/users/295232/glorfindel#winter-bash

Q: What is a "new contributor" for Winter Bash purposes?

What is the combination of rep and timeline used to determine "new contributor" status? Also, for sites with scaled-down rep requirements for badges, are those rep rep requirements scaled down the same way? I'm interested in acquiring this hat, and wondering what sites I am eligible to try for ...

David

the cake hat.

Ethan K

I will add the hat to the 2018 hat post.

Oh, someone already did it.

Not another!!!

I thought that Clean-Up Duty was it, but no.

Of course another had to come along.

11:31 PM

no way! you still have the special "vote on the day" hats.

Ethan K

Any idea's how he got it?

@David Good point.

Do you think that is what this one is?

David

no.

WELZ

The hat was taken from @Catija post here

Though I don't think they used here trigger suggestion;

> Earn 200 reputation on each of your top six sites during Winter Bash.

David

@WELZ is Glorfindel the only one with it?

WELZ

Otherwise he'd have it on 6 sites (unless it's a caching issue) Chess is a smaller site, but idk about SO

alecxe

11:33 PM

@David nope

WELZ

@David I'm not sure, but all of them are his "top 6 sites so far"

Ethan K

So....

alecxe

Monica Cellio, Pittsburgh PA

99.6k 34 253 500

discussion feature-request support moderator-tools design bug flags

Ethan K

That could just be the trigger.

WELZ

Also in the top 6

WELZ

jeez, they weren't gonna make this easy

alecxe

multiple sites and, I guess, reputation points?

WELZ

Maybe it just means earn 200 rep on any 6 sites...

Alexander O'Mara

They got the hat on Puzzling, but never got 200 points: puzzling.stackexchange.com/users/11110/…

WELZ

@AlexanderO'Mara doesn't need to be in one day

I think it might be "Earn 200 reputation on each of your top six sites during Winter Bash."

I seems unfair, as I am on 2 sites and only am active on one.

WELZ

@EthanK one of them got it on a non top 6 site, it could just be on 6 sites period.

Ethan K

But it still might be.

alecxe

it's likely 200, yeah, cause I have 150ish on a few sites this WB and no hat

Ethan K

Okay, so "Earn 200 reputation on six sites during Winter Bash."

WELZ

11:37 PM

Possible, not confirmed though,

Ethan K

Now, someone has to test it. :)

This will be hard for them.

WELZ

o.O

Ethan K

I can't test it. I only am on two sites.

alecxe

I guess I can confirm it soon if it's 200 or not

wonder if the site association bonus counts here or not

David

if it really is six sites that is another I will not be getting.

Ethan K

11:40 PM

Are you that close to getting it?!?

@David lol

David

I'm skeptical though. if it was juwst 200 rep on 6 sites would we not of seen that already? and why now two people get it at the same time? Would be very strange if they both just happened to get 200 on six sites at the same time.

I'm thinking more of a time/ day biased thing.

but don't know.

Pieter Geerkens

Can one get "It's a Me" on one's own post?

David

@PieterGeerkens I do not think so.

WELZ

@David 200 rep is a lot to get on six different sites.

David

indeed

I struggle with the 150 on three.
