@Vickel I really think the trigger is to re-tag many questions tho.

i am making a try on Pizza Hat here: stackoverflow.com/questions/53964871/…

(Not asking you to vote)

On SO i mean, i earned the fresh ready-to-eat pizza on MSE already.

I think i am gonna earn It's A Me hat if the OP edits so i can delete

@U9-Forward it's a tricky question you choose and answered by one of the guru's of SO

@U9-Forward again the clean up thing: did you flag any comments as "not necessary" , which were deleted afterwards? and if so how many?

@TabAlleman I didn't remember one. @Riker said something about titles but I did not understand it.

@NogShine I did not edit titles

@TabAlleman nah we have a pretty good idea

it's for leaving 15 comments within a certain time period

at least the same tag but likely just overall

but don't like spam comments

@Riker I'm fighting for the trigger of clean-up-duty. Is there any relation to comments deleted by flags?

no

I did not do any comments for clean up duty

it is entirely edits

it's 100% not flagging

edits of titles only?

no, I did no title edits at all

I did tag edits

I believe the criteria is something like edit and have it be upvoted later

any upvote after tag edit?

I'm not certain re: what kind of edits work, but tag edits work for sure

I got it for title only.

and I don't think yours counts

ok then it's something like edit a post and have the post upvoted after your edit (your vote nonwithstanding)

I've done about 40 tag edits (removing the wrong one and adding the correct one), but it hasn't triggered the hat

did it get upvoted after? this hat takes a while to load

but maybe no upvotes after the edit

and which site

SO

I upvoted one of the questions in question, wait 30 min to an hour and we'll see then

@Riker thanks, I'll watch very carefully

not yet.. just kidding :)

Yes!!! earned It's A Me hat!!! up to 3rd rank from 4th rank!

21 hats i earned on SO!

I almost got pizza hat on SO from this stackoverflow.com/questions/53949739/…. I already got it on MSE

@Eran Like me, i got Pizza hat only on MSE on the knitting question :D

i got a waffles head, but i don't know for wat. maybe s/o can help me with it?

@Riker it didn't trigger the clean up duty hat. So maybe it needs more questions upvoted after (title) edit...

Logged in today and found I had gotten Eliza Doolots on two sites-- SO and Meta SE. I was just awarded a +250 bounty on SO, which made me hit the rep cap for the second time on SO since Dec 13. I have not been very active on Meta SE in the last few days (maybe a couple of upvotes, but that's it), but I did hit the rep cap twice on that site Dec 12 and Dec 13. So my working theory for Eliza Doolots is: hit the rep cap twice on two different SE sites.

This is my bid for the Freehand Circle: meta.stackexchange.com/questions/319846/… unfortunately too far down in the list to catch more votes?

@NinaScholz @jknappen I concur. I went to an old answer of mine where I knew the OP had not logged in in ages (so I wouldn't spam him) and then I added a bunch of comments to that answer and the question. Definitely more than 15 on the answer. Then I waited a while and eventually I got the waffles hat. Then I went back and deleted all the crap comments.

@jknappen I allready like your duck, how do you like mine? meta.stackexchange.com/a/320629/251777 amost there :)

@BrianRogers I did exactly the same: once on a QA selfanswered and once on a QA with a deleted user, got 2 waffles

@Vickel Great :-)

@jknappen I think I'll keep my duck for a while, even after winterbash :) the waffle I'll need to let go...

I did it!!! thanks, now the last big mystery I seem I cannot solve: the clean-up hat. I've deleted 20+ answers with NAA flags, I've delete 5 comments with "no longer needed" flag, I've edited title and content of 1 question, which was upvoted later by someone else. it never triggered... any news on that one?

@Vickel The clean-up hat has something to to with edits, probably tag edits. It deos not seem to matter whether the questions are old or new. There is probably some other ingredient in the hat that is unknown (receive an upvote after editing at least once?)

@Vickel @jknappen It's definitely not for deleting old comments as in past years-- I deleted tons of old comments and that did not do anything.

@BrianRogers @jknappen I've retagged or just removed a tag about 40 times

bur most likely noone ever went there to upvote the OP

Maybe the edits should be permanent (i.e., not rolled back or changed again for a certain time)?

@jknappen @BrianRogers no roll backs, one example: stackoverflow.com/questions/44516494/…;, the question had 3 UV when I edited it I think

Re: Eliza Doolots - I notice others have suggested it is for getting 2000 rep across multiple sites since WB started; that could also fit my scenario. I just added it up and I think I just crossed the 2000 point threshold with the bounty award. +1392 on SO; +870 on Meta SE = 2262. The bounty + accept would have just pushed it over the line.

@BrianRogers I think it is for hitting 5x max daily rep of 200

on one or more sites

@Vickel Except I only maxed 4 times.

@Vickel I just upvoted the question you linked; let's see if you get a hat

@BrianRogers did you check all sites, also meta.se?

I'll check...

@Vickel Yes, maxed twice on meta.se (dec 12 and 13) and twice on SO (dec 13 and today). There's no possibility that I maxed on any other sites-- I don't have enough activity anywhere else. I'm mostly a one-trick pony (SO). The Meta.SE thing was a fluke because I posted a popular knitting thing

I just checked on @U9-Forward profile, he has 4x max. cap, so maybe its not 5 but 4x

@Vickel Hey, did you just get a cleanup duty hat?

@BrianRogers : the clean-up hat has arrived, I think the trigger could be: retag (edit) a question which has already a positive answer and the question gets another UV. What we tried yesterday with @Riker didn't seem to work, as the question had 0 votes

@Vickel OK, let's test your theory. Here is a question that has one upvote and an accepted answer with two upvotes: stackoverflow.com/q/48075444/10263 . I just added the [datacontractjsonserializer] tag to it. I think it is a reasonable question, care to upvote it?

@BrianRogers let's see, I'd add also the tag json.net

@Vickel Sure enough, just got the cleanup duty hat!

so that's the trigger, what now? should we edit the meta.stackexchange.com/questions/319838/… page?

@BrianRogers or try one more time 1st? meta.stackexchange.com/questions/320008/… but my edit is in queue to be peer-reviewed

@Vickel It might be prudent to re-confirm once more. Let me know if your edit gets approved and I'll upvote the question

@BrianRogers OK

@BrianRogers if it's like on SO, just an tag edit most likely won't be considered a useful edit, I think, but as I added the tag "fun" and it's WB, maybe... :)

:-)

@Vickel Only because it's WB, okay? ;)

@Tinkeringbell for sure!!!

@BrianRogers let's test it again

@Vickel OK, just upvoted the question

@Tinkeringbell Thanks :-)

@BrianRogers: it has not triggered yet, let's wait a bit more, but: On Meta.se I added a tag ("no clean up") while on SO I removed (clean-up") a tag

@Vickel, On the question I edited, I merely added a tag but did not remove any. I wonder if the age of the question has anything to do with it? The ones you and I retagged that we got hats for were pretty old. But this last one was just asked on Dec 13.

@BrianRogers hmmmmm...

@BrianRogers and are you sure you did it only once?

@Vickel The retag? Yes, that is the only question I retagged today.

as i tried one question yesterday with @Riker and it didn't trigger, maybe you need to do it twice?

@Vickel You mean retag the same question twice? The one I did I only retagged once.

@Vickel I need to run-- this has been fun puzzling this out. I'll check back later and see if anyone else has been able to have success with your theory. I think you are close!

@BrianRogers ok, see you later... nice puzzling with you, great
