[QUOTE=scotty-furs;20210308]He stopped after the Heavy update it seems.[/QUOTE] He had to be in game when Bill's hat was added, because he has it in backpack not overlapping.
[B]The crafting/drop system hates me.[/B] My first hat drop (after over 200 hours of idling) was the glengarry bonnet earlier this week. I had slowly been working my way up to 3 refined metals, and I finally got there about an hour ago. I entered my favorite server and decided I would craft my awesome hat in front of my friends. I put all of the metals in the crafting square and hit "craft." I was promptly given another glengarry bonnet. [B]FFFFFFUUUUUUUU-[/B] :argh: I said "fuck this shit" and crafted my two glengarry bonnets together to get the sniper's trophy belt. Fuck the random system.
My story ; 1st hat : Tyrant's helm 2nd hat : Master's yellow belt Crafted both for the Stainless pot 3rd hat : Stainless pot Found a batter's helmet today, Since I don't like either, Crafted them together to get My tyrant's helmet back :argh:
[QUOTE=dzonint;20206803]Can't belive this shit,I'm idling 24/7 and getting shit,almost nothing,while some guys find 3 hats in one week,while I have in these 2 weeks 1 week of idling. I just saw some guy who wanted to craft 3 refined metal,and in that moment he found Brigade Helm,and got Stainless pot from craft. Life sucks :frown:. [editline]10:44AM[/editline] Team Fortress 2 162.8 hrs / 1070.8 hrs [editline]10:45AM[/editline] That is 6 days and 18 hours.[/QUOTE] I know how you feel, this year is the only year I've gotten any sort of hats. After the classless update came out, Steam Cloud farted and my friends got upwards of 15 hats, while I had a mere trophy belt (which got taken away). Most of idling, in my opinion, is just being around when the dice rolls - which means always being in a server. It doesn't matter how long you idle, it's just that if you know when the dice is gonna roll, you better be in a server.

I'll let my fellow dirty idlers in on a few secrets: 1. Join an idle server with friendly fire. 2. Unequip everything. EVERYTHING. Especially hats. Pretend it's 2007. 3. Enter +attack in console. 4. ??? 5. PROFIT!!! Items from a night on a normal idle server: 2 Items from the next night doing what I said: [I]11[/I] Been getting tons ever since.
1 More hat :D prussian pickelhaube. And this, First image. Can you find the metals? [IMG]http://filesmelt.com/dl/gadgadgadgdag.jpg[/IMG] And the second. This must be fake right?

I've gotten a drop every 25 minutes. If I get a hat at the 4 hour mark :D

One more Refined (?) metal until I get my Pyro hat. :3:
[QUOTE=Xyrec;20216740]Seriously it works? If so, link me the IP to your server! :D Never mind, can't join you, apparently I'm banned from steambans.com?[/QUOTE] Just put Achievement_idle in the map name and look at the tags. Roughly 7 of them near Florida.
Trying this "trick" now in an idle server. If it works you are god. Nearly got my third refined for another hat.
I've been trying this "trick" in an idle server for nearly an hour, and so far, I have got zilch.
2 more refined until I get my Medic hat. :chef:
[QUOTE=Omolong;20218077]I've been trying this "trick" in an idle server for nearly an hour, and so far, I have got zilch.[/QUOTE] I just got a natascha which was the first 25 minutes I think. Will see if it carries on.
I finally got an item! It was the Chargin' Goddamn Targe.
Got an axtinguisher too. Think this might be legit, as odd as it seems. I've had very little success with idling lately before trying this.
Yeah, I've idled with everything unequipped for ages... And in the last week or so I noticed the rate being higher in FF servers. Glad it works for you guys too! :smile: Seems points maybe [I]do[/I] matter after all... :iiam:
Sudden I haven't gotten shit. Just 1 drop tonight.
All I got was weapons.
I got a hat :D with the trick and about 8 items [img]http://www.tf2items.com/hats/medic/medic_mirror_sized.png[/img]
I just got another camera beard! What the eff?
[QUOTE=Xyrec;20228078]I just got another camera beard! What the eff?[/QUOTE] They have the same rate as weapons, I got 3 in 2 nights
Wow, not even 1 drop tonight. :geno:
I got a Mining Light :( I already have a Texas Ten Gallon so I'll probably craft it or wait for trading.
