[QUOTE=killz2much;26913996]I'm not getting ANY fucking hats from these drops. I'm not surprised.[/QUOTE] Of all the crates I unboxed and all the drops I got since the festive crates arrived I got one hat (from a crate), multiple Backscratchers, Jags, Candy Canes and Warrior's Spirits and tonnes of old weapons.
I got Fists of Steel, dominated someone with it and traded it to Le Party Phantom with him.
[QUOTE=Murdoco;26895355]at least I get to open one crate now :unsmith:[/QUOTE] And you get a dupe item. Watch the guy next to you open a crate and get an unusual.
Does this mean we get more or faster drops? I don't know how the drop system works. Oh well.
[QUOTE=The Ultimate;26914005]im going to laugh when valve makes the key expire.[/QUOTE] festive keys will turn into normal keys
[QUOTE=Keychain;26915643]festive keys will turn into normal keys[/QUOTE] Where did you hear this?
[QUOTE=killz2much;26915708]Where did you hear this?[/QUOTE] Pure inference, but it makes sense. But more than likely Valve will take the lazy route and disable them until next year, just like with the bags.
does this double drop rate thingy mean we get: more chance of getting an item or more items to actually get (say the limit is 20 it is now 40) i dont understand
[QUOTE=beasty;26915747]does this double drop rate thingy mean we get: more chance of getting an item or more items to actually get (say the limit is 20 it is now 40) i dont understand[/QUOTE] The limit is approximately 11 hours which you can earn items, its not a set amount of items. However, items will drop faster during the time now.
cheers

Well, this is a pleasant surprise. :unsmith:
[QUOTE=EvilShadow777;26915819]The limit is approximately 11 hours which you can earn items, its not a set amount of items. However, items will drop faster during the time now.[/QUOTE] I asked the same question but you answered his instead :smith:
First item found since this started: Handyman's Handle. Wicked, I haven't had a hat drop in months!
[QUOTE=FunkyDisko77;26916469]First item found since this started: Handyman's Handle. Wicked, I haven't had a hat drop in months![/QUOTE] I've never had one! :saddowns:
[QUOTE=Eeshton;26916504]I've never had one! :saddowns:[/QUOTE] Didn't get my first until after like 300 hours play time. Drops for hats are 200-400 hours apart on average.

I'm just gonna idle all night, awwwwwww yeah. Btw, did anyone notice how Valve gave us all a "stocking stuffer", but not a "christmas gift"? There's a chance we may get more free stuff.
TF2 Wont load for me :saddowns:. I was gonna idle the shit out of TF2.

They did call their update "Australian [i]Christmas[/i]".
[QUOTE=Mad Chatter;26917796]Stocking Stuffer doesn't have a religious connotation.[/QUOTE] Alright, fine. We didn't get a "holiday gift".
[QUOTE=Mad Chatter;26917796]Stocking Stuffer doesn't have a religious connotation.[/QUOTE]Technically speaking, since the concept is more-or-less Saint Nicholas putting stuff in socks you hung up to dry...
How do I fix my TF2? I HAVE to idle NOW!
Can't people update their servers? It's pissing me off when I'm trying to idle with source tools and then it breaks when I can't connect because the server hasn't been updated.
Is it me or is idling highly encouraged and acceptable now among the community due to the update? I idle too, but only if I'm using the computer while I'm doing it. I'm going to idle like crazy though considering that in a couple of days I'll be gone, and I wont be able to play TF2 until I get back early next year.
[QUOTE=Generic User;26917854]Can't people update their servers? It's pissing me off when I'm trying to idle with source tools and then it breaks when I can't connect because the server hasn't been updated.[/QUOTE] As a part-time dedicated server owner, I can tell you from experience that updating a server is not as quick and easy as updating TF2. It takes a while.
This has been the greatest TF2 Drop-mas so far :unsmith: [img]http://filesmelt.com/dl/Items.png[/img]
[QUOTE=killz2much;26917592]Good lord man 1,379 hours since March 09?[/QUOTE] I clocked at least 100 hours before that though!
Thank you, old man Valve. Thank you. *turns into ghost and flies away*
