:No. This is already used on the [[Black Box]] page. The wiki just seems vain if it uses the same quotes over and over again.--[[User:Focusknock|Focusknock]] 08:41, 8 October 2010 (UTC)
 
  
:{{c|No}} I agree with Focusknock. That quote is already being used for the Black Box, and frankly it is better suited to that page. Also, "Hippo-crates" never gets old! -- [[User:Alex2539|Alex2539]] 08:46, 8 October 2010 (UTC)

== How is it obtained? ==
 
Is it found through drops?--[[User:Jordan|Jordan]] 10:59, 1 October 2010 (UTC)
 
:Yes I just got one dropped. Now I just need a key... [[User:Dzjudz|Dzjudz]] 15:49, 1 October 2010 (UTC)
 
::The crates drop randomly, the keys to open them are purchase-only. -[[User:RJackson|<span style="background-color:#FF0000;color:white;font-size:0.7em;padding: 0 2px;">RJ</span>]]{{mod}} 15:50, 1 October 2010 (UTC)
 
 
 
 
 
== How is it randomized? ==
 
Does each item have the same chance of being uncrated, or is there a weighted system?--[[User:Gatherto|Gatherto]]
 
:Maybe we should put a percentage table on the page so people can post what they got?--[[User:Corrderio|Corrderio]]
 
:: I collected some data from SPUF based on that
 
 
 
::From what we got so far(114 samples) there is
 
 
 
::38.59% chance of getting an old weapon
 
::21.05% chance of getting a hat
 
::20.17% chance of getting a paint can
 
::9.64 % chance of getting a name tag
 
::7.89 % chance of getting a polycount weapon
 
::2.63 % chance of getting an unusual hat --[[User:Banished one|Banished one]] 10:03, 3 October 2010 (UTC)
 
 
 
I'm not so sure that the data should be on the page just yet.  It's still new, can we confirm those observations?  --[[User:Fragment of Nothing|Fragment of Nothing]] 10:10, 3 October 2010 (UTC)
 
 
 
I currently have a thread on the Steam forums [http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1483294] where I'm tallying up what people have opened so far.  Currently, a total of 326 crates.  I just hope it helps with the statistics. --[[User:Toahpt|Toahpt]]  17:07 7 October 2010 (EST)
 
As of 22:41, 7 October, There's a total of 687 crates tallied on my thread.  I'm sure the number will continue to grow.  --[[User:Toahpt|Toahpt]]
 
 
 
No, but the page does say "It may contain content that is inaccurate or undocumented" at the top. I thought we should have some numbers to give people a vague idea about what to expect from a crate.--[[User:Banished one|Banished one]] 10:22, 3 October 2010 (UTC)
 
:Out of the eight I have opened, 2 gunslingers, 2 scottish resistance, 2 black paint, 1 white paint, 1 old guadalajero. Hope that helps at all.[[User:Rhonlore|Rhonlore]] 01:36, 7 October 2010 (UTC)
 
 
 
== What does it drop like? ==
 
Does it have the same drop rate as an item, a hat, or its own drop rate?--[[User:Gatherto|Gatherto]]
 
 
 
i'm not sure if it has it's own drop rate but certainly it's not as rare as a hat.--[[User:Banished one|Banished one]] 10:53, 3 October 2010 (UTC)
 
:I'm led to believe that the drop rate is similar if not the same as weapons... {{n}}[[User:Smashman|<span class="bur">Smashman</span>]]<sub>&nbsp;([[User_talk:Smashman|talk]])</sub> {{bur}} 11:05, 3 October 2010 (UTC)
 
 
 
== Drop rate table ==
 
 
 
Would it be possible to have in this section of the talk page a freely editable drop rate table based on what users get in the crate? For example, this is the data I have so far:

If someone could add a 'total' row and work out the percentage drop rate for the data collected so far (maybe make the table look better while they're at it) then I would be very, very grateful.

==Uncrate/Unbox==
 
 
 
Whenever I open a crate and then return to the game, the chat reads 'has unboxed', not 'has uncrated' as stated on this page. Is uncrated even a word?--[[User:Focusknock|Focusknock]] 08:42, 8 October 2010 (UTC)
 
 
 
 
 
It should be "unboxed", uncrated is probably a mistranslation. --[[User:Banished one|Banished one]] 19:36, 9 October 2010 (UTC)
 
 
 
 
 
The yellow text in the introduction is very ugly to read on a white background.
 
Apparently the Font Color template doesn't work on the TF2 wiki. (at least, according to it failing on me)
