The Soldier on having an abundance of stamps

The Philateler (/fɪˈlætələr/) is a one-of-a-kind cosmetic item for all classes. It is an oversized top hat, large enough to cover the top half of the player's head, giving off a team-colored glow. The hat is covered in stamps and has a magnifying glass and a folded map stuck in the band.

This item is awarded to the player that purchased the most Map Stamps on the previous day. Possession of the hat is not permanent and is limited to the player that purchased the most Map Stamps in a given 24-hour period. This potentially allows the same player to possess the hat multiple days in a row if the player can maintain the most Map Stamps purchased. Paint, custom descriptions and custom names on this hat, as well as its level, carry over to the next owner.
