The Hat Describing Contest is a contest that was announced on August 24, 2010.

Following criticism that previous TF2 contests shunned players without a more than average skill in computer modelling, the TF2 team announced this contest in the blog post with an aim to reach the majority of the community, albeit those registered on the forums. The object of the contest is to allow members of the community to give descriptions to the various in game hats.

  • You must be the sole author of the description and the material must be original to you.
