Previous Changes
- The Enthusiast's Timepiece was added to the game and could be found via the item drop system and crafting for a short while.
Bugs
- While playing Poker Night, it is possible to obtain the above item through a glitch. If a user with a Steam Account has completed all four item based achievements on Poker Night at the Inventory, logs out of the Steam account, switches to another Steam account on the same computer, boots the game, and then finally enters a poker game - the 2nd steam user will be granted all four achievements and will also receive all five items once booting Team Fortress 2 without having to win one hand of poker.
Trivia
- When Tycho first shows the watch to Gabe, the co-star of the Penny Arcade webcomic, Gabe kills Tycho to obtain it. The watch has since changed hands repeatedly, through the characters murdering each other. [1][2]
- The Cloak meter emulates the Pac-man derived logo commonly seen worn on Tycho's friend Gabe's shirt[3] as well as a tattoo on his arm.[4]
- When Tycho wagers this in Poker Night at the Inventory you can see that the watch is stained with blood. However, once you eliminate him from play and obtain the watch in Team Fortress 2, the stain is no longer visible.
