That is about as useful as a Engineer without his Wrench. Near useless. Are we authorized to erase that? Fyahweather 07:33, 8 May 2011 (UTC)

Time restriction

Any time restriction to get this hat ? --Baptiste 'BapNesS' Carlier 08:20, 6 May 2011 (UTC)

No. -- En Ex _(talk) 08:21, 6 May 2011 (UTC)

Just like the other achievements there is no time restriction Turtlebolt 16:10, 21 May 2011 (UTC)

Steam Accounts Link with YouTube Accounts?

So how will the achievement that gets this hat work? And by that I mean how will TF2 know that a video that you uploaded to YouTube get 1000 views? Is there a feature that allows you to link a Steam account with YouTube? Because if that is ho it works, that is very cool. Fate Soul Blake 17:07, 6 May 2011 (UTC)

After you save a replay, you convert it to movie format in TF2. After you've done that, there is an option that says "YouTube it!" which prompts for your YouTube username and password. After you enter that, it will upload to YouTube from TF2. The two accounts are linked, but I don't think anyone knows how far just yet. For example, what would happen if you used two different accounts for two different videos? Would it only monitor one account/video? Does it let you use more than one account? I'm assuming it simply monitors the video ID returned after uploading, regardless of the account used to upload it. However, I uploaded a video yesterday and the YouTube achievement counters have yet to increase. There's no telling how often it checks for updates - maybe once every 24 hours or so - or it may just be bugged and not even check yet. But there is already a section in-game that lets you upload to YouTube via TF2. - GAMEchief 17:42, 6 May 2011 (UTC)

The youtube view count updates are delayed sometimes. Also your video has to be viewed outside of tf2 in order for it to count as viewed. Turtlebolt 14:17, 15 May 2011 (UTC)

It is definitly still bugged. I have a video created through the replay system, edited there, and uploaded to my youtube account all through TF2. It has 140 youtube views, yet the achievment says I have Zero Views. The video has been up a week. --The Blueberry Villain 20:00, 24 May 2011 (UTC)

@ Blueberry Villain, did you go onto the video in the game. If you didn't it will not count the views.

Trivia Correction

Whoever put that this hat is a reference to "Paul Gordon" is clearly a moron. I guess they just googled "writer director star", found this article, and just went hog wild. Then someone else assumed they were talking about the Paul Gordon of some random Seventh-Day Adventist thing on Wikipedia? Cronodoculous 19:32, 13 May 2011 (UTC)

Which is the fate of most trivia. Though, I wouldn't call them a "moron." Just a Gigolo - (talk) 14:11, 23 May 2011 (UTC)
