| − | :'''Not a problem :) It's easy enough to do, but does require quite a lot of code so to make things simpler it's a good idea to make a separate loadout page (something like '''[[User:Magnum Force-Enforcer/Loadout]]''' would do) so that you can edit and play around with the code without having to worry about messing up your user page. You can display it on your userpage the same way you'd do so with a template on any article on the wiki, with the code '''<nowiki>{{User:Magnum Force-Enforcer/Loadout}}</nowiki>'''. You can see I've done a similar thing [[User:Cooper Kid/Loadout|here]].'''
| |
| − | :''' The next step is to get the code you need - the easiest thing to do is just copy the code from my one and edit it to suit your loadout. It's actually pretty basic - the table and tabs on the left are all done by the '''<nowiki>{{ClassTabs}}</nowiki>''' template, so all you need to change are the parameters in each of the '''<nowiki>{{User Item}}</nowiki>''' templates, the same way you use the parameters in a userbox.

I've been letting everyone who uses the template know whenever I change anything major but as more and more people are using it that's becoming more trouble than it's worth.

There's nothing preventing items from being repeated, but there are 228 hats and 117 miscs, so the chances of the same item being picked more than once are pretty slim.

| |
| − | Slim is actually wrong, there. If you haven't, look at the {{w|Birthday problem}}. 228+117=345, so less than the days in the year. Sheer luck, no less, has brought us this far. That or there's a bit about the way randomness works. Regardless, if you have the time you might consider (or I might consider) attributing that duty to [[User:WindBOT|WindBOT]] or some other such bot. [[User:Darkid|Darkid]] ([[User talk:Darkid|Talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/Darkid|contribs]]) 04:23, 15 May 2012 (PDT)
| |
| − | <br>Aha! Your random number generator is not random at all. Since it keeps the same year, and cycles through weeks, it will run through a non-repeating list of 50 hats (and miscs). However, next year there is no such guarantee, and a hat from the previous year might appear. This is likely within the tolerance of such a program. And, since hats (and miscs) keep being released, it increases the modulo. Albeit these changes *could* cause issue, but it is not likely. If you were using a random number generator, collisions become much more likely. [[User:Darkid|Darkid]] ([[User talk:Darkid|Talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/Darkid|contribs]]) 04:34, 15 May 2012 (PDT)
| |
| − | :'''Ah, but it uses the current year as a factor in the calculation, so it ''does'' change each year. Like you said though, the number of hats and miscs changes almost every week, so that doesn't really matter. The randomness factor is of course all down to luck. One option would be to remove an item from the list once it comes up, but I decided it doesn't really matter if the same hat is picked twice - the chances of it happening for two weeks in a row are still minimal. It's an interesting experiment nonetheless - I've been expecting an item to repeat for some weeks now. <br>I had originally intended for the generator to be a duty assigned to a bot, or even to link it directly to the template so that it updated itself, but there was an issue involving the cache and increased loading times that comes with using such a complex template. Some of the mods were happy to just forget the whole thing, so I volunteered to look after it manually.'''

| − | Cooper Kid, Please let me remind you that this issue had been discussed many times in the TF2 Wiki, and I have to say that any of your concern and dissatisfaction does not happen, and will not happen in the future. After much discussion, what the Chinese did is surely not acceptable, even though with the Terms of Use. Please understand that no matter how perfect any laws and rules are, they are rigid, and need to be executed flexibly by administer. That's why admins and moderators exist, because they have to apply the rules with their careful judgment. In order to use the rules smoothly and without controversy, the moderators and admins have to learn to be flexible, so that the rules can be used with flexibility, and prevent someone to use it improperly and unjustly. That's why even though with the Terms of Use, I still need to delete those pages. Stopping the copy acts and prevent any moral injustice is my responsibility and my duty in the Wiki. So please do not think of my act as the improper act, I have to stop these act from continuing happen. It is not because I ''"feel"'', it's because I ''"have to"''.<br>Plus, even though you do not agree with any of my act, I am still a moderator. The admins gave me the power and right to delete and protect the pages, is because they trust me and my own judgment. If my acts are considered improper act, then why they still help me delete the pages when I was NOT a moderator yet? That's because they have understood the whole situation and know my requests are reasonable and commendable. Chinese is a really complicated language, I do not have the confidence to explain and make you understand. You have to trust my judgment, I did not and will not delete all the zh-hans pages just for fun or vengeance. If you still think that I am evil or outlaw, then feel free to think in that way, I will still continue blocking the users who are copying pages and delete those copied pages, and do everything that I consider right and just.<br>[[File:User ~www~ Avatar cont clear.jpg|100px|link=User:~www~|~www~]] 07:06, 19 May 2012 (PDT)

I can see now that you've given it all the consideration it requires, and I'm perfectly happy with that - I really didn't mean to doubt your judgement as a moderator, and you have my apologies for the misunderstanding.

| − | I have used 4 [[Pile o' Gifts]] on servers with at least 24 active players to ensure the maximum efficiency of my Pile o' Gifts. The last three times using a pile every player who got a Secret Saxton (respectively 1 - 1 - 2) also got a normal weapon '''in addition to the Saxton'''. This can be confirmed by reading the server logs. Please undo the removal of the trivia on the Pile o' Gifts page. [[User:Wiethoofd|Wiethoofd]] 04:12, 28 May 2012 (PDT)

| − | :'''You said it yourself - if you've used 4 and only in the last 3 were extra gifts given, that's not consistent enough to be deemed as regular behaviour. It's just coincidence that those four players happened to get their next drop at the same time that you used your Pile o' Gifts. There may be some hidden code which makes it more likely for drops to occur immediately after receiving a gift; I don't know, but it will take more testing to figure out for sure.'''

| − | In the chat box it said:
| |
| − | * Player was gifted: Secret Saxton
| |
| − | * Player was gifted: Boston Basher
| |
| − | Only the last three times there were Saxtons gifted, but when they were there was the additional line for another gift in the chat/server log.
| |
| − | If it had been a drop it would have said: Player found: Mannthreads, uncrating has it's own response rule in chat, as does trading and unwrapping gifts. [[User:Wiethoofd|Wiethoofd]] 04:40, 28 May 2012 (PDT)

| − | Today I used 2 Pile o' Gifts (generous mood) and the first gifted someone a Secret Saxton and additional gift. I copied the complete chat log, wrote down previous gifts given counters and will analyse my findings. Also I will start the discussion on the [[Talk:Pile o' Gifts|Pile o' Gifts talk page]] if my hypothesis is right so the Trivia section can be reinstated.

| − | == Bad Trivia ==
| |
| − | I see you removed some of my trivia on the Demoman page. Was wondering why? I did read the reason, but the fact you said, "the Demoman is obviously not of Scottish Origin," when the bio says, "Location of origin :Ullapool, Scotland, United Kingdom," seemed a bit contradicting to me. I'm not annoyed, just trying to understand if that makes sense. [[User:Taser9001|Taser9001]] 05:20, 30 May 2012 (PDT)
| |
| − | :'''OK, that was maybe a bad example - basically I was trying to say that the characters' names are irrelevant. The fact that DeGroot is a Dutch name pales into insignificance when you consider that, being black, the Demoman is obviously not of Scottish origin. There are no 'native' black Scots, so to speak. That's not to say he isn't Scottish though. The fact is that if the Medic's name was John Smith there wouldn't be a piece of trivia stating that Smith isn't a German name - it's just not that interesting.'''

| |
| − | :'''The loadout one is one of my own creations and a little more difficult as the only way to do it is to fill the whole thing out manually. It uses a template I made called {{tl|User Item}} which acts a bit like a userbox. The easiest way I think would be to go to my [[User:Cooper Kid/Loadout|Loadout page]], copy the code there, and paste it onto a seperate page for yourself. Then edit the values to whatever you want. There's a more detailed description on how to use {{tl|User Item}} on its page.'''
| |
| − | :'''By the way, both these pages use templates to display on your user page, to make them easier to edit. This works the same way as any template on the wiki; for example you should make your loadout page at [[User:Taser9001/Loadout]], and display it on your userpage by pasting the code <code><nowiki>{{User:Taser9001/Loadout}}</nowiki> </code>somewhere on it.'''
