“You are so small! Is funny to me!” This article is a stub. As such, it is not complete. You can help Team Fortress Wiki by expanding it. Notes: There is enough information in the Potato.tf announcements to write the initial report on the Contest now (rules, deadlines, judging). |
Operation Madness vs Machines is a hybrid Contest-Charity-Campaign community Mann vs Machine event organized and hosted by Potato's Custom MvM Servers that was announced on January 11, 2019.

Contest
Charity
The event is also host to a charity drive for Extra Life. By donating at least 10 USD through item or monetary donations, players may earn the Madness vs. Machines Hopeful Heart medal. Each time the charity drive collectively passes a $5,000 threshold, each player who has donated at least 1 USD will also receive the Madness vs. Machines Boundless Heart medal.
Campaign
The Campaign was originally announced to deploy on May 17th, but it was further delayed to June 1st, so it could start at the same time as everybody's summer vacation.[1] It was again delayed to July 1st due to server maintenance and fixes and then, shortly after, was decided that the Campaign will launch whenever the Campaign is fully ready to launch.[2]
At the moment, there is no specific date for the launch of the campaign.[3]
Rewards
During the event, five unlockable medals of different tiers are up for grabs. These medals are automatically granted once the player reaches the tour points/contract stars threshold required for them. Unlike leveling campaign tokens, these medals are separate items, so it is possible to own all five medals at once. In addition, the Pinnacle of Ingenuity medal is awarded to all contest participants whose submissions were accepted into the campaign. The charity drive awards two medals as well, one for donating 10 USD individually, and one for passing cooperative donation thresholds.
Each medal has two styles, named "Normal" and "Gem Only". The "Gem Only" style displays only the gemstones, without the robot hands or metal frames.
These medals were contributed to the Steam Workshop by NeoDement, Sntr, Erikku, sigsegv, Jakapoa, Pelipoika, interrobang, Mayor Rev, Z-Ben, kratos, Nuke, Hydrogen, Hyperion, Potato's MvM Server, DaanBox, Swordstone, and Geel.
