February 28, 2011 Patch

Bugs

  • This hat will appear black when running the game under DirectX 8.

Trivia

  • The description is a reference to The Bible, Exodus 22:18, which is often translated as "Suffer not a witch to live", referring to the Template:Ws and their practice of executing those accused of witchcraft.
  • The hat was submitted under the name "The Inquisitor" before Valve renamed it "Carouser's Capotain". Because of the changed name, the hat's textures are in the Demoman hat folder twice.
  • Originally, this hat was much darker, and painting the hat affected the band color. The creator later updated this to make it less dark and changed the band to a fixed color.
  • A carouser is a participant in a noisy, lively drinking party or one who engages in drinking plentiful amounts of alcohol.
  • The hat also references the Template:W that took place in Europe during the Middle Ages, notably in Ireland.
