Talk:Hat Describing Contest

Winners

Should a list of winners be in this article? - LingoSalad 23:06, 10 November 2010 (UTC)

Excellent idea. Go for it. Try and make it as clean and clutter free. – Smashman _(talk) 23:09, 10 November 2010 (UTC)

This give me an idea. Why don't we make like this?

Winner	Item	Description
TheTwoTonHammer		You'll be batting a thousand (skulls in) when you don this red piece of plastic!
PrO-bOy		When drinking one radioactive beverage at a time is not enough.

And stuff. -- OluapPlayer _(t) 23:17, 10 November 2010 (UTC)

Sexy as hell. Do it. -- En Ex _(talk) 01:00, 11 November 2010 (UTC)

I like. Moussekateer 01:00, 11 November 2010 (UTC)

Looks good! These people didn't really get any in-game recognition so it would be nice to have a place with all of their names. -- - _{(talk | contribs)} -- 01:03, 11 November 2010 (UTC)

 SupportYou should do it, it will make the place very tidy! – Jeff Andonuts 01:06, 11 November 2010 (UTC)

I guess one person can cover all the hats, although would be much quicker if multiple people contributed. Also: Should there be a section devoted to hats that did not receive a description? --Exiggah 01:09, 11 November 2010 (UTC)

You could list descriptionless hats in the table with a note saying "This hat did not receive a description." or "This hat was not part of the contest.". Hats released after the contest should probably stay off the page. Toomai Glittershine 01:28, 11 November 2010 (UTC)

Started working on it. - LingoSalad 02:19, 11 November 2010 (UTC)

When were they added to the game?

According to Hats, they were added on August 27th when I was under the impression they were added during the Mann-Conomy Update. I thought the 27th was just the deadline. – Smashman _(talk) 11:53, 9 December 2010 (UTC)

Replacing links

The link to the forums on all these hats' pages are broken. I've started replacing them with the links in the "Forums name" column. e.g.: http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showpost.php?p=16696136&postcount=84 → http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/member.php?u=821748 So far I've done the Batter's Helmet and Ritzy Rick's Hair Fixative. I'll never be able to do this all by myself, and apparently bots can't help me with this either, so some help would be greatly appreciated. - Eels 21/01/2013

If you want to wait till later I can write a script to do this. —Moussekateer·talk 10:44, 21 January 2013 (PST)

If really nobody noticed this until now, I'm sure it can wait a little longer. Thanks! - Eels 21/01/2013

Since no one cared since now...Can we just remove the links to the steam forum, IF the guy doesnt exist anymore? F.e. Grizzled_Veteran ; the link to the steamforum doesnt work. User doesnt exist. Thread doesnt exist. So could we only name the guy and that is it? Magicalpony (talk) 11:57, 13 September 2015 (PDT)
