Nametags are best used on your favorite weapons, often calling them names given by your opponents in a fit of rage after you've killed them for the 10th time in a row on a map.

You're Eternal Reward is truly a modern classic, you definitely have to go with that.

So with through all the manconomy updates and additional hats have they ever increased the hat drop rate? Because if not I guess I got pretty lucky yesterday (even more lucky if I played much sniper):

I have been trying to come up with a good minigun name since they released nametags with zero success.

Edit: Holy Crap Droopy!

IT'S A TRAP.

On a side note, I'll totally give you a Bonk Helm for that silly old Villain's Veil. Nobody wants that thing after all. Yup. >_>

You'll notice we keep bringing up the Veil. Maybe you should acquaint yourself with TF2TP and trade that for at least two decent hats, maybe even better while the value is still high.

But seriously, I have a Safe 'n' Sound with your name on it.

I hate you so much right now. My only drops so far have been 2 bonk drinks.

And I thought I was lucky when I got three hat drops in three weeks.

As for the numbered Villain's Veil, people are trading out their ass to get numbered versions if they're under 100. I've seen people trade earbuds and more straight up for some of them. You could always give it to me though, I will wear it. I WILL WEAR IT.

I've been trying to get it forever, but today I decided to actively seek it out.

Vintage whiskered gentleman, painted white.

Managed to get a straight swap for it for a vintage safe n sound. Then got an extraordinary abundance of tinge for 2 refined.

Probably overpaid for the paint slightly, but considering its the only thing I've ever particularly wanted in TF2, and I got it near instantly after looking on the forums, it was good enough.

The world of serious TF2 item trading is a dark and frightening place. It's amazing all the craziness Valve spawned from nothing.

So, does replay work on the GAF server yet? Or is my 6 second video of a solider blowing him self up going to win the Saxxy award in all categories.

Well, the files would need to save to the server Yeef has the maps stored on. I think I saw some options to also make it password protected, so randoms don't just spam it.

I can look into how converting demos into replays work, if that is ok I'll just record a bunch of demos.

Hey, I'm pretty much a noob at TF2 and I'm trying to find a game/server to play on as I type.

Any suggestions?

Either Gibbed Gaming servers, just let them know you're new and the will give you tips or NewbsTF/TF2Newbs which is a give away.

That girl in the bunny hat
I know it's a pretty pointless achievement, but I finally managed to get every unique weapon in the game. Not every weapon, don't have a Fishcake or Golden Wrench, but I have every set of weapon stats available to me in one form or another. Now I just need the three remaining Polycount hats and I'll have every item that actually matters...

Not unless that also means...

Mind you, Snipers would absolutely love this, but it's actually just a glitch in the loadout area that sometimes happens, I think. I took this shot back in February. Yours looks a little different, but I think it's the same basic glitch.

You can get them though the generic weapon crafts. Same with the Fishcake. Class Token + Slot Token + Scrap

How does the Villain's Veil you got look in your backpack? Does it just have "Villain's Veil" and the level? Or is it numbered like when it's crafted? I've been wondering how that would work when the new hats were found in a drop instead of being crafted.

It's a little annoying, though, I had to try several times to craft a Sticky Jumper. Each time you have to collect three Demo weapons, three Primary weapons, and enough to make another Scrap. And at the end of it all, you might just get a Chargin' Targe or Scottish Resistance back.

Very true, but over a few months you are bound to get it. I mean, you do have a point, which is worth more, tons of items and time, or $.49.

What are you doing up so early/late/[whatever time it is there] bacon?!

Also, there are plans in the works to figure out what's going on with the non-replay related jank the server's been getting over the last few weeks.
