Congrats! I think I've only had 1 hat drop the entire time I've been playing.

I laughed too much at this, sorry.
At least you got good looking hats. The other week I got a dead cone...Who wants a plastic traffic stopper?! (zombies I know but still...)
I've usually been pretty lucky with hat drops when I get them.
The only time I've ever really felt unlucky was right after the Halloween update last year. I bought a Sir Hootsalot from the store to support Ned Ballard and then the next day I got one in a random drop. I was somewhat unhappy. I still have both of them. I'm not sure what to do with my extra. Maybe I will trade him for something else.

Nah, they're brothers now. If you tear them apart, they'll curse your hat dropping luck and you will never see another hat drop again...
...Or just sell it for a key or something!

This is probably obvious to everybody, but I just love the way TF2 looks, aesthetically. Even with all the damn hats and accessories and shit. I see a picture of one of the classes, and I just want to play the game again.
then I hop on a server with 3 spies and two snipers, while red team has 4 engis turtling up Dustbowl, and then I log off and say, "Fuck this game"

Well there's your problem.
But damn does terrible class composition rile me up sometimes.

The day crowd is usually not that good depending on the server. Don't go to the 24/7 "X map" type of servers during the day (or in general if you're that stubborn) and other servers should be reserved to night. That's usually when the people that aren't under 10 play the game anyways. From what I observed anyhow.
Ok guys. So I want to clothe my scout. I am basically new to the game since I only played a little bit before it went F2P.
Should I do 3x Refined for a random headgear, hope I get lucky, and trade for what I want?
Or
4x Refined + Scout token for Random Scout Headgear.
Or
Just trade my refined and other items for what I want?
My current items for trade are:
2x Refined
2x Recaimed
Ghastlieriest Gibus
2xEllis' Cap
Frying Pan
Tribal Bones
Grenaider Helm
Void Monk Hair
Ninja Cowl
Respectless Rubber Glove
I also have Bioshock Infinite and Don't Starve preorder items.

If you have something in mind that you actually want for Scout, then stock up on your ref and use a trade site like http://www.tf2outpost.com/ instead to get what you want and trade off any of your current unwanted hats for ref as well. No point in wasting ref on the gamble.

Trade. Don't craft unless it's a new released item and you want a certain low number.
Oh damn
http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/9342346
So I can trade my 2 Refined for a Flight of the Monarch right now?
That is pretty sick.
Should I do it?

Wait.
Is that really what the flight of the monarch info is?
Really?
How did I not know?

Citizens of the Jank!
I will be on Hiatus for about two weeks, as I visit various places on the fabled east coast! I may be able to respond on Forum but you will not see nor hear me on the Jank.
Be strong in my Absence, I will return eventually...

The hat could end up paying for a large portion of the cost of the rift itself.
But i don't know how limited the pre-orders and stuff were etc

Well have a safe trip and don't blame me if your hands freeze off!
Also...
Khan/Mongoose isn't Helpful
According to this post, apparently Kickstarter backers (at all levels apparently, so even Kickstarter people who didn't order a Rift?) + anyone who pre-orders a Rift before 4/1 will get a code.
So, one must ask:
- How many speculators are willing to put up $300?
- How many of those Kickstarter codes will actually be redeemed?
I think the people who anticipate paying for their Rift with the hat are crazy, but who even knows.
Edit: I am so dumb. Why am I so dumb? I blacked out three digits by the way, so looks like there are lots and lots of pre-orders.

So over the past week GAF has given me advice and helped me along the way to dressing up my scout!
Special shout out to JaseC, Vargas, and Zerokku for donating their old items, or even buying me a genuine in Zerokku's case.
Rickenslagger and Dr. Paingloss also gave me some good advice about crafting/trading, completely opened my eyes.
I've been combing my old uniques like mad into refined, trading, and got what I needed.
I have most of the scout weapons now as well, the only ones that I am missing are Crit Cola, Guillotine, Wrap Assassin, Candy Cane, Atomizer, and some promotional ones.

That's pretty much it, yep.
If what I was reading was correct, they jumped to the 40,000 range from some lower range, so there may actually be many fewer orders for all I know.

Well...at least your fashion statement makes more sense than Zeke's.
