OBJECTION!

But that directly contradicts the "Drop Rate" Report.if you idle you will receive all your items from that week reducing your chances of getting a hat! Your honor, THE ENGINEER WOULD HAVE NEVER RECEIVED THAT AMOUNT OF HATS IN ANY TIMESPAN WHAT SO EVER

Good morning Professor Falken. Do you want to play a game of "Thermo Nuclear War"?

Lol yes I should play for 8 hours a day to maybe get a dumb hat when I have a life outside the game to worry about. No big deal anyways, hats are all e-peen and like the artist said below this comic mean shit. :D

heres the basic dropprate:
hat dropps with 1 to 200 chance
so if your not unlucky you will get it with a 0.5% chance by simply just playing the game
i already got one of the medic hats without having to resort to idling

@Sollar: You just failed pretty damn hard.

The exact chance of getting a hat has been determined by the creator of the TF2 idling program.
You have a 1 in 84 chance every 4 hours, 17 minutes, and 10 seconds of playtime to get a hat.
That's not very good. =o

Ah, yes. Thanks for clearing that up. I remember the movie War Games now. Pretty cool.

whatever you think about  idlers
it's not gonna change anything
don't blame us
blame the douchebag at valve who think of this 0.45% drop system

If the servers you play in have people strutting their e-peens thanks to a richness of hats, you're playing on the wrong servers, IMO. I have but 1 hat from 3 months of solid play (no idling), yet I've never been made to feel POOR or IRISH on my fave servers!

You know, some servers have figured out how to let you wear ANY hat.
With any class.(I personally enjoy a medic with a top hat.)

I can't believe no one mentionned the game yet.
Rule 1: You are playing the game.
Rule 2: Every time you think of the game, you lose.
Rule 3: Loss must be announced.
The only way to not lose the game is not play it (not know about it).
Also, I lost the game, and so did you.

@Noob: You go to C:\Windows, delete System32 and restart your PC.
'cause if you're going to idle don't bother getting the game.

Why do people hate idlers? You can do a lot more productive things than playing TF2, and you can get a hat while doing it! Everybody wins!

"The only winning move is not to play."

EVERY TIME AN IDLER GETS A HAT
SOMEONE PLAYING THE GAME LOSES NOTHING. THEY HAVE AN EQUAL CHANCE. THEY ARE SIMPLY PLAYING THE GAME. 

AND THE GAME SUCKS. (Not gameplay or servers but the random drop factor sucks Also you lost the game)

And to think... people used to complain about having to get achievements to unlock weapons. Valve's plan (in introducing both random drops and hats) was probably just to get people to stop complaining about achievements. Farm 'em or earn 'em, either way you have control.

A POSSIBLE FIX: You have to make atleast 1 Point each 5 Minutes to even get the chance. If you're an engineer waiting somewhere behind with noone coming, well... Then you're doing it wrong, get the situation already and move nearer to the front, geeze.

Well, i only got the demo's afro. I dont play for the hats, its something extra so its cool when it happens when im playing. Its not like a mmorpg, where a bot can gives you powerfull itens and money, those TF2's hats does NOTHING ( thanks god ).

God, I've haven't gotten a single hat, I've used the idler, and I've left it on all night, and I'll still never have any hats. They should make the chance of getting a hat a bit higher but noit much

Should be: 'The only winning move is TO NOT play.'
'Team Fortress 2 now HAS hats.'
'While the hats DON'T give you any bonus'
'Now that WE'VE tasted it.'
'INappropriate.'
