What is Winter Bash all about?

Winter Bash seems to have really taken off here and I am a newer user. Can anyone summarize everything that has been discussed over the past few days on here?

The http://winterba.sh/faq is lacking considering all the questions under the winterbash tag.

This is a dup of everything. That's got to be some kind of record. –  Chris Gerken Dec 20 '12 at 19:14

There is no need to add that to the FAQ.

Your answer is based on the [winterbash] tag, a tag I created. You owe me half the rep you got here... (I'm trolling you Neal ;). –  Yannis Dec 20 '12 at 20:06
@Yannis lol lucky. –  amanaP lanaC A nalP A naM A Dec 20 '12 at 20:07

You can see a list of all the hats and how to get them here.

From that Q/A:

Why are you doing this to us?

For sites that have hats on by default, your moderator teams or your communities indicated that hats would be a fun, lighthearted thing to do. Why did we offer it? Because we thought it was a nice way to finish out a really amazing year. You can always decide you hate hats and turn them off.

but who the hell hates hats? –  jdotjdot Dec 20 '12 at 19:59


  • Do good things on site
  • Get hats
  • Show hat to others
  • Have fun
  • Hate having fun.

Only a few days in the year. So enjoy. –  Toon Krijthe Dec 20 '12 at 19:05
@aman You can have fun, you are just required to hate it at the same time. –  Josh Caswell Dec 20 '12 at 19:36
