Protip if you just want the Bombinonicon: You don't need to kill him to get to loot island, just get through the portal when he dies. So when he's low health, go scout so you can get to the portal as quick as possible.

Holy shit. I just found out that you can craft away useless hats like the proof of purchase, or mann co paper hat.
I made a pugilist's protector. It's not bad, nor is it good, but at least I'm not poor and irish anymore.

One of these days I'm going to find a way to not suck at TF2.  :(

OTOH, I found my first item last night. I have no idea how. And it's a scout pistol, whereas I pretty much have only ever had success with the Pyro.

Items drop randomly, usually about 1 per 1-2 hours if you havn't played for a while up to the weekly limit.

The Winger? ...yeah, stick to Pyro. The Winger is generally considered one of the worst Scout items - tiny ammo capacity in exchange for a smidge more damage.  :-\

If you misspoke and just got something that looks like a pistol, it might be the Shortstop, in which case I take everything back and encourage you to give Scout a try!

(And items drop randomly - hence why you "don't know how" it dropped. Just keep playing, and you'll get more!)

Yup, that's the one. Awesome...my 1st item and its a dud. I can see why I've found so few then...I rarely play more than a few matches each month before I give up and fiind something less masochistic. I just don't have the reflexes for twitch FPS.

Maybe you should try a different class, then. Pyro can be frustrating to play if you're no good at ambushing. Engineer has almost no 'twitch FPS' requirements - find a good sentry spot, then protect it from Spies and the occasional intelligent Demo. Heavy's also not terrible, and you'll often get a personal Medic to keep you alive.

Scout, on the other hand, is right up there with the Sniper in terms of required twitch skills, so yeah, I wouldn't recommend using Scout items even if you did find a decent one.  ;)

Another possiblity is Medic, although to be a really good medic twitch reactions really helps, but overall you just need to worry about locking on to your patient and let the healing beam do its job, you can help out alot just by healing everyone.

I'm disappointed that they went back to giftboxes for this year's event. It took conniving aplenty just to complete a mask set and now it's the same setup with three times as much stuff. I may just go play Rusty Hearts until this is all over. Their Halloween event may be grindy as all hell, but at least I can do it.

I don't play TF2 so I have no idea, but..

Is a Sandvich worth anything?

I could potentially trade it for items in another game [Spiral Knights] but I seriously have no idea what kind of price I should be shooting for.
Good in-game. Worthless out of game.

Can't trade it anyway because I don't have TF2. [Well, didn't buy it, specifically.]

Dammit, Ein!
You could always spend 1 dollar buying something at the mann co store or whatever it's called and you'll have 'bought' the game.

Also, I think spy really doesn't take many twitch skills. I'm someone who always sucks completely at fps's in general but as a spy I routinely do very well.

Stairstabs and matador stabs take quite a bit precision clicking.

Buck up friendo, we're all on the level here.
I would bet money Andrew has edited things retroactively, except I can't prove anything because it was edited retroactively.
