Winter Bash 2014 will again be available to all sites that choose to participate. We’re redesigning all the hats and adding some extra features to keep things fresh and exciting.

This event will run from 15 December 2014 to 4 January 2015. Users will be able to see their entire hat collection on winterbash2014.stackexchange.com. That site will also have a landing page, explaining the rules and other details of the event.

Individual users who don’t want to participate, don’t want to see hats, and/or are generally anti-hat will have an “I hate hats” option available. And just like last time, at the end of the event, all hats will go back into storage.

The only visual change to the Stack Exchange sites themselves will be the presence of the hats and the “I hate hats” button in the footer.

So, do we want to participate again this year?

Update

It's official, we're in. :)

  • I have no idea what this is. I guess I missed it last year. Can you explain it a bit more? I went to the 2013 page. Are these like badges in a way? Thanks in Advance! BTW- Whatever it is, I am in as long I do not have to dance on tables in my underwear and a tutu. I just do not look as good as Cheech!

  • @closetnoc: For various achievements, you can get various hats for your profile avatar. So yes, a bit like badges in a way.

  • @zigojacko It must have been just ending last year when I came to this site because I slightly do remember a hat or two now that I have had some coffee. Thanks!

    I thought it was not right that you did not have an up-vote! Cheers my friend.

    How embarrassing, we're wearing the same hat :-) How did I miss the Boba Fett one!?

I am in - one up-vote from the mountains where it has been snowing and single digits outside. You think I am going outside?

    @Zistoloen ;-) If I did not wear a hat, I would laser satellites and Martians with my chrome dome!!

    @Zistoloen In fact, hats upon hats might be a good idea!!

Might as well participate again hadn't we? For some members, I'm sure they'd like it as a bit of fun - if others don't want to participate, they can just keep their usual avatar (as far as I can remember)...
