Battle Hat!

**hmxsean** · #1 05-01-2008, 05:15 PM

On a lark Johnlok and I came up with a pretty brilliant (dumb) idea. Often times we find ourselves (in Community/Webtown) sitting at our desks, reading the forums, and trying to entertain ourselves by wondering which of two things would win in a fight. We then discuss and debate the relative merits of each of the two things and then determine a winner. No one agrees, it turns into a larger fight, and then things get thrown. Good times.

The thing is, though, sometimes we can't be bothered to just come up with two things. Sometimes we just want the two things chosen by sheer chance.

Hence the BATTLE HAT! It is a standard baseball cap filled with bits of chopped up index cards on which things have been written. Community Team basically sits in a hallway between two major sections of Harmonix and occasionally we can just grab people walking by to reach into the hat for us and pull out a name.

So far we have some pretty impressive names in this hat. But we are looking for more in case you want to suggest some we might like to throw in post it here so we can add it to the hat if it is exceptionally rad. Make it good, there is some pretty awesome competition in the hat already.

Are you man/woman enough to enter... THE BATTLE HAT?!?!?!?!?!?!11!!

I don't understand. Are we supposed to be suggesting things or people?

Yeah, but I'll need to have those little x's on my hands because I'm not 21 yet. Bruce Campbell needs to be in the Battle Hat!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!11

Either! So far we have actual people, artificially intelligent household items, dangerous animals, inanimate objects that can win just by being intensely rad, all sorts of crud.

Ha ha. I like it!

I second Frosty's nomination of Bruce Campbell.

I also nominate Chuck Norris, ALF and a can of Mello Yello.

Wait, do we get to know the outcomes of the Battle Hat?

Our blogs will always end with a battle from the BATTLE HAT! as a post-script. I have a feeling these battles will end up elsewhere as well. This is serious business - it is like we are making a version M.U.G.E.N. with index cards and a smelly old Rock Band hat from last year's truck tour instead of electronics and hand animated 2D sprites.
