Hello!
As some of you know, a little while back, around the time the Earth DLC got officially announced and released, I went ahead and made some statements about Platinum difficulty. I was in fact so bold in my statements about Platinum being hard to farm that I went on and underestimated all you awesome players and said that if you could consistently farm Platinum on FBW, I would buy and eat at least part of a hat. 

Now, it took less than 2 hours for someone to have solo'd Platinum when it released (and I promised I'd tip my hat to you sir, but I'm afraid I ate all of it before I remembered, so here's a shout-out instead), and the consistent victory on Platinum for teams wasn't far behind, proving me immensely wrong to question the might of our community. Unfortunate promises on my side aside it is pretty fantastic to see the videos of people completing/solo-ing Platinum, and based on the couple of threads calling me out and PM'd recipes of hats I'm going to guess that everyone had fun completely destroying what I thought would've been a challenging goal.

Time had come for me to buy and eat (part of) a hat, and today the planning and execution of said endeavor has been completed. (Finally, lazy Jos!)
Of course, I don't expect anyone to take my word for it, so I present you the proof of the hat-eating. (for the love of what's holy, don't fail me image tags)


 
 
 


Hey, but those are cupcakes! They're not hats! I hear you. The cupcakes had little fez hats on top as you can see, and although I cannot recommend they be used as actual headwear, they did make for delicious tasting hats.
Of course, I did not eat all of them, that would be way too much. I shared all of these with my surrounding co-worker friends, and surprisingly none of them seemed to mind getting a delicious cupcake.

Thank you, everyone, for making this a fun thing. I'm obviously going to be much more careful in what I say with regards to betting the community cannot do X or Y, because in all likelihood you'll just prove me wrong again.

Those hats look delicious.

To add to this, we're in a community full of players that love to challenge themselves, so to that end, you sh/could actually make a set of,  let's say...5 monthly challenges, that players can meet, each one earning a commendation pack on completion for that particular player. If we're completely honest, the multiplayer (and paid time of development staff) likely won't last the length of time required for players to meet the 40 commendation packs required for the 40 weapons levels of promotional material.

To this end, you guys get to come up with interesting challenges for us players to attempt to meet in exchange for a reward that promotes playing in different ways.

For example...

"Full extraction on every map on Silver or harder." - One month to complete.

etc.

Something to that end? Apologies for hijacking this to be an ideas thread, but given you gave a challenge to the comunity and had to endure a (Delicious) punishment as a result, this came to mind in much the same way.

Yummy!!! Can you send one to me? Thanks for encouraging us to try it out. I got up to wave eight before getting disconnected .

[Taritu]

lol

Good on you.

Now tweak Platinum with less bosses and more trash, if you can.

[xtorma]

Man of your word.....Good enough for me.

[Rebel_Raven]

Priceless! Epic thread!

[ndw542]

HAX!!

[WMcAlister]

Fez? Spicy stuff. I'd have gone with a mint fedora or a nice smooth strawberry 10 Gallon Hat.

[soultaker65]

The hats and cupcakes should have been Platinum colored.

[Eckswhyzed]

And the community rejoiced.

[DylanBar]

frosted fez???

[Drycaen]

It is widely known that, of all hats, the Fez is the most delicious.

Well Played...

[ndw542]

I'm on my phone, so it'd be a PITA to search, copy, and paste, but I'm about 99% certain a "baseball cap" was specified. I declare frosted shenanigans.

[Wild Wolfie]

A fine fez feast you have there!
Enjoy.

[Kahlmulandr]

Strangely enough....now I want to eat a hat

[GiroX-]

Should have just eaten a live Swarmer.

[Fleetfiend]

I wear a fez now. Fezzes are cool.

[Mozts]

 Holy hell... You sure could use a hat!

I'll directly admit it was, I hope you have it in your heart to forgive me for going with a fez instead.

I'm hungry right now...
