Thank you's/Shoutouts:

EVERYONE who donated ANYTHING: Whether it was monetary or an item to be used in raffles, your contribution helped achieve something great this past weekend.

TrukTruk: For doing an AMAZING job with production. The widget tracker was one of the coolest things I had ever seen and donors responded incredibly to it. Camera work was excellent and I even got compliments on the music selection. On top of all of this, he stayed up incredibly late making additional overlays for Sunday. Thank's Kurt!

WhiskerBiscuit: The amount of organization Whisker brought to this process was incredible and I gave him and the rest of the items team complete trust to handle raffle entries. He was our items team manager and also did a lot of the graphics for the stream and twitch page. Thank you Whisker!

Lange: The one and only. Configuring and maintaining all the servers for this, assisting with basically anything that was needed, and filling in with casting/player spots. Thank's again big daddy.

Item's team: Whisker, trev, Azi, bigfuck, wreath, SharplessSix(Who made the class patches for the Merchandise Raffle), and Renhet(who also did an amazing job with the poster art and stream graphics.) Everyone contributed greatly to the success and they were swamped Saturday and staring at spreadsheets for me is kind of a thankless job, for which I cannot thank them enough.

Tragic: For server/website hosting, donating prizes, giving coupon discount codes, and donating $10 pizza gift cards to the items crew. Thank you for everything. Expect to see an email with a 20% off code if you donated during the event.

STAR_: This guy put a lot of faith in me and set aside a lot of his weekend to participate in this, and I have no doubts that his participation helped this become something massive. Just looking at chat briefly throughout the day you would see him mentioned over and over. Him and his fans did a lot for us and I'm truly thankful. He also donated a lot of unusuals towards the event, along with many other things.

Admirable: He did an incredible job hosting, helped me organize EU rosters, wrote some amazing articles on Vanillatv, and followed through with his pledge and donated $654 for twitter follows. A pleasure to work with you Ads, thank's a ton.

Hosts: Bloodsire, Salamancer, STAR_, Ma3laa, Dellort, cbear, djc, Admirable, Kip, and everyone else who helped entertain people throughout the weekend. Thank you so much!

Players: Everyone who participated and helped provide some of the best content in recent memory. I think all the events were a hit but I want to give a personal thanks to the Jump guys for taking initiative and planning a great segment, which is why we ended up extending it by an hour.

Chat mods: Too many to list, but personal thanks to lamefx for being lamefx. Huge plays.

This total may also rise if Paypal retroactively applies a lower fee now that I've added the non-profit info and upgraded it to a business account.

We oversold the signed stranges slightly. We can fill the orders but we could use gift wraps and a few more strange weapons.
Needed:
Gift Wraps
3 Strange Grenade Launchers
If you're willing to send a few of these our way; we'd be incredibly greatful. You can add me http://steamcommunity.com/id/seanbud/ or Whisker Biscuit http://steamcommunity.com/id/whiskerbiscuit/

VODS/Youtube:
There are vods available on the channel: http://www.twitch.tv/tipofthehats
Highlights of each event will be created and uploaded to youtube within the coming week(s). You can also expect a lengthy highlight reel of some of the best moments. We ask that you hold off on uploading any further videos until we've generated our own content, so that we can centralize all of the content and use it to promote the next events. If there are any specific moments you'd like immortalized, comment here with a vod link and time!

Are we going to host another one?
Hell. Yes. Follow our progress:

Excellent work, guys and girls. You truly brought the TF2 communities together for this.

And my hat is off (pun intended) to the viewers, donators, and participants for making their hard work worth it.
