Did You Get Your Secret Team Fortress 2 Medal?

1:40PM August 14, 2009 | Luke Plunkett

To close out a week of update announcements (and updates!), Valve had one final surprise in store for Team Fortress 2 players tonight, offering the first 11,111 players to reach this hidden site a shiny new medal.

Being limited, the offer is of course already done for, all 11,111 medals claimed within a matter of minutes. Were you one of the lucky ones? As you can probably tell from that screengrab there, I certainly was. Shame I can’t poach it on eBay.

    How did become aware of this secret page? Was it linked from somewhere? Emailed to people, hidden with the update text?

    Dangit, I finish work early excited to play me some TF2 and I see this.

    Now all the centrelink bums on the servers I play on will be more irritating then they usually are.

    DAMN YOU WORK, DAMN YOU

    Drat, I went to the page when it was available but thought it was suspicious as it was asking me to login to steam so I left empty handed.

    What does the medal do exactly? Does it just sit on your profile or your does your character wear it or what?

      So your friend saw a link on 4chan that took you to a page where you have to enter your steam ID and he did it?

      Lucky it was legit this time..
