Q:

What do you think of Winter Bash?

As Winter Bash winds down, I'm interested in hearing your feedback about the event. While I've been pretty responsible about monitoring (and responding to) questions in winterbash, I'm more interested in knowing what you all think of the event! 

What have you enjoyed? 
What would you like to see for next year? 
What kept breaking for you but wasn't annoying enough for you to report? 
Did you find all the secret hats?
Which was your favorite hat and why?

And other such information.
Since I'll be making a wrap-up report about the event, it would be really nice to be able to include some user testimonials!
As a reminder: hats go back in their boxes at 23:59 UTC on 4 January 2013. Be sure to collect all your hats (and screencaps of gravatars) by then!

I have enjoyed them tremendously!
Secret hats I know of:

And I Feel Fine
n00b Hat
Gotta Catch 'Em All!
Shiver Me Timbers
The Abby
The Cake Is Not A Lie
Bushido
Epic Punyon Beard

or a round 8 (I grabbed 6 so far. Did I congratulate Punyon on his successful epic shave yet? :-P That other thing, that was his wife Laura, and like all mothers she has my awe and worship for that forever). I gathered 25 different hats so far, mostly because I am an answerer, not a question asker.
I loved all of the hats, especially those that fitted my little ninja so well; the crown is the one I wear most though:

but I looked dashing in almost anything:

Next year? Moar hats. Moar secret hats. Make us work for 'em!

A:

Would be awesome to have x,y offset and zoom percentage per hat.  And more non hats, with the ability to be able to wear more than one at a time.  Like mixing the stache and pipe with he fez.  Yeah.  

A:

I didn't really get involved (wish I had - although I did get a voting on Christmas day hat) but it was always odd that it was Winter Bash when it's summer here (Australia)! Christmas/Summer in Australia could have so many awesome hats, mostly involving beaches, shrimps, barbeques, drop bears...

What would you like to see for next year?

It not to be odd to half the (physical) planet
