Spirit Of Giving/pt

We strapped an actual decommissioned Soviet-era x-ray machine to several team members' chests, and trust us, the science checks out: The people in our experiment with the biggest hearts were in fact the nicest guys on staff. How do we know? You should have seen how many people showed up at their funerals.
The TF2 Team on generosity

The Spirit of Giving is a cosmetic item for all classes. It is a small grey x-ray machine attached to each class's chest. The machine has a green, phosphorescent screen featuring a beating heart and bubbles.

This item was distributed to all players who had logged in during the Australian Christmas 2011 event and had further logged in during or after the Atualização de 21 de dezembro de 2011. Premium members were also given a Secret Saxton, in addition to the Spirit of Giving.

This item tracks the number of gifts distributed by the player via Secret Saxtons, Piles o' Gifts, Random Robo Community Crate Key Gifts, and Piles of Robo Community Crate Key Gifts. Each gift given increases the counter displayed.

Ranks

The current rank title forms the prefix of the item name; e.g. a Spirit of Giving with three gifts given appears as "The Competent Contributor's Spirit of Giving". This process is similar to the process of Strange weapons: not only does levelling up in ranks upgrade the item's title, the 'heart' shown also increases in size. Consequently, the heart is not visible if a player has never gifted any gifts.

Although the Pile o' Gifts is capable of granting 23 gifts to players in the server in a single use, the counter only increases to the amount of gifts distributed. As such, if the server has only 10 connected players, not counting the user, only 10 gifts are granted and the count only increases by 10.

Atualização de 2 de março de 2021

  • [Indocumentado] Renamed the "Spirit Of Giving" to the "Spirit of Giving".

Bugs

  • The green part of the screen on the model is still visible while the player is cloaked as a Spy.
  • The Mann Co. Catalog describes the item's rank as being incremented by the number of duels (from the Dueling Mini-Game), instead of the number of gifts granted.
  • A Secret Saxton bug causes the initial user of the item to receive the gift, a current definite cause is to be on a completely empty server and use one. No item is inside, but the Spirit of Giving still updates its gift count.
  • Occasionally, the heart on the screen may disappear.
  • Inspecting an equipped Spirit of Giving of any player who has never given a gift shows the item type as being "The Badge". This is because on a technical level, the Rank 0 prefix is defined as "The" as a way to work around the fact that any leading "The" is only applied if the item in question is of the Unique quality.

Trivia

  • The item is a reference to the Dr. Seuss story How the Grinch Stole Christmas!, whose title character is born with a heart two sizes too small, but when he gives Christmas presents to the Whos of Whoville, his heart grows three sizes.
  • Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is the medical term for thickening and growth of the heart.
