Am I wrong for immediatly thinking "The man with the Golden Wrench..."

(Please tell me someone gets the reference!)
Yeah. Oddly enough, one of the people that's found the wrench according to valve goes by the steam friends name "The man with the golden wrench".

I saw someone get a wrench earlier. The jealousy coursing through my blood is, at this moment, unrivalled.
But, hey! New shotgun comin' out! Coolio!

Not sure I agree with the whole "lager-pickled idiots" generalisation, but it's nice to get a bit of attention down here :)

That, and the girl with the moustache and a pet kangaroo in page 9 [http://www.teamfortress.com/loosecanon/09.html] was just pure absolute gold Australium.
I really love the way Valve likes to take the piss outta us. It really is like what the comic says its like in Australis for all of you in other countries. our women are so much woman they have moustashes.

Oh God I want that wrench. I've been crafting my butt off trying to get one, and now I'm only down to a few items. WHY ME!?

It would be HOO-LARIOUS if the Golden Wrenches were made normal unlockables after the update. I doubt it would happen though.

I've also heard one Wrench went out to someone who just started the Game.

Thanks for the mention!

Considering I'm comeing late to the party, it seem's they'res about 40 some odd wrench's about now.

Still, interesting stuff is about in the TF2 universe.

I'm not going to Team Fortress 2 for a while now, possibly until September. The Demo-Soldier war taught me one thing: wait for the rush of people to die down before joining.

If it's worth anything, you guys have managed to outpace us, technology wise...

If that counts for anything...

Also, apperantly the first person who got a wrench was an infamous hacker.

He was promptly Vac-banned.


Gotta love the steam forums some times.

Only five were supposed to drop? Does this sound like a Willy Wonka/Golden Ticket sort of thing to anyone?

EDIT: Maybe the 5 people who got it would get all the engineer unlocks for free, or a trip to Valve offices, or something.
Man, I was about to say that those 5(16) lucky wielders of the Golden Wrench will receive a tour to the Engineers Factory! Darn you!! :p

Turns out that was just a coincidence I suppose- They're giving away 100 of them now.

ME WANT GOLDEN WRENCH!

How do I get one without hacking!?!?!?!?!
It's heavily implied you get one randomly when you craft something... I plan on logging on tomorrow and crafting down every single spare item I have in hopes of getting one!

That is one of the funniest things I've heard in a long time.
