*When the Mann Co. store first came out, they were sold for 1 for $0.99. Should this be mentioned as trivia?

Let me get this straight. You level up one level for every 10 wins, and one duelling 'pack of 5' costs $0.99. And to get the final duelling badge, you need to be level 75, which is 750 duelling wins. That means, to get the final badge, you would have spent almost $150 on duels! Wow.

Not necesarily, you can still win duels that you where challanged to and the item can be found by drops. --[[User:Tribestone|Tribestone]] 15:43, 2 October 2010 (UTC)
 
 
 
 
 
Plus the badge starts at level 1 so that's 740 wins.
 
I've noticed the page says that the item will be refunded twice, don't know if that should be changed. [[User:Jayzak|Jayzak]] 09:38, 3 October 2010 (UTC)
 
if you want to use the dueling mini game without the "action" feature, normally you just go into your inventory ( easy way is just by pressing 'N' by default in game) click the item, then press the "use" button, and then lastly choose your opponent
 
 
 
i got one of these...'don't know how to use it while in the game though. However, i DO know how to equipped it in a loadout... --[[User:Awesome Weegee|Awesome Weegee]] 03:39, 4 October 2010 (UTC)
 
 
 
Not sure where the information on here came from, but some of it is incorrect/incomplete. It says you earn medals by winning, but you get the first medal for your first duel, win or lose. It also says the badge "must" be equipped, but that is not true either, you can go into your backpack and simply select it and select "Use" ("Use with" changes to "Use" when you select the duel item) and it functions the same way, so you don't have to go through and have it equipped on every class.

== Generalities ==
 
 
 
Now that the Duel minigame can be dropped from crates, we have something to test: an uncrated duel minigame has one (random drop) or five (purchased) uses?
 
 
 
And the page says "Every time you level, you get a random item along with a single use 'Dueling Mini-Game'": This is everytime you level your badge (10 wins) or level its quality (250 wins)?
 
 
 
Since I lack one (or 48) duel minigames I can't test it myself.

:It's an item drop per badge level. That's one per 10 wins. [[User:Vercci|Vercci]] 12:16, 8 October 2010 (UTC)
 
 
 
::Seems you can even get a hat from duel rewards. I was rather surprised when I saw this last night. [http://i.imgur.com/fQngJ.png imgur.com/fQngJ.png] -- [[User:Tarun|Tarun]] 16:45, 25 October 2010 (UTC)
 
 
 
:::I suspected so, thats why I said drop instead of a weapon. It would just be very rare. [[User:Vercci|Vercci]] 07:01, 28 October 2010 (UTC)
 
== Kicked from server? ==
 
 
 
What happens when a dueller is kicked from the server? Does it count as an involuntary disconnect or as the player leaving?
 
* If disconnect: admins can avoid losses by kicking the player before the duel ends.
 
* If leaving: admins can easily win duels by kicking adversaries. [[User:Dzjudz|Dzjudz]] 06:09, 20 October 2010 (UTC)
 
:I'm going to say disconnect, but it's an interesting one. Perhaps an experiment is in order? {{n}}[[User:Smashman|<span class="bur">Smashman</span>]]<sub>&nbsp;([[User_talk:Smashman|talk]])</sub> {{bur}} 06:33, 20 October 2010 (UTC)
 
:: I have some duels I don't mind losing, if someone here is an admin of any servers [[User:Scatmanjohn|Scatmanjohn]] 15:12, 20 October 2010 (UTC)
 
:: I already tested it with a friend. The kicked player loses, the remaining player wins. Can be abused by evil admins! Then again a cheating admin is a good excuse to blacklist a server. ;) --[[User:Ailure|Ailure]] 18:59, 20 October 2010 (UTC)
 
:::I got kicked from a server whilst in a duel, for some reason I didn't lose. It just ended up saying that the duel was not consumed due to me being kicked. [[User:CWalkthroughs|Corkscrew]] 15:37, 28 November 2010 (UTC)
 
::::On this topic, it probably shouldn't be listed as a bug if a duel is canceled and refunded after a duelist is kicked. That was probably intended to prevent abuse by home-fielders. Certainly kicking them to ''prevent'' a loss is an abuse, but at least it doesn't come at the cost of that player's duel use and record. [[User:Chronomaster|Chronomaster]] 06:45, 6 June 2011 (UTC)
 
::::: I agree. Can't say it any better than Chronomaster did. [[User:SilverHammer|SilverHammer]] 06:54, 6 June 2011 (UTC)
 
::::: Changing it then. Certainly looks intentional. [[User:Secret Agent Clank|Clank]] 21:23, 22 July 2011 (PDT)
 
 
 
== Found a bug!  DUELING MINI-GAME DOESN'T WORK AFTER 1 IS USED. ==
 
 
 
I'm talking about the the USE button that's assigned. After you use up all five games for 1 item, the USE key doesn't work anymore, even when using another mini-game. It only works after you reconnect to a server. It makes having consecutive matches a pain.

== this worth noting? ==
 
I noticed when I use Ctrl alt del during a duel, and exit the game that way, the duel is not used.  That worth noting? [[User:Thespy|Thespy]] 04:05, 28 January 2011 (UTC)
