I'm curious how many H'ween are left in game. I feel like there are still a significant amount of RSH in circulation but I don't see "a ton" of H'weens.

H'ween has historically been the cheapest wearable rare (compared to phats, santa, ect), and likely due to it being the most in circulation, but idk if that holds true today still.

Assuming on the 2001 christmas event there were 32 spawn locations for christmas crackers every minute and assuming that it was always picked up by a player there would have been 46,080 crackers on release. Assuming that 95% of those were pulled by a player, using the numbers provided by mod ash about the rarity of the hats we get about 4,378 purple, 6,566 blue, 8,755 green, 10,068 white, 12,257 yellow and 14,008 red from the event at a minimum. With the dupe sending purple to the bottom of the price value back in time, while still retaining some value, I would guess the dupe added 10k purples and probably 1k of the other types. Over time through inactivity, permanent keepsaking, hoarding etc... I would say all hats are around 10% of their original numbers so we would can assume at a minimum there are still actively at least:

1438 Purple
757 Blues
976 Green
1107 White
1326 Yellow
1501 Reds

Was there only one server back then?

I can't say for sure how many servers there were when the Christmas crackers dropped, but I can say for sure that there were several servers a few months later when I started on my original main account in 2002. I don't remember how many servers there were but I want to say around 10+? I know for sure more than 5 and this seems kind of low. This was also after members was introduced.

I would assume there was more than 1 server for the cracker drop. I played on the day h ween masks dropped and they weren't dropped every minute. It was either on the hour or in 30min intervals. I also would guess crackers dropped the same way, but I can't say for sure since I wasn't there.

I only included 32 spawns p/minute because I think there probably were more, but 32 is the smallest number I could come up with (it was a holiday event meant to give every player who played on christmas a full set) Mass contributor to deaths coffers.

I wish they would just give us the true quantity of each rare tbh

If they did rares would crash, there's way more than people think, just hoarded and kept out of circulation. they are rare but not as much as people like to think. i am not sure about party hats but there's a decent number of lower rares in game from what i have seen and traded the last few years.

Maybe they have not done so because they truly do not know?

They do know accurate number, it says in their files for each rare item. There is just dispute between active, non-active and banned accounts but with little work they can include that too.
