People will hunt for the gem watcher hat and this will lead to a decreased quality of questions. To offset this, please add hats for casting downvotes on questions that stay closed or deleted after 4 days. This is especially a problem on Stack Overflow.

    In hindsight, it would probably be very easy to get hats for downvotes, probably much easier than for upvotes. I haven't cast any upvote today yet.

The trigger for the "I voted" hat has now been updated. The hat is now being awarded for both upvotes and downvotes (on open questions/answers).

Pic of the 'I voted' hat on the WB mini-site, with the description: "Upvote or downvote on any open question or answer."
