[img]http://img.gawkerassets.com/img/19cniyeuv2l6qjpg/ku-xlarge.jpg[/img] [QUOTE]A guy posts on Reddit with the username GabeNewellBellevue. People ask him to prove it's the man who runs one of gaming's biggest companies. The result: the picture you see above you.P Backstory here is that Newell's backing a car competing in the Heart of Racing charity event. The head of Valve submitted a link to the popular r/Gaming sub-Reddit to get the word out. But, apparently, his link got no upvote love there. Thankfully, his submission got some traction on r/Motorsports, where he was asked to provide evidence that he was the guy who flips the switches on Steam sales.P [/QUOTE] [url]http://kotaku.com/gabe-newell-posts-on-reddit-gaming-gets-ignored-1502162961?utm_campaign=Socialflow_Kotaku_Facebook&utm_source=Kotaku_Facebook&utm_medium=Socialflow[/url] [img]http://img.gawkerassets.com/img/19cnk13uqfa2ppng/ku-xlarge.png[/img] [img]http://img.gawkerassets.com/img/19cnjd7lcia29png/ku-xlarge.png[/img] Link to r/Motorsports thread (where Gabe is also answering questions): [url]http://www.reddit.com/r/motorsports/comments/1v85hy/the_heart_of_racing_new_team_competing_in_uscc/[/url] Picture of the car: [img]http://theheartofracing.org/public/images/gallery/3.jpg[/img]
that photo is the epitome of sadness
Oh that's sick! Another thing to look for while watching the race. Last year was a very good race, can't wait for this year since there will be a combo of Grand-AM and ALMS cars since they merged and are USCR now.
he looks so down :(
[QUOTE=Hunterdnrc;43551036]that photo is the epitome of sadness[/QUOTE] Makes you think, though, Gabe certainly looks old
His expression tells a thousand words.

Oh my god Gabe please trim up you look like an older TheAmazingAtheist.

[QUOTE=Swiket;43551069][img]http://i.imgur.com/L8iWr2r.png[/img] Gabe doesn't like your jokes :([/QUOTE] I feel bad about every "It was worth the weight" or similar joke I've said or laughed at :c
[QUOTE=ChestyMcGee;43551140]what a cool idea. shame it's such a boring circuit. i'd love to see this team come and compete in some of the european endurance races[/QUOTE] Its not just one circuit, its a good bit and he says he'll be at [url=http://www.imsa.com/series/united-sportscar/schedule]all of them[/url]
[QUOTE=Reagy;43551094]Don't blame him, both are pretty shit.[/QUOTE] I'm pretty sure he doesn't care about the fat jokes. At the end of the day, he's worth $1 billion and they are not.

My two loves: Motorsports and PC gaming. I'll be sure to watch this team in the races to come.

[QUOTE=Eltro102;43551276]idk dude [IMG]http://fabmagazineonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/Screen-Shot-2014-01-14-at-01.20.20.png[/IMG][/QUOTE] It's simple to give out a single example of an individual, you have rich people committing suicide too, you know? Whatever, completely off-topic.
His r/gaming posts were being auto-nuked by the modbot for being off-topic, because he was posting about motorsports in r/gaming (Gabe Newell is on-topic for r/gaming, but not some car race, ordinarily). That's why nobody saw them, they got instantly buried.
In the same thread he [url=http://www.reddit.com/r/motorsports/comments/1v85hy/the_heart_of_racing_new_team_competing_in_uscc/ceqku50]said he'd do an AMA if they raised more than $500k[/url]
[QUOTE=JCDentonUNATCO;43551101]Oh my god Gabe please trim up you look like an older TheAmazingAtheist.[/QUOTE] nah the beard's fine, he looks better with it than without. The problem is that haircut. Not like it matters when you've already got a wife and kids and a fucking beach house
He looks so sad... And old... This makes me realise that Gabe N. will die within my lifetime.
