Rate funny for RED/BLU and informative for Black Mesa.[/QUOTE]
Goddamit, even with all those informatives I still can't decide. Guess I'll go with the Black Mesa one because I'll order mostly TF2 things.

"Do Not Delay"
bah
I've been trying for 12 hours, but I just can't draw anything right. I think I'm nervous.
I held off on sending the games because I wanted to get a few nice drawings and some neat weapon ideas together too, but I just can't make my hands work. I was messing up all day with other stuff too, wiki editing and a fight with my girlfriend, I'm just gonna send them.
It feels like I'm wasting an opportunity but I can't do it.
ah well.
On the bright side, I should be able to borrow a cell phone camera from a friend. I'll have pictures of the autographs up in a couple weeks. I'm so excited for them.
Mailed my page to Valve. Probably wont see it again until next year. :v:

Valve time.
Some people do anything to get a response from Valve:

What the fuck is that.
Here's the back of the envelope I sent off to Valve:

I wrote it like that because I had to color it in with a crayon. then I realized, and wrote along the side in my gorgeous handwriting: "Wait... There are no children in Half-Life 2"

My heart dropped when I saw this in my mailbox.

WHATS INSIDE?

Oooh, was it an unusual?
It seems that the content in this thread is the main reason we never got HL2E3.
Valve is always busy signing things...
[QUOTE=T2DM;31299981]I sent Gabe an email a few days ago to see if I could get an autograph from him and the Half-Life and Portal teams for my birthday but he hasn't responded :([/QUOTE]
I got a response on friday from Alison Krey asking for my mailing address, wonder how long it'll take for whatever they are sending me arrives here.
I went to the post office today to get the mail.
To my surprise I saw a yellow card in the box. This means that there is something too large to fit in my mailbox, or there is more mail than can fit inside.
I thought maybe it was my sheet finally returned and signed, or maybe even a poster (OPTIMISM PRIME).
However, On closer inspection, it was not a the Yellow Card that signifies a package, but a reminder to vote for the local town board elections.
:saddowns:
I sent him a message a while back. He never responded, but I like to think he read it.

What is your favorite Valve game?
I know you're going to give me the standard PR answer "oh it's like choosing a best child", but I know you have a favorite child too (don't pretend you like Leopoldo Newell better than Gabe Jr.)
Can't wait to hear back from you (but I guess I'll have too)
P.S: how is episode 3 coming along?[/QUOTE]
Just got a package from Valve! It's Saxton Hale's Barbershop Action, signed by Gabe. Slightly crumpled in post, but still awesome.
Asked Valve if they could make an exception and ship my order to Hungary (they normally don't ship here), they said they will.
If I pay the extra $35 shipping fee. :suicide:

Extra as in I have to pay for the International shipping ($35) AND $35.
Sweet I got a Saxton Hale comic :D Thanks Valve!
Still nothing. Then again, I sent it on Thursday, so I really don't think it will be here until at least next week.
I got a Saxton Hale poster signed by Gabe Newell in the post today! Happy days!

How long did it take to ship? From when they told you they were shipping it.
[QUOTE=FlamingSpaz;31551506]How long did it take to ship? From when they told you they were shipping it.[/QUOTE]
I initially emailed them a few months back and gave them my mailing address then. I only got an email that it was sent on August 1st, and then it arrived yesterday.

:smith: Pretty much the same as me, except they emailed me on the 20th of July saying it has been shipped. I'll give it a month then give up waiting.
Just got two Saxton Hale covers signed by Gabe. Yay! Giving one of them to my friend!
Those Gabe autographs? It says Hale. My friend just looked at mine and pointed that out.
No, it's Gabe.
