[QUOTE=Chezhead;35546150]Just email the front desk telling them what days you would be available to take a tour, and they'll say what time and the address of the place. The office is actually a bit secret and has no outside sign or such saying where it is. The building's directory does not even list it, so you need to go through them.[/QUOTE] I will go through them.

I was kinda worried about my stuff being caught by our mail system then I sent her this: [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/FFB5e.jpg[/IMG] She then answered: [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/iUK8a.jpg[/IMG] Awesome!

I sent them an e-mail on Friday and I haven't gotten any package. Odd

So, I heard Mary likes dolphins.. [img]http://yeyfiles.net/941144559/533456_3754039649052_1218264447_33719585_546534646_n.jpg[/img]

It's been 10 days. my excitement is off the charts

They sent me a Dota 2 mouse pad and Aperture sticker. Pretty awesome, I was in need of a mouse pad.

We should all ask Mary random questions, and compile all the facts into a list. Just because.

Received my autograph today: (didnt want to make a long post so here are just the links) [url]http://i.imgur.com/LlVQp.jpg[/url] [url]http://i.imgur.com/JH4uV.jpg[/url] [url]http://i.imgur.com/RR46U.jpg[/url]

[QUOTE=iWhatIsLove;35563123]not creepy at all[/QUOTE] Exactly! :eng101:

Is this too forward? [QUOTE]Not sure who I was supposed to send this to, so hopefully this gets to the right person! If it's possible, could I get something with Gabe's signature on it? I'm not picky; it could be on the back of your lunch napkin or underneath that old and outdated Episode 3 script that's lying around, collecting dust. I'm sure no one would miss [I]that.[/I] Anyways, I would just love to have a signature from one of my heroes in gaming. Gabe's a busy guy, so I understand that he can't read all of his emails. I thought I'd try someone else who works with him. If you could help me, or point me to Gabe's signature assistant, it'd be much appreciated. Thanks Mary.[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE=richard9311;35572316]Is this too forward?[/QUOTE] It will get blocked by the Episode 3 Filter (Joking! THey don't have one ...[I]or do they?[/I]...)

Especially considering you live in a country they ship to.

Jesus that's big. Could you thumb it so I don't have to open in a new page to see it entirely? [t] or [thumb] tags

Mary answered to me within a couple hours. But to be honest guys, you all want this stuff because... [img]http://www.emezeta.com/weblog/memes/its-free.png[/img]

So I wrote an email last weekend about a little typo on de_train in CS:GO since everything's written in russian on that map and also asked how the whole Blizzard vs Valve trademarking Dota thing went. [B]She didn't reply to any of that,[/B] instead she asked if I wanted the poster (that I asked for quite some time ago) or a dota 2 key. Went with the poster, even though I have a shitton of them already (bought those fuckers from valve store). And at some point Mary replied with: [IMG]http://filesmelt.com/dl/valve1.png[/IMG] [i]"that message was the closest I ever got to banging a chick"[/i]

[img]http://www.emezeta.com/weblog/memes/its-free.png[/img][/QUOTE] I want this stuff because it's Valve. If I wanted free stuff I would be taking every single free thing I see from the internet. They're willing to give [B]you[/B] stuff because [B]you[/B] are the fan here, and they want you to be a fan. I'm with Starscre4M too, they don't ship over here.

So how do I get a CSS wallpaper?

[QUOTE=TomZa;35592173]swag [t]http://www.imgur.com/0zBBB.jpg[/t] i love mary[/QUOTE] That's cool. They don't even sell that one on the store page. Makes me wonder if they still have any discontinued shirts left over.
