[QUOTE=Maruhai;35658936]So who should I email, should I just send it to [email]marym@valvesoftware.com[/email] or should I use another adress ? Okay thanks, how long is it going to take before you recieve it ?[/QUOTE] Mine shipped in a week.

I received awesome swag today, will upload images later.

Just sent my mail, let's see how it goes.

Sent a pencil sketch of Gordon Freeman about two days ago, just got a response that Gabe signed it and is sending it back. Thus begins the waiting game.

I asked Mary to send a friend of mine a CS:GO key, someone I've been really wanting to play CS:GO with for ages. My friend just got it today! Super-excited! Now I get to pretend I know what I'm doing while getting dominated by them. YAY! :D I really can't emphasize enough how amazingly awesome Mary is. If you're reading this, THANK YOU MARY!

sent a nice email about how valve has changed my view of the gaming industry as a whole(which it has) and has changed my mind on my original decision of NOT getting into the development industry.

Sent some poses I did a few days ago, Mary says she's gonna put one on the wall and asked if she could send me something. :dance:

I sent a little picture I drew in Paint.net. Mary has offered to get it signed and posted to me. Shes so incredibly nice.

What's Mary's email anyway?

How many days does she usually take to answer ? It's been two days already and I just want an answer. [IMG]http://sae.tweek.us/static/images/emoticons/frown.gif[/IMG]

[IMG]http://sae.tweek.us/static/images/emoticons/frown.gif[/IMG][/QUOTE] Just be patient. She's probably busy trying to figure out where Chet's hiding so Valve can get back to work.

I mailed VALVe few times, but they never answered me :( That might mean, that my step brother is Bad luck Brian... ^^ Or my mails were too stupid, i don't know. Can't find those mails, but i remember, that in a first I asked about Meet the pyro, second was cow mangler kill icon fix and the third just a response about hatconomy and other stuff. Anyway, I think that VALVe is a company that reads much more mails than the others :)

Still no response from Michelak, see my previous post up there. Man, I've never gotten a response from Valve :C

My brother emailed Mary to send me something for my birthday. Yes!

Emailed Front desk two times already, One yesterday, and one two weeks ago. This time I sent Mary a Shark picture. She likes sharks right, or was it dolphins?

Fuck, I mean, I'm happy with my Saxton Hale Comic with Gabe's signature on it, but why is it that as soon as I get something cool, everyone else gets a FUCKton of shit?

Oh, then I probably shouldn't have sent her a lovable cartoon shark from the 1960s... Still no reply though, Valve never replies to my emails, maybe it's because I email them at 2:00 Am while on the weekends.

How long does it usually take to get a response from Gabe and/or Mary?

Ok i've not been reading this thread for a while, who the heck is mary?

I tried giving the key to a friend of mine and he said the key didn't work. I emailed Mary and I haven't gotten a response. Oh well, I like the mousepad anyways.

had a chat with Phil Co about how he got to Valve and what courses I should take in college [img]http://puu.sh/so3t[/img] Good to hear they really do value multi-skilled people.

Not too much, but Mary was pleased, at least :) [img]http://i.imgur.com/XJAKd.png[/img]
