[QUOTE=doonbugie2;28379807]He sent me coal.[/QUOTE] Make torches.
I sent him an email, he's not replied :(
I wonder if he ever visited Facepunch..
I'd write him a message but I don't know what to say. I'll think it over throughout the corse of the day.
[QUOTE=SGNinja101;28379343]Sent email, Got reply from Arsenio - Signed mouse pad in the mail :D[/QUOTE] I gave my shipping address to him, but I'm not exactly sure what I'm getting... I do know it's signed!
[QUOTE=Nightsure;28345579]Wait so, what if we asked him for a certain "present", by this I mean Episode 3.[/QUOTE] He'd send you back a note that said "Delayed"
me: "If you die, the entire world would mourn for you. There is no one else on my mind i would go a bit crazy if they died. You make amazing video games. Long live valve and GabeN!" reply: I’d be somewhat put off as well.
Anybody have the pic of the email regarding a certain plush raccoon?
What a amazing guy, no wonder ep3 will take forever, he replies to emails AND owns a farm. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pZaY1jV96jI[/media]

[QUOTE=Valon Kyre;28381183]What a amazing guy, no wonder ep3 will take forever[/QUOTE] I bet Episode 3 will be like Duke Nukem Forever.It took 12 years to make.
Don't jizz your pants.
[QUOTE=NoobSauce;28381231]I bet Episode 3 will be like Duke Nukem Forever.It took 12 years to make.[/QUOTE] No, please, don't say that ;-; My dad and I played hl2 together when it was brand new and I was like 8, we played the episodes together, the hl2 series was about the only pc games we rely both enjoyed. By the time episode 3 comes out dad will probably not even be interested in pc games anymore ;-; And that's my super dramatic story for the day
I honestly believe that Gabe Newell shouldn't be made fun of in the way he is...sure, Valve isn't the best on releasing games in a timely fashion, but hey...it's not all Gabe's fault. Nice stuff like that mousepad that got autographed make me glad I'm a Valve fan.
Wow, I also have a mousepad like that, I told him I wanted his autograph and he sent it to Sweden. Inacio told me it was a forge but I never believed him, cool that a man does things like that. [img]http://img101.imageshack.us/img101/3562/portalmousepad.jpg[/img] Camera isn't the best though. Tip to OP, don't scratch off the signature, I got my mousepad about 7 moths ago and now I can only see half of what I could, I can still see what it says but it's more gray than black. Just be careful with it.
[QUOTE=Stupideye;28378370]How do you get a tour of the place?[/QUOTE] I sent an email to Gabe, and he forwarded it to someone who can arrange it.
Gabe needs a favour
Now I know what I want for my birthday next year.
[QUOTE=Tukimoshi;28371060]Sent an email last night, received a response today. :)[/QUOTE] Nice try
Let's see if we can get him to sign a $100 bill.
Definitely adding "take a tour of the Valve office" to my bucket list.
[QUOTE=qwerty000;28349103]Hmm I wonder what happens if I send Kotick an email like this[/QUOTE] "Hello moneybag! Thank you for saying you love Call of Duty! We've taken the liberty of charging your credit card in anticipation of the release of the news of Modern Warfare 3! For $30, you can see when and where it's being released! Thank you for your contribution. -your overlord" [img]http://cdn.themis-media.com/media/global/images/galleries/display/47/47362.jpg[/img]
We have the same desk.
[QUOTE=Wnd;28383106]Nice try[/QUOTE] What do you mean nice try? Would you like a screenshot of the email? [b]Edit:[/b] Here you go. [IMG]http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a274/Tukimoshi/gabenewell.jpg[/IMG]
[quote=email]Subject: Hello my very fat friend I am a prince in nigera, if you send me all of the profit you have made off of steam I will triple it, keep half, and send you the rest. You will go from being a very fat man, to a very rich fat man. I hope you accept my offer, and that episode 3 is not delayed because of this.[/quote] I hope I get a response :D
[QUOTE=mmavipc;28395897]I hope I get a response :D[/QUOTE]Idiot, you're gonna ruin it for the rest of us
[QUOTE=mmavipc;28395897]I hope I get a response :D[/QUOTE] You asshole.
That mousepad looks sweet Persionally, I would have liked a better angle of GLaDOS -- currently "she" looks like a bunch of white metal :| [QUOTE=mmavipc;28395897]I hope I get a response :D[/QUOTE] [IMG]http://img688.imageshack.us/img688/2614/arrrrgh.gif[/IMG] Edit: oh fuck you IE...
why did you do it gabe? why did you ruin portal 1 with all these radios and team fortress 2 with all these hats? My 2 favourite games that I myself bought are now ruined and I can't play them in their original state anymore.
Sell it on eBay and you'll be rich!
