Here is my Entry:
no reply from robin as of yet
i hope i win!
( yes, it is a joke )
EDIT:
i sent it by email if your wondering what this has to do with emailing valve.
Just went on my tour of valve. Saw Gabe walking around but didn't get the chance to talk to him. It was a fairly large group we were with so they tried to rush us along a bit. I saw a comic they are working on for dota2 and some concept art for heroes. I even got to go to the snackbar and see Gabe's knife collection. It was a nice way to end my PAX trip. Everyone got a small swag bag too.
What'd you get?
A portal shirt and some other stuff. Not much because there were a lot of pax goers on tour as well but it was still nice.
I'm jealous
:smithicide:
How old were the guys that were on a tour with you?
Varying from 16-30+. I'm 18.
Quick tip: Do not send group emails to Valve asking for stuff. I got four replies. Then again, four times the stuff!
talk about taking advantage of things

Of course it was. Why did you even need to ask? Every Valve video is made in Source Filmmaker.
Because I couldn't believe it. (which it says in the mail if you would have read it properly)
But it's a fact. Believe it or not, it didn't deserve an email to Gabe.
When I looked at the trailer I simply did not believe that it was rendered in-engine. I was reminded of this today and sent him a mail. The trailer looks way better than any other Valve trailer/Meet The xxx that I've ever seen. I really don't get what the problem is here. It's not like it says "Made with Source Filmmaker" at the end.
EDIT: It also serves as a compliment towards Valve mentioning how unbelievable it looks. Nothing wrong with that.
Oh boy, here we go again
Just received my stuff, A L4D mousemat and a Saxton Hale poster. I feel like such a dick for sending them some fan art as well, with my address inside...
Gabe Newell isn't fat.
It's just the size of his heart.
The "I EMAILED SOMEBODY AT VALVE!" Thread V2-Look at all the free stuff I coerced VALVe to give me!
One of the best posts in this thread.
Maaaan, I want to see Gabe's knife collection. It ought to be good.
They say his knifes are like a Gurkha's sword.
Once they are unsheathed he can't put them away until he sends someone a mousemat.

poster
"Episode 3 announced for release next week"
Just got that in the mail today! Was shocked!
Sent him a message asking if everybody working at VALVe can answer e-mails, or if it's just like a job there. Sent it last night. No reply yet.

Eugh Not funny.
