Did you see the post where he quoted what Robin actually said? Hilarity.

Quote:
This is Robin Walker, from Valve. The rest of us at Valve would sure appreciate a couple of days without Erik around, so thanks for organising this!

Quick question though: if I donated more, would you buy a one-way ticket for him?

Robin.

$100 from Robin Walker of Valve Software
My last post, suggesting that perhaps Batman's trusty sidekick Robin had donated to our cause, was made in error - for there can now be no doubt that the real Robin has contributed. The incredible Robin Walker of Valve Software, that is! He attached the following message:

This is Robin Walker, from Valve. The rest of us at Valve would sure appreciate a couple of days without Erik around, so thanks for organising this!

Quick question though: if I donated more, would you buy a one-way ticket for him?

Robin.



Thanks, Robin!

Wait so I dont really know the whole story. So I know 2 people got flown to Valve since they were part of the boycott. But what is with this guy? He is just doing a campaign that's is supposedly good or something?

Basically, he's a bit of a Valve fan, sending e-mails to Gabe and the like. However, he never got an invite to visit Valve. Enter the L4D2 boycott, enter the leaders of said boycott into Valve HQ, enter that email in Gabe's inbox. So, now he's raising money to give Gabe and Erik two tickets to his home country, presumably to show off his custom L4D campaign and/or to try to blag a trip back to Valve HQ.

This idea is made of win.
