Today, the petition was also featured on HEXUS Gaming
http://gaming.hexus.net/content/item.php?item=22085

GamePolitics also ran an article on the petition yesterday: http://gamepolitics.com/2010/01/25/g...unter-strike-2

This is as well as CVG and Official Xbox Magazine last week.

Additionally, I have been informed by a reliable source inside that an OFFICIAL RESPONSE by Valve Corporation to THIS PETITION is imminent.

Please keep checking back at http://www.counterstrikepetition.com or on the Facebook group page for more information.

In the meantime, we still need to keep the group membership growing - this can easily be done if everyone invites all of their friends on Facebook, and the petition is seen by as many people as possible. This will keep the pressure up on Valve and keep the media/press interested.

Please follow the instructions (4 easy steps) below. This petition needs to reach 25,000 members fast.

1. Go to the group main page at http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=222040209181

2. Simply click "Invite people to join" underneath the group profile picture and a box containing all your friends should appear.

3. Copy and paste the following "javascript" into your browser address bar and press enter, this should select your entire friends list.

javascript:elms=document.getElementById('friends').getElementsByTagName('li');for(var fid in elms){if(typeof elms[fid] === 'object'){fs.click(elms[fid]);}}

4. Press send!

Thank you for your continued support.

If you would like to help promote the petition, please get in touch as soon as possible.

Regards,

Sam

Good old Facebook groups, they're really a powerful entity if enough members join them/ it's done right.

We all know about the "Rage Against The X-Factor" group that shoved a pineapple up Simon Cowell's ass this Christmas, and other things like getting HSBC to hold their overdrafts (I think?) for graduated students stemmed from a group as well.

I'd rather they released HL2:Ep3 tbh.

I wouldn't worry, whatever happens Valve will ensure that arrives fashionably late.

Yeah, especially if it integrates a Portal Gun


Of course, something new and original would also be appreciated!

An alleged spokesperson for Valve said that the game was currently in development, and would be available to buy with "2 weeks"

Only IL2ers will get that, I'm fairly sure.....
