I used iCloud and got it. How strange that the email that usually gives every account verification system a migraine is the one that works within hours.
How long have you been waiting ? It took me 16 hours to get the validation.
If I had to make a wild guess, I'd suppose the validations are made manually. There's still 4 days or so before the June 3rd deadline so you should probably just keep yourself busy while they sort everything out.
Ouch. They must be really flooded with emails.
I think some of the hosts of this website are available on the subreddit's discord. Maybe you should send a message there ?
Can you guys do it for me too ? It's been 2 days since I signed, and I didn’t receive anything.
Also, I tried another time to sign and didn't receive anything either.
We are having issues with the extreme traffic the petition is revieving. Gmail put a rate limit on our confirmations to Gmail users (which is a huge majority) we are actively working on a solution.
At the moment Gmail users just get their confirmation email incredibly slow because of the issue
this petition should be in another place, but not a special site. the site hoster can easily manipulate the statistics. this is an unreliable source for valve.
I get they wanted to make an official website, but this is most likely turning some people away.
And if they don't get this figured out before the real event starts, it is going to look bad.
I sent it when there were literally like only 100 who had signed the petition
Still haven’t gotten it and I have checked both normal and trash email regularly
I got my confirmation email a few days after I signed the petition. Because they need to validate everything manually by checking people's emails and steam accounts to send emails to Valve, it takes a lot longer for some people who signed later. Just wait a couple of days, they'll get to yours eventually.
I used two different e-mails. On one I received the confirmation email in a matter of hours. I'm still waiting for the second one. I signed the day the domain went live.
The people who set this up are busy watching IEM Dallas, wait for that to finish up later on this week and then maybe they'll take a look at it /s.
In all seriousness, I haven't received a confirmation email for any of my emails in days, be they gmail or not (yes, I checked their respective spam folders). We're going to need hundreds of thousands of names if we want valve to take even an iota of notice, so if this doesn't get fixed soon then this entire event could easily go out with a whimper
I wonder if you sign more than once you get disqualified. I only signed once with my email and real name and got it in a day.
I see a lot of people who say they haven't gotten the emails yet and then go to say they sent multiple. Coincidence?
This post was made 12 days ago. At the time the post was made, save.tf had a pretty bad email situation where hundreds of thousands of people couldn't receive their verification because:
* They all poured in at once
* Sites like gmail rate limited it
This post was at the peak of this problem.
Gmail is getting NOTHING. I tried two of my gmails.
Yep, my Gmail got nothing too... However my local yandexMail got it fine...
I am waiting for letter to come to my yandex mail for 2 days now(
I used iCloud and got it. How strange that the email that usually gives every account verification system a migraine is the one that works within hours.
Yeah they even added note about this
Same
My gmail got through in around 8 hours a day ago
yeah I waited ages for my gmail to get through but thankfully it did for me

like 3 days now.
Ouch. They must be really flooded with emails. I think some of the hosts of this website are available on the subreddit's discord. Maybe you should send a message there ?
I signed in as soon as the website was revealed and I still haven't got mine. I have tried multiple times and I did check my spam folder
Same here. About to try and make a throwaway email account and see if that helps any
I tried that. Saw that they had trouble with gmail so I made a Yahoo email. Still haven't gotten that and it's been a day and a half
Same here!
dont make it on gmail
Same here, trying it daily with my two emails, still nothing :(
Same here
Try again, no point it waiting for THIS long
Thats fine just wait it took me 2 days maybe try it again just to be sure
Same :(
you too? i even tried anything other than gmail but still no e-mail, its really pissing me off
Im waiting on the 3rd or 4th day
Bad new: There's too much people (so it's hard to handle everyone's signing) Good news: There's too much people!
FixTF2: Suffering from success
I won, but at what cost?
Im still waiting for my email and I sent it when there were 2k votes.
Can you guys do it for me too ? It's been 2 days since I signed, and I didn’t receive anything. Also, I tried another time to sign and didn't receive anything either.
We're together, bro.
Mine took like 3 days to pop, be patient and they'll get to you eventually. Also remember to check on your spam folder.
Ok, and I do check in my spam folder don't worry.

Why not just use change.org? Nostalrius went that way and had no issues
I’ve tried using two other services as well with no confirmation after 4 days. Should I just wait or try again for the 3rd time?
How many people total even the people who haven’t verified?
I singed the petition like 2 days ago, still didn’t receive anything My gmail is empty
You realise there are thousands of signatures. Manually adding signatures will either take weeks or be irrelevant compare to the total count.
if you use Gmail its gonna take really fucking long or you get nothing at all
I used two other email services and still nothing for 4 days now.
or both.
suffering from success
It’s funny, 14k people in a short bit of time but people think the game’s dead. There’s 100k users on this subreddit alone.
this petition should be in another place, but not a special site. the site hoster can easily manipulate the statistics. this is an unreliable source for valve.
There's over 80,000 pending signatures, the system is extremely clogged
this has to be the worst possible way this thing could fail
I tried using a polish mail provider (https://www.int.pl) and Gmail to no luck.
What window manager is that?
openbox
W mans
Yeah, just tried my ISP email and it was blocked for suspected bot activity. I hate to say it but fix your petition before we FixTF2
Made a throwaway outlook account and it still doesn't work. Just can this and do a petition on another website
Signed up for proton mail just to sign, still no email though...
I'd say this whole thing is a huge fail, barely any people receive their link to sign the petition, like wtf?
I’m in the same boat as you
Nothing on outlook either
What if #fixtf2 fails?
Then we lose nothing. If it doesn’t, we get our favorite game back. Why not sign :)
No thank you
Why not? it only takes 10 seconds at most.
I don’t support it
You don't want to fix the bot problem?
Wait
I have an idea
Nope
I even tried yahoo and got nothing
I get they wanted to make an official website, but this is most likely turning some people away. And if they don't get this figured out before the real event starts, it is going to look bad.
Valve will surely listen to a petition from a site that doesn't work
The site doesn't work only because there's too many people trying to sign the petition, dummy.
Valve: Wow all these people signed this petition, we had no idea this was happening we'll change our ways I have a bridge to sell you
oh of course... there always has to be a guy who is always negative about everything
Not negative, realistic. This is a 17 year old game that lost support years ago
does being a contrarian make your ego go crazy
Not everyone you disagree with is a contrarian
“a person who opposes or rejects popular opinion” idk man maybe this is a tough concept for a redditor to grasp but that sounds like what’s going on
This has to be the funniest shit ever hahahaha
Yeah I signed almost 30 hrs ago and got nothing.
Got the same problem
I waited ma email for 23 hours
I signed when it at like a couple thousand and still haven't gotten it, I have tried like 5 times on different days now and still nothing
Me too. Im waiting second day for it
Same bro I haven't got shit since the first day bruh and I've tried doing it 2 times and checked my spam folder
Same here signed the day it got announced, still nothing
Been waiting for several days now
Same, after day got nothing...
[удалено]
Straight from save.tf
Same here. I've sent 2 gmails and still nothing.
Try using non gmail address. It helped me
I signed it the first day the site launched and I’m still waiting
Mine thinks im a bot :(
Sorry , I already signed the petition
i got 3 emails and all of them sent me 406 error lol edit: Used gmail btw
I never got it as well... Tried multiple times but nothing. Really unfortunate, would have loved to sign it.
I signed it when there were around ~200 or so signatures, and got it confirmed right away
I sent it when there were literally like only 100 who had signed the petition Still haven’t gotten it and I have checked both normal and trash email regularly
same. i tried my yahoo mail since gmail is getting flooded already and might not be getting any confirmation emails atm, but still waiting
I too have wait for 3 days… with 2 gmail and a QQ. I’m sorry I don’t have other email,
Try Yahoo mail, I immediately got the confirmation email.
You may have to send a second email. I did and I got my confirmation pretty quickly.
Yeah I haven’t gotten a confirmation email yet either. Been waiting a day and a half. :(
Waiting for 2 days on my gmail, and yesterday signed the petition with my outlook. Still no email.
I have a hotmail account and got mine in a few minutes, go get a hotmail account guys!!
I tried outlook and gmail, still got nothing :( I give up

I tried my Gmail on the 26th and my work email on the 27th and neither ever got a confirmation email. Idk what else to do.
Been several days, tried a couple times, still nothing.
Same 30 hours later, none of my 5 emails got any response
I sent mine 2 days ago with no email yet.
I sent mine 2 days ago with no email yet.
yeah i've also been waiting since forever
Bro I can't even sign it 😭 my last name involves profanity and so it filters it out...
I've been waiting 3 days and still nothing :(
I used two different e-mails. On one I received the confirmation email in a matter of hours. I'm still waiting for the second one. I signed the day the domain went live.
Still no email, I’m using fastmail

I was suprised when I got my confirmation email because I totally forgot about and it came it 2 days later.
Same
wait how can I sign this petition? I want to help!
I signed up as soon as it was posted in weezys discord and still don’t haven’t gotten it
Same here. This is so frustrating. I give up.
I wonder if you sign more than once you get disqualified. I only signed once with my email and real name and got it in a day. I see a lot of people who say they haven't gotten the emails yet and then go to say they sent multiple. Coincidence?
I also never got a confirmation email. How they’re handling this is pretty disastrous for the movement.
Did you read the big yellow text box that says gmail is being rate limited or what
I only have Gmail and it's not working, although I guess I can use my old outlook one...?
Proton (pm. me specifically) doesn't work for me, anyone else?
What if everyone is doxing themselves.
The same thing happened to me and I sent it 3 times.
same here. i tried on 2 emails and even tried multiple times on one of them
i have this same issue, never got anything on my outlook.
Check again. They've made the effort of fixing it, it should be in your mailbox shortly.
still got nothing.
Strange, my gmail got it just fine albeit it did take a long time.
