Timmy's going to hire a hitman to take out Gabe because he's eternally seething at EGS failing to take market share from Steam.

Tbh this thing sounds like that very much. It may not be an assassination attempt at all, ut the ridiculous rules to "show face when speaking so we can see how do you feel about what you say" is very much bullshit in this scenario. A proper written essay about the working of Valve would suit the questions way better than having someone put in person in a limited time to answer things out of mind under pressure.
