I have hundreds of "participants" but it seems that nobody is interested in banners of ruin and legend of keepers. There is only 1 / respectively / 2 participants in the giveaway? I have read that low number of entries in a giveaway mean that it won't count towards the CV is that correct? Whats the limit?

To clarify "participants" - I shared a giveaway with a few groups and my whitelist. There should be like few hundreds of possible entries in the giveaways.

I will add some ppl to the whitelist to give them also a chance to win the game and close iit then so the unlucky group still has a pretty high chance :) sorry iam still new at this but it would be stupid to forfeit the CV points, since these are not giveaways in an inside circle of close friends :)

Contributor Value and Levels
[...]
If a giveaway is invite only, region restricted, or limited to a whitelist or Steam group, it will only add contributor value if it receives 5 or more entries. This is in place to prevent small groups of friends from attempting to cheat the contributor system, and to encourage users to expand the reach of their giveaways. The whitelist feature offers an easy way to target a larger audience, and you can combine it with small Steam groups to receive a greater number of giveaway entries if needed.

nobody is interested

I see that 3 days are left, so I'll be optimistic and say that maybe some are waiting for return of points, cuz spent all at some events and other giveaways, which end faster.

You are correct. You need at least five people. Those are games that have been bundles a few times, and most people probably already have it. If you do it open giveaways, it doesn't matter, since there are always people interested. But you with group/Whitelist it's a risk. I myself have a few giveaways for my Whitelist right now, and I don't have that many entries.
