Time to read up on how bundles work, as mentioned in the FAQ and on the giveaway creation page.

I wonder why people are so against bundle giveaways. During the time the bundle is active anyone can buy it, true. But many of us have missed out great bundles and great bundled games. And we're happy to enter for them.

Nothing wrong with them, just with people who don't read a single warning or FAQ before complaining. The giveaway creation page itself tells you about this now, but people still ignore it, while rubbing their hands at the thought of entering high CV giveaways with only a dollar or two spent.

Well, I for example can't afford but bundled and heavily discounted games. Thus I also won't give away anything else. So I'm guessing my CV won't ever go past $30...

Should it have the same value as an user that did not give away heavily discounted games?

Using the same logic, I could buy a 90% discounted non-bundle game and still get full CV value. But after the discount is over, the game is back to full price. And anyone wanting to buy it from there will have to pay full price.

Someone who spends their time and energy to find something at an unusually low price so that he or she can sell it somewhere else/give it away at a higher price is called a merchant. Such practice is allowed in most places. Abuse, on the other hand, is not. If a merchant seizes all of the (virtually) free merchandise in an area and then sells it at an artificially high price, it amounts to "a monopoly" or "price gouging" or various other forms of oppression which are frowned upon.

To prevent abuse, the CV for bundles is calculated differently.

You just avoided to answer the question, meaning we both know the answer to it.

You could buy 90% discount games and give them away. Why don't you? You do know that 90% discount games are not added to the bundle list, right?

Also there, is a huge difference between a 90% discount and a 99% discount, like in the current Humble Bundle.

I've bought and given bundle games that get me nothing as far as CV goes, made a bunch of people happy. I've given more than $40 people a copy of Fortix. CV means bugger all if you aren't going for thousands. You get good giveaways by being a decent and popular person and getting invited to groups and privates, which isn't likely given what you are letting people see at this point.

Also, delete the Origin giveaway, you can't use that here.

I remember when I was about 7 yrs old or so and we were playing baseball. The kid pitching hit the kid batting and the kid batting got hit by a bad throw from the kid pitching. The kid batting starts crying and whining and even though off throws happen in baseball all the time the batting kid throws a tantrum and yells "I am going home and I am taking my baseball" he picked up his ball and ran home. Like a child. Are you wondering why I post this story?

Because I am wondering if you were the kid batting and you still don't get it.

So the only reason you give is to boost your CV? Most of your giveaways are bundles too. Yeah, you know what, good. We don't need scammers like you gaming the system anyways.

You've created mostly bungle GA, so your CV will only go up to an amount until you give away games that are not from bundles.
