It was 50 points or something and you could get it for $1 along with 3 other games in the IndieGala bundle.

Does that revert all previous games of that type to 1p or do they still get away with the 50p for those who submitted before the change

Yes it does. :)
But only Ironclads got price reduced. Other games are still there being exploited.

But the contribuiton value has decreased as well? e.g: someone who has sent 2 keys for this game before the change have 100 bucks on contribuiton or 2$?

2$

now its when people go to... mediamarkt for example, and spend 10€ on 5 games of 2€ each, with value of 20€ on steam, so they get 100€ for contributors giveaways, and resell the physical games so they get real money too :)

no more cheating for contributor giveaways...meh

sometimes (quite often), there are offers, like they are clearing out stock or something, and sell games like bioshock, borderlands, etc at ridiculous prizes, and they usually have a steam key

There has always been ways to cheat the system, which is why I find this constributer value system less useful.

that is the point.
for example, blades of time is currently on sale at gamersgate, and im starting to see giveaways of this game... nothing will be done

100€ contribution for the price of 10€ - ok, on steam it will be like 110$ contribution at the price of 13$ but its not the matter really . There will be like 100 copies of those game on sale in shop, mostly bought by people that dont even know that SG exists.
lets now see indiegala, buy 4 gifts at happy hour for 1$ and have 4*75$=300$ contribution and its available for any1 (with Paypal ie.)
So spending 10€ at indie gala can give you over 3500$ contribution.
You dont see the difference in the scale?

Looks like the cheats have found another way to bypass this by submitting a giveaway for the individual Ironclad game (out of 5) making it 10P. I'd post the link but that would be considered calling someone out no?

I have Kangaroo Man. Just wanted to let people know how they went around the 1P to get more points.

Can someone explain to me this whole "Ironclads" fiasco and why it is only worth 1p now?

Cos people didnt obey the rules which is DONT UPLOAD SINGLE bundle keys and Iron Clads connection was worth 50 P and people where paying $1 so they changed value so that people cant cheat into Contributor giveaways !

But that's going to change back to normal after the bundle giveaway right?

No. Cause a lot of people has many spare bundles (for example, last week were many of IndieGala 3 and 4 giveaways with few keys each). If people will submit single keys - it will ruin contributors system.

A similar Ironclads case may be Frozen Synapse (25P), as seems Humble Frozenbyte Bundle provides individual key to active these games on Steam instead of an unique one (as for example in HIB 5).

Why the Ironclads game would be worth 50p in the first place, is still beyond me. Job well done, in any case.

i think its 1 point for each dollar it costs... since its a "collection" of 5 games, about 10bucks each, there you have it

Another example.... http://www.steamgifts.com/giveaway/6S9YD/ironclads-american-civil-war
All DLCs for Ironclads should be worth 1p.
