I gave away 57P worth of games earlier today, and my contribution level got capped at 30 dollars. I just gave away 10P more and I'm still at 30 dollars. What gives?

When you are making giveaways, try reading all the text on that page, about games marked with a *, which are bundle titles, and have a CV cap that will only raise by giving non bundled titles.

I don't understand how is it easier to post about it on the forum than reading what you are doing...

I read the stupid thing. How is Serious Sam 2 worth zero dollars, even if it came from a bundle. I thought it added 20% of it's value? And I didn't even get it from a bundle...

The cap is 20% of your total value or 30P. As soon as you giveaway a non-bundle game, SS2 will be "worth" something.

Doesn't matter where you got your game from, if it's listed as a bundle game on SGifts, then it counts as a bundle-game.

Also, bundle games cap out at $30, to increase this; gift non-bundle games.

  • You didn't read the text properly. You don't get 20% of each game, but 20% of your non bundle game value. The first $25 was tallied normally, then you got another 20%. $5 more.

  • Bundle status stays on any game that has been bundled, as no matter how you give it away, the site doesn't have an easy way to know how you are giving it away.

I agree with the bundle game cap but this argument is just stupid. I didn't pay full price for the major majority of non bundle games I gave away and I'm guessing most people are the same.

There is a difference between paying 3,75 - 5 euro for a 20 euro game and paying 1euro for 3 x 20 euro games tho.

Also, there's a difference between making giveaways for games you can afford to buy and give away because they were on sale and you felt generous, and attempting to strategize ways to artificially raise your CV by buying bundles for the cheapest you can get em.

Btw i wonder how many ppl would ever contribute for the first time if they know what the "*" (Asterix) means in the Game-List.
