since i'm still a newbie here (yet, don't judge me)... this kinda thing (not thinking what caused it but the level down itself) is kinda frequent, isn't it?

CV tool is wrong about your How to Survive - Storm Warning giveaways.
It shows them as full value giveaways, but you gave them away on the day it was considered bundled (except the last 2 copies)

So you are saying that Steamgifts calculated it wrong last couple of months and now they are corrected it?

Yes. Usually it is added to the bundle list faster, but sometimes the bundler miss a game and it is only added later. Any game that is available in a bundle or get a very high discount (95% or more) will be added to the list sooner or later.

It would appear they moved the "bundled" date. Oh well I was gonna make some giveaways anyway, but to move towards lvl 4, not lvl 3. What happens to giveaways I won for level 3. I can't get reported for winning them and then dropping down a level, now can I?

You don't risk a suspension, but the giveaway creator is allowed to reroll for that reason if they want.

Not the ones I win right now. The ones I won and received before. I would immediately un-enter any giveaways that are above my level, if I am not that level anymore. Thank you for the answer as always, Tempete!
Now to try to get level 3 again by making some more gibs!! :D

Dropped for me as well from level 3 to level 2. Was just about to enter some level 3 giveaways when I realised. "What, need level 3, but I am level 3? Oh!"

Also due to your How to Survive giveaway I guess.
Maybe the bundler forgot to add the Storm Warning edition and only added it to the list recently.

Shadow Warrior got retroactively bundled from Nov 4, 2014:

This is really interesting. Someone know why it happened? It was never bundled and its lowest price was $3.99 (90% off )
Nov 4, 2014 I can only see a 75% off discount in Steam http://store.steampowered.com/news/14862/
EDIT: It seems there was an Alienware coupon that let you buy the game with another 75% off, making a total of 93,75% off. Still not 95% off...

Also interesting : the app ID in the bundle list is 261260, but when creating a giveaway it is 233130

Mmm indeed my Shadow Warrior giveaway still counts as full price

base price in EU and EU2 is 25 EUR. With coupon applied it was 1.56EUR = 1,78USD. 1.78USD for 39.99USD CV is 95.5% off. Not to mention all other regions (excluding UK) getting even bigger discount, but on non-ROW copies - but in this example ROW copies were avaiable for under 5% of CV.

Oh I thought steamgifts only worked in USD, but it makes sense. Just specified that USD/EUR rate was 0.812320 during December 2014. That makes 1.56€ = $1,92 => 95.2%

Mine also dropped by 12 points today. I don't think there is anyway to see the progression/regression of CV points per giveaway of game...It didn't seem like I got CV for one giveaway, metro last light complete... (I'm guessing something else went down in CV value at the same time.) It's going to be a long slog to level 5 I think :) But... makes me appreciate all the higher lvl members more! It will take awhile, but I'll get there eventually... came across this grumpy cat pic while searching for a gif...

Well said, it really makes appreciate higher level members more.
See you at level 5... eventually. :D

I've been level 5 for almost 2 months. Now it says that I'm level 4 and CV 4.48.
Real CV tool still shows that I should be level 5 with 5.14 CV.
I guess, or at least hope so, that this is some bug that will go away. Should I contact support? Does this happens a lot? Any suggestions?
