If a game lowers it's price, my account value does so..?

That's how it's intended to work.

Yeah thats how it works from what I can tell.

Now, I know the intent of the community is not to up your contributor numbers (although a few have tried to take advantage of the system lately), but doesn't that kind of discourage larger giveaways? Games do not stay $50 or $60 forever.

Good post, Miguel.

Well, yeah... but I think it's the spirit of the moment what makes your contribution good, and so it should be respected, right? Think of games like TF2, CS:GO, and such... maybe at a moment they were worth 50, 20 pts... and someday BAM! they go free. But at the moment someone posted a giveaway including those games, they had a certain value that everyone took for granted. Just thinking if you can get a Daily Deal game and retain it's original value score-wise, it would be cool to preserve the price games were offered at a certain moment of a giveaway.
P.S. This is NOT whine at all, I'm just curious about it and expressing my POV.
