My profile says I've given away $30 of games, but since that was the case I've given 3 more games away. It never changed when I gave away Sinper Elite and it's not changed with my 2 giveaways that ended today. All recipients have marked the games as recieved.

Have I missed something?

Games which have been in bundles or otherwise made widely available at little or no cost are added to the bundle list. Games in this list will not add more than 20% (1/5) of your non-bundle contributions, disregarding the first $25. For more detailed information, see this thread.

In order to receive any additional value from your current bundle gifts, partial or otherwise, you will need to contribute more in non-bundle games.

You need a FAQ, people are constantly asking the same questions

There is a FAQ, and while it is a bit dated, people don't read it.

I suppose one option would be to have the system check the user's CV when they're gifting a bundled game, and if it won't increase their CV at all, display a red warning saying "NOTE: This giveaway will not increase your CV. To see why, read THIS thread."

Not to mention it's nearly impossible to find the answer to this specific question.

Trust me, if I had the power to change ANYTHING to make this question happen less often, I'd use it.

Yep, apparently you have. No offense. Only a certain % of your CV will count if all you give away are bundle games. I looked at your giveaways, and the majority of them are bundles. I think the limit is $30, but it grows if you give away non-bundled as well. I'm not exactly sure of how it works, but there's definitely a CV limit concerning bundled games.

After your first $30, games that have been given away in bundles can only count for 20% of the value of your non-bundled games. That is, if you'd given away $10 in non-bundled games, an additional $2 of your bundled value (20% of that) would be added to your CV, for a total CV of $42.

This is a compromise to discourage people from giving away huge numbers of bundled games to get massively-high CV (which would make CV fairly meaningless given the low price of some bundled games), without ignoring bundled giveaways entirely.

I wonder if there is some sort of search feature on these forums... I mean it's not ever used but still...
