Give it some more time to see if you get the entries if CV is your worry.
To answer the original question, no. Just delete it and give the reason as "accident". I deleted one recently when I selected the wrong end time, no big deal.

'I accidentally created a giveaway, or the gift is no longer available, how do I delete my giveaway?
When viewing your giveaway, you'll see a button with the name Delete Giveaway in the left column. Clicking this button will let you specify a reason for the deletion, and it'll walk you through the process of creating a support ticket. If the giveaway is still open, the ticket will be automatically approved and the giveaway removed. If the giveaway has already ended, then the ticket will need to be approved by a member of support.'
From the FAQ, that's only information given about deleting a giveaway

Number of entries has nothing to do with the CV.
Edit: WRONG. It does.
Comment has been collapsed.
It does. You need to get 5 entries to get any.
Edit: Actually, I think 5 is for private, group and whitelist GA's, with public GA's still needing 2 entries.

My SR4 ga ended with 2 entries and I still got CV for it, so I don't think that's legit
Comment has been collapsed.
nope but you will lose 1GA, and why you put 5lvl on humble game? ^^

Maybe so that people who contributed up to level 5 and more can get a chance to win this game?
Comment has been collapsed.
Because there is 5 days left and you think that all people will enter at once..

i dont think this
dont guess whats in my mind pls
i see at the other games from this bundle that a lot more ppl entered yet
so i ask in advance for the case that the entries wont get more
i would do it then for lvl 4 instead of 5

dont worry there will be more entries :) at least 50-100 if not more :)
Comment has been collapsed.
all of the above
plus - you need a valid reason for deleting.
not sure what is valid.

Just a thought, you do know that as a bundled game you only get 15% of the value so it will only be $3 anyway if you get the entries?

^This^
- And who create GA for CV ? It sounds terrible :((
Comment has been collapsed.

....

^ this and this. (UraniumFalconPunch/JE9NA)
benutzername, you'll get your 5 entries and you'll get your 3$ CV. I can bet on it everything, just wait one or two days and you'll see. end of story. :)

To get better chance to win.... join group :)
And if you create GA for CV only then i recommend to you not advertise it in this site ,because someone will add you to blacklist and it reduces your chances of winning :D

well sure i have fun with giving others a pleasure too
but if someone gives away a lot of games, this person still will enter high lvl games and not saying i gave not away for this so i wont enter high lvls...

Then you need to create non bundle games :) And Hitman is bundle game and you can buy it for 1 $ so you will not lose much :)
Comment has been collapsed.
Your level will not increase much since the game is a bundle game anyway. Its up to you if you want to delete it but you will loose a giveaway slot.

you mean in the future i can create one game less at the same time?

Please read this: http://www.steamgifts.com/discussion/RqwrY/contributor-levels
" 2. If a giveaway is invite only, or for a whitelist or Steam group, it will only add value towards your level if it receives 5 or more entries. We made this change to combat small groups of friends from attempting to cheat the contributor system, and to encourage users to expand the reach of their giveaways. The new whitelist feature offers an easy way to target a larger audience, and you can combine it with small Steam groups to receive a greater number of giveaway entries if needed. "
Since your GA is public, I don't think you will get no CV.

i know that, read it like 5 times since V2 release
i just asked in advance if anybody has xperience with deleting
o and to the thing with encourage for higher reach i have to say:
maybe not so much at V2
but at the old one it seemed to me that 95% of all public GAs where for all lvls(CV heights)

You may choose to delete a giveaway without consequence. You will only lose the giveaway slot.
Comment has been collapsed.
dun delete it, it will make them feel good that they won a GA with 25% winning chance
Comment has been collapsed.
5 days left. not sure why you think you won't get anymore entries. it's only level 5, so you will probably go way above 100, even with this game...
Comment has been collapsed.
Still 5 days, wait before you delete
This is probably buried way back for many people yet.
The closer it gets to end, the more entries you will get
Comment has been collapsed.
No, but you should wait a little bit so more people can see the giveaway.
Comment has been collapsed.
so ppl who think its not about CV should start a petition to get rid of the CV
whats it for when its not about it
Comment has been collapsed.
Contributor Value (CV) is an incentive that makes giving away games more rewarding. Some people give away games for the purpose of gaining access to higher-leveled giveaways. This isn't a bad thing, and if anything encourages the creation and successful delivery of more giveaways.

will i get banned for deleting this
http://www.steamgifts.com/giveaway/Engq6/hitman-absolution
cause there are so less entries that i dont get CV for it
