[Need Explanations] No points for my contributor level

A game rated no value means it will give you no points towards your level because the game was probably massively given away for free.

The game was given away for free in a mass giveaway elsewhere.
You get no CV for free games and reduced CV for bundled games.

Welcome, btw ^^

The game was in a mass giveaway, so the CV value has been stripped from it.

You can see if the game's got any CV value when creating the giveaway and setting the name of the game you're giving away.

One asterisk (*) means that the giveaway will give you 15% of the original value as CV due to it being in a bundle previously
Two asterisks (**) means that the giveaway will give you no CV at all due to being in a mass giveaway previously.

Oh ok, thanks for this clear explanation :)
Thanks !

Welcome to SG

Just adding to what zeruel132, the list of no value, and 15% games are updated manually, so there might be a bit of a delay between a game being given out for free and it added to the list.
And if a game is added to a bundle, or is sold very cheap somewhere, it gets the 15% CV treatment.

Just things worth keeping in mind. But don't stress out too much about contributor value, give what you can and want to give is my advice. Most people mostly give away leftover keys from bundles they've bought.

your english skills are fine.
the problem is the faq, because it's written in "half baked guidelines where people need to guess what's going on". ^^
