Anything with asterisk is subject to bundle CV calculation no matter if it's a key or a gift.

Question: do i get full value fir crusader kings 2?? I got it from pre ordering europa universalis 4, but it says ck2 has an asterisk for being part of bundled group..

Nope. It does not matter how the game has been acquired or how it's sent - any games marked with an asterisk(/appearing in this list). Of course, you should not let that stop you from giving it - someone will still be very grateful to receive it :)

still if you didnt buy it in a bundle you feel cheated

If you ceate a giveaway while the game is not on the bundle game list, it is very annoying you make it bundle game when the giveaway ends.

It goes off when the giveaway started, not when it ends (if you made a giveaway for say terraria a week ago that was still going on when the new humble bundle hit, it wouldn't be bundled for you, same goes for massive abused price discounts). The bundle list isn't updated automatically either so there so it may take a day or so for games to be added.
If you're worried a game could be added to the bundle list in the next humble bundle or something, start the giveaway late evening in north america time zones, most bundles start in the morning/after lunch.

The bundle system is explained here, which is linked to in the OP.
As for which games will "give something" (by which I'm assuming you mean CV, and not the joy of the receiver), all games marked with an asterisk (all the game in this list) are classed as bundle games.
Any non-bundle game will give you full CV.

Ever gave away Orion? It was Dino Horde, then... huh, forgot XD... now it's Prelude... Still same game - but cost $0.99 now, and was something like $15 up 'till today.
I'm in the same boat, but - meh... What bothers me - I still have 2 copies in inventory from 4-pack that I've bought on sale - for something like $12 (facepalm)... And if nobody wanted it before - sure no one will want it now... sigh...

So now the copy of Monaco that I bought in a 4-Pack at the regular price on Steam counts shit towards my contributions. That's a shame.
Well. I can live with it..

Nvm, it did count as a $15 contribution. Apparently the system recognizes where keys are from?

first $25 of bundled games (those with *) count as non-bundled

We rolled out a few important updates to the site today.
The first major change is the way contributor values are calculated. In short, the update limits giveaways that might have originated from a bundle to 20% of your total value (Note: Giveaways created prior to a bundle always receive full value). Please review the threads from earlier in the week for the full details. Keep in mind, we'll continue to improve this system as time goes on.
There's no longer a restriction on what games can be given away, assuming they're not guest passes or beta keys. Anything found in the drop down menu when creating a giveaway is allowed. If you're gifting a game from a bundle, please review that bundle's terms of service to ensure you have permission to do so. If you believe a giveaway needs to be removed, please use the report button. There's no reason to post accusations in the comments, and users doing so may be suspended for inappropriate behavior. We'll review reported giveaways, and remove them if necessary. The new system will ensure contributor values are not overly inflated by bundle games.
Thanks to everyone in the community for all the feedback the past week, and I believe we created a system that's fair for everyone. It still leaves room for improvement, and there are a number of great suggestions in the previous thread we'll be exploring in the coming weeks.
