TheGreenskin just pointed out the following vid from Paul Barnett explaining what we recently discovered — the contribution system is broken. I have to say I’m quite happy they acknowledged it’s bugged, and fortunately a fix is on the way.

Perhaps you already caught the following “fix” in the 1.1 patch notes:

Keep/Fortress Contribution: After lengthy evaluation and feedback from the players we have made several changes to the contribution system in place for the Public Quests associated with Keep/Fortress sieges. These changes will encourage more participation and reward players participating in Keep/Fortress sieges.

Although it doesn’t get much into details, it’s probably one of the upcoming fixes which will hopefully set our minds at ease. Although Paul says the contribution system with Public Quests is working perfectly, personally I wouldn’t mind if they take another look at it: sometimes it’s just messed up and no matter how hard I bust my ass off I can’t get any decent loot, and other times I’m hardly contributing anything and end up first.
