Question
Apparently jungle creeps accumulate gold and exp somehow and eventually receive a Bountifull Treasure buff, letting you know they've maxed out. How does this work exactly? The more details that can be provided in the answer the better, pretend I started playing yesterday and educate me.
Answer
Basically you've already described what happens. When the jungle camps spawn the gold and exp rewards are set to a certain amount. If no one kills them for a while, the reward on the biggest monster in the camp goes up gradually over time. When you finally do kill it, your gold and exp gained will be higher. At a certain point, the reward doesn't increase anymore and the Bountiful Treasure buff is shown on the biggest monster.
The point of this is so going to gank someone and not getting the kill doesn't hurt your jungling too much. If the gold amounts didn't change, going for a champion kill and failing would reduce the gold you would end up with by a lot and it would be more risky. This way, it's almost always worth it to try ganks frequently (depending on your team situation and the champion you're playing).
