Thank you for the feedback Daltonik. If I understood corretly, you're saying that I should publish a donation address for those willing to contribute to the prize pool. I've discussed also this issue on my previous thread[1] about the topic. Basically we could have three options:

• Option 1 - I would publish a donation address under my control - I would sign it - and whoever wanted could donate funds to it. When it was time to distribute the funds, I would personally send them to the winners. However, with this option, it would mean that users would have to trust me as someone who would distribute the funds when the contest ended. Some users could rightly say that I don't have any kind of trust in the forum to deal with other people donations and that they wouldn't feel very at ease with that;
• Option 2: Use a trusted escrow from the forum in order to deal with all donation related questions;
• Option 3 (the one that was chosen): Whoever wants to donate just needs to post in the thread and I'll update the initial post with the user name and amount promised to the prize pool. When the contest ended, I would do the math and post a table with the distribution needed in order for the winners to receive their money.

At the end of the day it was just a matter of making sure that users were confident in the option chosen and considering that I don't have any trust established here, we ended up going for the third option as it seemed a balanced one.

Looking forward to see it! Just a minor correction, make sure you bake a pie and not a cake .
