Just 1 question... If you are going to use 50% of the $5000 USD worth of shares to the lottery winner, why didn't you just transfer ~ $2,500 and do 100% of that to the lottery winner.. Is there a plan for the other 50% or is that just yours? (Just trying to see if there's anything else up your sleeves! lol)

50% of the BTC held at that address will be distributed weekly. This is to cut down on volatility and ensure that even if no block is found by P2Pool, there will still be a lottery distribution.

Right, I understood that much.. I was just wondering about the other 50% that isn't distributed weekly to the lottery winner..

50% of that will be donated to the next week's winner. The entire BTC amount at the address will get cut in half every week. I don't think it will result in any sort of funds building up and will only reduce volatility.
