How does the submitting shares work? Each new block requires a new number and new shares correct? Shares generated by trying to solve block x can't be used to solve block y right? If somebody wants to point me in the right direction I don't mind doing my own research, albeit it might confuse me more.

Yes, every new block requires miners to try to solve that block, so you start over searching for the correct answer each block. But being a pool, it keeps track of how many hashes you have submitted to try to solve each block, even old ones somebody else solved. So even though we might not find a block for awhile, the pool is keeping track of how much work you are doing/ have been doing, and when we finally solve a block, you get rewarded for all the hard work/hashes you have been doing.

Here is a good page where it will show all the miners and you can look at their hash rate to see where you fit in.

it might take you a few more days to climb but with

I'm guessing, but think you'll end up getting about .15 + BTC per block solved.
