cob:
Yes I read your white paper about an hour ago. Helped but i'm looking for something realllly simplified just to visualise it first, then add some complexity to it.

Now what i don't get is how proof of stake works. Does anyone know of a good explanation floating somewhere online? Video, article, thread?
Something basic, 101, for dummies.

Thanks in advance!

There is no single proof-of-stake system.   I have a white paper in Transactions as Proof of Stake posted on this forum. 

I recommend googling 'Ripple Consensus Video' for a tutorial on how Ripple operates without Proof of Work.  We will be combining both strategies (Consensus + Proof of Stake)
