Luckily I am a computer scientist however it is extremely hard to keep up with everything going on in the blockchain space.

There must be some validity behind the idea of weighted random turn-taking though since it is similar to how the next version(serenity) of ethereum will work based

I think the difference is how they choose whose turn it will be next. There's a big difference between a central authority picking people to take turns, and what Ethereum is working on.
