There is a very important mistake on this page of the calypso website http://www.planetcalypso.com/opportunities/
It states that CLD holders are entitled to a % of the gross revenue.
Gross revenue means BEFORE paying prizes (since this is a marketing expense).
In case MA deducted the prize money from the payout; which actually would artificially deflate the gross revenue; this would have to accounted for as two separate operations to determine the gross revenue.
Which means that either the website is wrong; or PPC committed fraud; legally speaking.
But wait, there is more. Since PWC approved this; someone should contact them for explanation.
Someone speaking Swedish?

There are a total of 60,000 Calypso Land Deeds. Fifty percent of the gross Planet Partner revenue from Planet Calypso is divided evenly among all CLDs. Thus, one CLD entitles its holder to 1/60000 of the weekly payout.
Audited revenue numbers, January - June 2012:
Revenue sharing for Planet Calypso were as shown in this table for January - June 2012. Gross revenue numbers were audited by PwC (PriceWaterhouseCoopers), Göteborg, Sweden, in August 2012.
