Hi Peter,
Answering your questions:
*How many pix will it work with? - 15,000 seemed to
work ok.
There's virtually no limit... just bear in mind that the more images you
get, the more "tokens" you should generate if you don't want to have
your juri individuals to evaluate an unbearable number of photos....
*Can "random voters" participate, or do they
need to log in, i.e. can
a big group be invited to participate.
That's up to you. You can either generate dozens (hundreds?) of tokens,
or do it like we did: setup a single token for the "Community". Of
course if you ask 100 persons to share a token, it's possibly that you
see odd things, like "voting" wars hehehe
*How are the votes totalled up (including all voters)?
Not sure to what phase/pass you are referring to... there's no voting in
the first pass, just a pre-selection for the presential meeting. Just
then it will be possible to vote, and it's kind of a SUM of weights
(given by each juri member).
*Do the pix all have to be transfered from Commons to
another site, or
can it be all done on Commons?
It *should* be done directly through Commons.
Just the presential voting was kind of optional, just because I feared
we could miss an Internet connection there.
*How did it work in practice - were there any glitches
last year?
You mean for us, specifically with this tool? Can't remember,
actually.... but it's possible, since the tool was made in a couple of
hours :-)

I only got this after my last post. This looks like
the best tool
I've seen by far!
Can we get lots more details?

Greetings all,
We had such a tool running on our website. Briefly:
* We create tokens for each juri;
* We randomly assign images for each token (each will get
TOTAL/TOKENS images approx.), putting them on a "bucket level 1";
* Then, the token is sent to the juri person, which will use it to
browse through the gallery of his assigned photos, and the selection
process begins.
* The selection process consists in 2 passes:
-- The juri person either "promotes" interesting images to "bucket
2" or "demotes" uninteresting images to "bucket 0" (to mark
them as
viewed).
-- Most probably, in the end the juri person has selected too much
images for bucket 2, so the last step is to demote images from
bucket 2 to 1 again.
In the end, the bucket 2 should have the number we established (50)
for him to have present on the juri presencial meeting.
The tool was further extended for helping during the juri presencial
meeting: people gather somewhere, and the tool merges the 50
selected photos from each, and then a voting mechanism is due: each
juri present will assign a classification.
At the end, the selection list is downloaded (for mobility) and
ordered to clear out exequo's (each juri will change his vote
according to the discussion).
You can have a "status" from last year, here:

And I believe you can try things (this is a "running copy" of the
old site):
