Some general organizational tips:

* Keep a very clear timeline
* Have a whip who makes sure the timeline is kept - but not necessarily
voting member of the jury.
* Deadline is October 31 - then you *must* submit your nominations to the
European jury!
* Organize a real life meeting for the jury (room, coffee, tea, cookies and
some soda - no alcohol :P & travel reimbursement ) and lock the door
* Give a small gift to the jurors and all other volunteers

Hope that helps,

>  What we did was:
>
> First each jurymember had 1 month time to watch the 12500 pictures (I did
> this on commons, other with some tools i believe), all 5 jurymembers had to
> make a selection of 100 pictures. The 5 jurymembers together got like 350
> unique pictures.
> We came together one evening and watched those 350 pictures, we voted which
> pictures we wanted to select and which we didn't want (if 3 jurymembers said
> OK it was to the next round). This way we came to something like 40
> pictures. We looked closer to these 40 and this way selected our winners.

> The way i watched 12.500 pictures: My idea was that the pictures had to
> jump out. So I scrolled to the commons cat (took 3-4 hours) and copied every
> picture which jumped out (some jumped out but had a very bad quality). My
> first selection can be found here:
> http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Basvb/500 (500 pictures). This
> selection I brought down to 70 in 3 or 4 steps: selecting the better
> pictures every time until I went under the 100.
