when they say event ends at 9pm oso I knew will end in disaster oredi. Just imagine the Sony events I've been to, only 50 participants takes us about 1.5 hours to upload our pics then another 1-2 hours for the judges to make choice. How did Canon think they can cope with 2000 ppl if they didn't stop pic submissions by about 3pm?

if each person take 1.5 minutes to upload 1 photo. it'll take about 5 minutes to upload 3 photo, not counting delays.

2000 x 5 minutes = 10000 minutes (166.66hrs)

total time is reduced by # of computers.

based on the schedule,
3:00 pm Photo Downloading
8:00 pm Prize Announcement & Presentation

so that's 5 hours. screening the pictures won't be easy, so assuming judges are super fast to decide in 1.5 hrs. this means that of the 5 hrs, the photos must be uploaded ALL within 3.5hrs.

so from the 166.66hrs to reduce to 3.5hrs, you'll need about 48 computers.

that also we not consider the time people take to sit, connect. upload. leave. and so on.

aiyah blabbering liao........
