I'll try my best to explain how it would work for FFR. Since we don't have a client-based game and instead flash/browser based, it's harder for us to do this method. My idea was to have all submissions uploaded to an "Approval Engine", where the community goes and play them; giving notes, suggestions, comments etc. Then when a chart has enough of whatever (thumbs up's, stars or whatever), it's sent to a judge where s/he then approves it for ranking.

It gives the community a chance to have a say in what they find acceptable, and includes them in the process. It also takes a huge work load off of the judging crew, because by the time they see a chart, it will have gone through numerous amounts of changes and all they would need to do is fine polish it and approve it for ranking.
