We've done this at VETO, when there has been a mirror and the two winners play each other in the "Trans-Canada Championship." Perhaps Peter McCorquodale might be able to explain it better, but as far as I remember, we just set up a three-way call between my house, the room at Simon Fraser, and Brian Hight in Texas, who volunteered to moderate. At my house, we pressed different buttons on separate phones, while in Simon Fraser I believe they had a speakerphone and used their regular buzzers. You can read the results, which contain "Technical Notes" that might help you: http://www.caql.org/results/trans00.html (2000 TCC) http://www.caql.org/results/trans01.html (2001 TCC) It doesn't actually allow a lockout system, unfortunately, but the "buzzers" were recognizable different enough that it wasn't a problem, at least when I played. I hope that helps.
