I had to moan sooner or later

I am viewing the incoming Prestige system with not a small amount of dread.
I am a DC², and the notion of the beaucratic maintenance of around 30-40 characters' prestige fills me with horror and annoyance.
Worse still, I've not really got a clue what exactly it is beyond second hand rumour - nor had any kind of input to it when I'm expected to manage the damn thing - and I have to manage it when it comes out.
I became DC as we needed someone to organise venues, payments, ads, reports, complaints and suchlike. Not to keep track of everyones house points so they could make goobier characters.
Problem is I don't really know anyone else (immediately to mind) who could be DC or I'd probably quit DC in protest when the system comes in.
I hate beaucracy.

we get to dp a prestige CV?!? this could get fun...

This is where things could start to get difficult. There will be people out there trying to claim prestige for the smallest things. However, I have complete faith in Robin, to whack those ones around the head repeatedly until they get the message. On top of that, I doubt there'd be any of the kind in Cambridge.
Anywhere else, though, I dread to think...

Where can I see a copy of the new system?

[robinbloke.livejournal.com]

Pass.

Can I have a question regarding the evolution of the toilet roll instead please?

[sherbetsaucers.livejournal.com]

How long IS the standard roll of toilet paper?

[robinbloke.livejournal.com]

Average roll = 320 sheets
Average sheet = 15 cm

= 48 metres

Wow. Your so much sadder than I am. :D
