Right then, here's an idea. For every good deed you do, you get a point or points, depending on the 'goodness'. Conversely, for every bad deed you commit, you get a negative score. What should the scoring system be, however, and how would you/various celebrities fare? How is your personal points tally looking now? Furthermore, when you meet your maker, will you be in the black or in the red and will you be travelling upwards to the heavenly host, harp music & a bottomless bowl of treats or will you be plummeting downwards to get burned, tortured and forced to read Jordan’s fourth autobiography while listening to St. Winifred’s School Choir played backwards forever & a day? More importantly, how would today's celebs, sportspeople, politicians, pop stars, actors and DJ****-TV presenter**** philanthropists get on? Random spurious examples up for debate...

Charity work: +5 points per half marathon/parachute jump/day of wearing daft costume & rattling tin about/donation to local shop/purchase in local shop Bringing up a child to be thoughtful, polite & considerate: +5 points Winning an Olympic medal: +200 points Being comfortable in front of a TV camera, despite having no discernible talent yourself (i.e. Jonathan Ross, Fern Cotton etc): +10 points Feeding the woman next door’s cat when she’s away on holiday: +5 points Going to school regularly: +5 points Active service in the army: +100 points Working in a charity shop: +10 points

_Any views? (For reference, I’m currently +1000, give or take)_
This is how the National Lottery should work. Anyone buying a ticket automatically 'opts in' to being followed 'Truman Show' style at any point in the next ten years. They then unwittingly earn additional money for good behaviour or are contracted to community service or hard labour for 'neutral' or illegal behaviour.
Great way to provide entertainment and revatalise the Big Brother format whilst making the community a better place and ridding the streets of the scum that infest most towns.
