>whole Facey McFaceFace thing is a bit old and tired now.

Believe me, at NERC (the people who did the original competition) it got old about 5 minutes after the syggestion was posted. It didn't help that the whole thing was done in a rush and the people who bought the process from an external body didn't actually have a clue and neither did the external body leaving the poor people that had to administer it a whole heap of cans of worms.

Err.. allegedly.

It also doesn't help that the muppet who suggested the name then copyrighted it and any use by NERC outside of the original purpose would result in a large bill. Because the commissioning people forgot to add any legal T's & C's to the whole process.
