I don't think it's really consistent.  Sometimes local work seems to
count for Kingdom awards, sometimes it doesn't.  And I'm not talking
about the difference between living in an independent shire or a
barony.  I mean within the same local group.  Mostly people get a Pel
after holding a Kingdom office, but sometimes they don't.  And that
doesn't seem to be consistent with how well they did it.  Some folks get
AoAs in 6 months.  Others take years while doing the same level of work
or more.  I don't think we really have a standard.

And please, let's not rehash the old "merit badge" discussion.  I was
just commenting on what I'd noticed.
