Assuming equal chances of getting a particular level of good or bad reaction:

Total dis/advantage cost = Cost of the best Good Reputation possible + Cost of the worst Bad Reputation possible.

Slap a -5% or -10% Nuisance Effect on it to represent the uncertainty element.

If final cost works out to 0 points, treat it as a Quirk.

Otherwise, you have to weight the likelihood of any given level of good/bad Reputation occurring, as Anaraxes suggested.
