Reply to comment by i8abug in The Gamification of Everything Is No Fun Adrian Hon’s book “You’ve Been Played” warns against the abuses of game logic in work and politics. by donnygel

Maybe I should have said accomplish goals at the expense of employees? Like you bust your ass to help double profits, CEO gets a gold plane and you get 2 slices of pizza.

Oh I see. So you see gamification as a way of making employees more effective without increasing their real world rewards, which feels unfair. I suppose that is likely the goal of gamification at work in a lot of instances. Kind of sucks that the extra money often doesn't get shared.
