About Me: Currently finishing up my Bachelors in Computer Engineering at Purdue University. Looking for full time positions beginning June 2015. Really interested in the connected hardware space and consumer electronic design. I've done everything from programming embedded devices to building supercomputers and I'm willing to look for jobs in other areas.
Here is the premise: Anyone can create an event and based on the type and duration its assigned a score. Once the person attends the event they are given a secret keyword to prove they were actually at the event. Then they go back online and enter the keyword and get points.
The idea of the points is to use them to enter contests for prizes and such, hopefully making attending events more enticing.
I'm not so sure the gamification is worth it. If the event is good enough it should warrant attendance based on a persons interest. Anyone have any thoughts on this?
