<div><br />
</div><div><a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/geekwire/~3/PyTEKWuXtHI/dreaded-g-word-gamification">The dreaded ‘G’ word:</a><a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/geekwire/~3/PyTEKWuXtHI/dreaded-g-word-gamification"> Gamification</a>: "<br />
<div><a href="http://www.bigdoor.com/"><img alt="" height="115" src="http://cdn.geekwire.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/gamification-graphic-300x115.jpg" title="gamification-graphic" width="300" /></a>I’ve been spending a portion of the week at the Casual Connect conference in downtown Seattle, a three-day extravaganza which highlights everything you could possibly imagine about the casual games business. This year, one of the hot topics of discussion has been <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gamification">“gamification,”</a> the concept of rewarding users with virtual coins, badges or more for participating in online communities.<br />
<br />
Nearly everywhere I go, the buzzword pops up. And, it is worth noting, not always in a positive way.<br />
<br />
<div style="width: 210px;"><a href="http://cdn.geekwire.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/DavidRoberts.jpg"><img alt="" height="200" src="http://cdn.geekwire.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/DavidRoberts.jpg" title="DaveRoberts" width="200" /></a><br />
PopCap CEO Dave Roberts</div><br />
PopCap CEO Dave Roberts <a href="http://www.geekwire.com/2011/dave-roberts-sold-popcap-13b-hates-10-casual-games-biz">kicked off his keynote address</a> on Tuesday with 10 things he hates about the casual games business.<br />
<br />
The #1 item on his list?<br />
<br />
You guessed it: Gamification.<br />
<br />
On Wednesday, at a press event, PopCap co-founder Jason Kapalka elaborated on Roberts’ remarks, telling GeekWire that he doesn’t have a problem with the concept of gamification.<br />
<br />
In fact, he said rewarding customers has been around for a longtime, stretching back to the frequent flyer programs which are still very much in existence today.<br />
<br />
What Kapalka can’t stand about gamification is the name. After all, he holds games as sacred products.<br />
<br />
Creating a term like gamification does more to harm to the business because it actually dilutes down what a game means. And, in his view, a game has one simple goal: to be fun.<br />
<br />
Foursquare and other similar services might be popular (and even useful for some), but they aren’t necessarily games, he said.<br />
<br />
The term certainly has come on strong in the past 12 months. Scott Dodson, chief operating officer at <a href="http://www.bobberinteractive.com/">Bobber Interactive</a>, a Seattle company that brings game mechanics to personal finance, recalls doing a Web search for the term about two years ago. Google returned just four results, he said.<br />
<br />
Now, according to a recent search, there are about <a href="http://www.google.com/search?aq=f&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8&q=gamification">1.6 million</a> results.<br />
<br />
At this year’s Casual Connect conference there’s no shortage of panels about the concept: <em>“Smart Gamification: Seven Core Concepts for Creating Compelling Experiences:”</em> or <em>“Gamification for Everyone: What’s your Strategy?”</em> or <em>“Gamification and Social TV: The New Way to Watch.”</em><br />
<br />
The term has gotten such a bad rap that venture capitalist Tim Chang — an investor in Badgeville — called gamification the “dreaded G word” during his talk on Wednesday.<br />
<br />
I thought I had actually escaped the gamification concept when I cut out of the conference on to do some work at a Starbucks.<br />
<br />
Some folks from the conference sat down at the table behind me and started talking about their new service. And what was it about?<br />
<br />
That’s right: Gamification.<br />
<br />
